I have a question


 I can see why you would believe the outcome makes a difference to suchmoon and eddiee13, this is 0.1 BTC we're talking about Cheesy But you all seem to be behaving as if the outcome of the election itself is actually going to make a meaningful difference to the direction of the USA? Do you really believe it? What substantive reasoning is there for such a belief?

Trump if re elected will have 7 of 9 SC judges picked by him.

Recent events have made it pretty clear that the Dems would 100% let the USA be overrun by illegal immigrants. Trump would/is doing enough that we may only be 50% overran.

We now have a funded Space Force.

So yes, there are substantive differences...

Did I do that? I thought I was just joking around (making up silly local rules and all)..

never properly signed a staked addy
Wait, what? Smiley

You signed https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/18pTKHyCFyr5Gk3LHN4wKke1hUaT3wUnjb
Which is proof of funds, cool..
But I was thinking more along the lines of..
irrefutable proof that you're the actual owner.
Old staked addy, for proof of identity, type of thing..

Pretty common procedure for authorizing deals where their is risk involved, to rule out possible hacked/sold accounts, make sure you are actually dealing with whatever identity you think you trust, and to be able to prove the other party accepted the signed terms incase you have to bust their balls about it in the future by showing the signed message..

But, I'm not suspicious that you are hacked, and I don't think you'll be coming back with "I was haxxored, I didn't agree to that!"..

You don't need to do anything, the deal is done..
I waved this formality in your case, but probably wouldn't for anyone else..

Yeah, I really do believe that the outcome of elections make a difference in the direction of the USA.  Presidents decide which laws are passed, how they're enforced, who enforces them, how our taxes are calculated, how our taxes are used, who we go to war with, who we go to war for, they negotiate trade deals with other countries.  I could go on.

Is 'the president doesn't matter' really a thing?

Thanks eddie13 for steering this back on topic, somewhat. This is about the 2020 election and bets. I would have though 3 years was enough to air your grievances over the previous election but apparently not.

someone named SM never properly signed a staked addy but I didn't want to cry

Wait, what? Smiley

Let me know what I need to do.

I think an argument could be made that presidents are just sockpuppets anyway and it doesn't really even matter..
Would you like stakes sir Banks?
What size in which direction?

It's not actually old.

Well, it needs to be old for me to trust this account has been owned by the same identity for a long time, basically..
That is the point..

Or no loan for you.. (simplified, I'm loaning you .01 so you can pay me .02)

If you don't qualify for a loan then you need to place your bet in escrow.. (A 1+ year zero interest no collateral loan is very generous IMO, very reasonable terms sir)
If you fail that then local rules apply and you can't post in this thread after it covers 11 bets..

Over..

Ok.  I might not sign it till the weekend though.  Gotta boot my old desktop.

Old desktop?
Anything 2 years old is acceptable.. (Though someone named SM never properly signed a staked addy but I didn't want to cry)

It's not actually old. Just got a sweet laptop from work in October and I got used to it.

.01 is fine.  Public arb is fine.
 There should be some sort of fee for going to arbitration

Ok fine, best arbitrator gets 5 merits..
Sign it @ .01 and I'll sign it and lets roll..

Who’s responsible for errors?

Last week, Baxter told The News 87 optical scanners broke on Election Day. He said many jammed when voters tried repeatedly to stuff single ballots into scanners, which can result in erroneous vote counts if poll workers don’t adjust counters.

“The city is responsible. Janice Winfrey is responsible,” Barrow said. “This didn’t happen because of crazy, dyslexic senior citizens who are working as poll workers, like they want to portray this. That’s people who are trying to deny responsibility.”

He has asserted on social media that Winfrey cost Clinton the election in Michigan.

Others said there could be benign explanations.

Detroit’s ballot was two pages because it included dozens of candidates for the local Board of Education. The number of pages can cause machines to jam and lead them to count too many ballots, said Genesee County Clerk John Gleason.


I did actually. Your quote doesn't offer compelling contrary information. What you have there is the opinion of one man and pure speculation. The part I quoted consisted of facts.

You didn't even read the whole quote did you?

Try reading more slowly, see if you can find find both county clerks and the guy that ran for mayor.

I feel like you have a bad habit of reading the first bit of an article and then just assuming you know what  the entire article says.  Especially if it's something you might not agree with.

twitchy want it for [1.]0.01 or something?

Yeah I'll do .1 with you.

I'd prefer to pre pick an [2.]arbitrator

EcuaMobi, DarkStar_ , actmyname or marlboroza

1. I said .01 ... Unless we get some more action to match up.. I don't want to go too deep..

2. Public arbitration, same as the SM bet, or it isn't even worth it, though your arbitrator picks are very good..


.01 is fine.  Public arb is fine, but just picking one seems simpler.  There should be some sort of fee for going to arbitration either way though.  It keeps things simple and otherwise it's just a freeroll if things are close.

I feel like if the election is close, and the Democrat looks to have won, some weird stuff is going to happen and I don't want to have to argue to win a bet.

nutildah or twitchy want it for 0.01 or something? Sounds like you want some..
I don't want to put a whole lot into this but I may be open to some more small fun and organization..

Who all wants pieces of this? Maybe we can make it heppening up in here.. TS wanna take some of these or bankroll?

New local thread rule.. If you ain't got 5 on it, then get off it...

Yeah I'll do .1 with you.

I'd prefer to pre pick an arbitrator though to make things simple if something weird happens. And if it goes to arbitration loser has to pay them something reasonable.

I'm fine with just copying suchmoon/eddies terms and signing same message + arbitration.  Might need a few days to dig up an old private key though.

I'm fine with EcuaMobi, DarkStar_ , actmyname or marlboroza (just picked them of your trusted feedback)

nutildah .. want it for 0.01 or something?
I don't have the confidence that suchmoon does
10k sat?

I have 100 TATIANACOIN tokens and 5 Storj tokens in a Counterparty wallet, how about that?  Cheesy

I'm not a hodler -- I actually use BTC for what its for, so I don't keep much around, or in the same wallet. I'm spending the BTC I do have now within the next week, so I can't do BTC.

I won't place any bets right now.

No BTC?

Check back with me in June of 2020 once we get the nominations.

My opinion - If Joe Biden wins the nomination, I'd wager that he wins the election.

If Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren wins the nomination, Trump wins and carries the swing states for an electoral college victory.

look closely now..
But it wasn't magic.
Trump's election chances are not looking good
the fact that Democrats shoot themselves in the foot which 9 times out of 10 they will because they're clinically insane

So how much do you want to put up for or against MAGA 2020?
So me and suchmoon can start matching these orders.. But everyone from here on out takes a 1.3% spread just because 13..
twitchy an nutildah are grandfathered @ 1:1 .01, no spread..

Place your bets..

It depends. If Joe Biden wins the nomination, I think he beats Trump because Joe will pick up too many moderates and independents. That being said, if anyone other than Joe Biden wins, I think Trump takes the election. Interesting predicament because right now Joe holds the plurality of the democratic base, however, the moderate wing of the democratic party is not enough to take the cake because both Sanders and Warren's base total up more than Biden's support. Of course, Warren and Sanders can't both win so one of these candidates bases are going to have to cross over when one drops out which means Joe Biden can be beat.

This is why I won't place any bets right now. It all depends on who wins the nomination.
