BTW, what does following someone here do? For some reason, I can't find anything about this online.

I'm shocked that @JosiahNeeley rage quitting like he lost a video game and intentionally tanking the market wasn't the Smartest Money trade. Might be something wrong with the Manifold algorithm.

@zubbybadger The weirdest part is that Josiah did a small bet on another market later on, as if he was actually still trying to play.

@RobertGrosse You get notifications for comments by people you follow, not just if you are invested in the same market or are mentioned. And following the Salem account notifies you when they open a new market.

@1941159478 Thanks. Also, I can't believe this was chosen as "Proven Correct".

Josiah Neeley with quite possibly the worst trade of all time. Almost to the point where you question his motives. Almost. Would love to hear the explanation on that one

@zubbybadger Yeah, it was very weird. My guess is that for some reason, he became convinced that GDP<1% was a sure bet, and then after losing most of his money, decided to gamble everything left on a hail mary. And to be fair, if this market does somehow resolve YES, he'll shoot right to the top. It's just not going to happen.

@zubbybadger I'm just frustrated that Johnny and Mark managed to get all the loot rather than me. Why couldn't he have chosen a time when I was watching the market?
