Carrie Poppy: Oh my goodness. Jemima Packington, the Psychic from Bath, with a strange ability to predict the future by—are you ready?
Ross Blocher: (Laughs.) Yeah, I’m ready.
Carrie Poppy: Throwing asparagus spears into the air. And then based on how they land, she will be able to tell the future.
Ross Blocher: Asperomancy. Yeah, okay, alright.
Carrie Poppy: (Applauds.) Okay, here’s what she predicted. Again, with vegetables.
(They laugh.)
Prediction number one. “Separations and divorces are due within the royal family!”
Ross Blocher: Every time you hear one of these new predictions, just picture a little bundle of asparaguses falling to the ground and overlapping with each other.
I will resolve according to their evaluation in 2025 ("No" for a zero on their scale, "N/A" for one, and "Yes" for two)
With the podcast ending, I can no longer simply defer to the host's judgements for the resolution. Please vote in this poll if you have thoughts on how I should resolve these markets:
1,000
1.00@traders my resolution criteria for this market failed to account for the possibility that we wouldn't get ratings from Ross and Carrie, but with the podcast having ended that now seems pretty likely. Please vote in this poll to let me know if you'd prefer me to use my judgement instead, or just resolve this market N/A.
Either way, I will not trade in this market.
