Well, then tell us when the cashout values will be calculated.

Folks here seem to think it'll just be a matter of when ABC/CBS/NBC/(FOX?) will all agree on the count.  I think you folks may not have been listening to what Trump's been threatening.

 

For movies, HSX has plenty of specification of how and when securities are cashed out.  For BIDEN/TRUMP, you've left that blank! You can't treat them like movies, so tell us just how you will treat them!

 

Why is asking for rule clarity being an a__?  When players ask for rule clarity, you give straightforward answers. So why not give us the straightforward rules for BIDEN/TRUMP without insult?

 

As for confusion, you seem to think that HSX can just magically use existint securities rules for BIDEN/TRUMP ... _that_ is confusing Real Life with HSX!

Investors need to be warned that their presidential options money will be tied up for two months longer than they may naively expect! (nm) Patient Player Aug 20, 23:10

THis is fake money, so unless we have a repeat of the 2000 election, this will not be an issue. ndmaster Aug 24, 11:15

Foresight Exchange has always been fake money, too, so why do you think there'd be a difference? (nm) Patient Player Aug 24, 23:25

Basically, once a winner is declared, its over. No need to wait on Congress finalizes it or whatever. ndmaster Aug 25, 22:45

Better re-read the Constitution. (nm) Patient Player Aug 28, 22:25

To be clear: am waiting for answer about how cashouts will be handled if Trump throws up a storm of e {nm} Patient Player Sep 02, 09:42

... storm of legal challenges that leave doubt about electoral totals for some time. Also, what if more than one group of electors from a Patient Player Sep 02, 09:50

AND re-read the descriptions of BIDEN and TRUMP! Their cashout values depend on _electoral votes_, not who wins! (nm) Patient Player Aug 28, 22:31

Perhaps you didn't catch that the legal challenges this time could be much, much worse than 2000. Patient Player Aug 24, 23:31

Legal challenges will only occur if it is close like in 2000 ndmaster Aug 25, 22:44

You seem to keep thinking that BIDEN and TRUMP are about win/lose. They're not. (nm) Patient Player Aug 28, 22:38

I know exactly what they are about. Electoral College votes. ndmaster Aug 30, 12:22

"Once the final tally ..." Just when do you think the tally will be final if Trump files a dozen legal challenges? {nm} Patient Player Sep 01, 20:47
