The resolution contract
Fixed when the question was written — what happens is checked against this, not against vibes. Ambiguous? It resolves N/A and everyone is refunded.
- Resolution criteria
- YES if the story clearly centers Lucia as the primary lead (opens/closes on her, majority of narrative POV). Genuinely co-equal framing, or Jason-primary, resolves NO. Council adjudicates from a completed-story assessment.
- Source of truth
- Council assessment of completed story.
- Resolves
- Within 5 weeks of launch.
- N/A (refund) if
- Framing is judged genuinely co-equal by council consensus (which itself resolves NO, not N/A) — reserve N/A only for irreconcilable deadlock.
- Resolution deadline
- Nov 26, 2026
How payouts work
Parimutuel: all stakes pool together. When the question resolves, winners get their stake back plus a share of the losers’ points, proportional to stake weight. No house, no odds-setting — the crowd IS the odds.
