Nice one. I'm taking the under.

I noticed that there are a bunch of markets that are "closed" but not "resolved". Does that mean they haven't paid out?

Yes, "closed" - means not paid out yet. I wanted to talk to you about it. Can you please help me resolve the sports markets, not very familiar with the results. Here are the closed ones:

https://beta.predyx.com/market/chiefs-win-afc-championship https://beta.predyx.com/market/bills-win-afc-championship https://beta.predyx.com/market/ravens-win-afc-championship https://beta.predyx.com/market/lions-win-nfc-championship https://beta.predyx.com/market/jamarr-chase-wins-top-flex-2024 https://beta.predyx.com/market/celtics-win-emirates-nba-cup https://beta.predyx.com/market/birds-of-a-feather-grammy-song-of-the-year

And the other closed ones, I will start resolving it. https://beta.predyx.com/market/major-election-riots-in-2024-2025 - this will resolve to NO.

Sure

The Chiefs won the AFC Championship so

"Chiefs win AFC Championship" resolves "Yes"
"Bills win AFC Championship" resolves "No"
"Ravens win AFC Championship" resolves "No"

The Lions didn't even make it to the NFC Championship, so "Lions win NFC Championship" resolves "No"

The Bucks won The Emirates Cup, so "Celtics Win Emirates NBA Cup" resolves "No"

I checked a couple of sources for the top flex outcome and both had Jamarr Chase with the highest score, but they also had different totals for him. I'd like to defer to @Public_N_M_E for whether Chase was the leading Flex player this past season.

It looks like "Not Like Us" won Song of the Year at the Grammy's, so "Birds of a Feather Grammy Song of the Year?" should resolve "No".

Didn't matter in the long run 😜 but yes it was chase.

Also, should we extend the markets timeline, no FBI director has been picked yet. https://beta.predyx.com/market/kash-patel-fbi-director

That's fine with me. I'll buy some Patel shares.

Ok, I'm going to extend this market then. By when do you think the FBI director will be decided?

I don't know. I haven't seen that it's scheduled yet, but they are starting to work their way through the confirmation votes, so it should be resolved by the end of the month.

ok cool, I extended it to Feb 28th.
