gollark: Ah, so they're just magicking it and it's not a problem according to you, I ße.
gollark: Computing those significantly in advance probably requires computing basically the entire state of the world, while as a person who presumably actually exists in said world you can just look them up.
gollark: You can annoy the predictor and make them need more CPU time by basing your prediction on facts like "what is the least significant bit of the latest block on the bitcoin blockchain" and "what is the value of [SOME STOCK MARKET PARAMETER]", depending on how early they fill the boxoids.
gollark: Regardless of what choice you make, the contents of the boxes are fixed, thus pick mildly more money. This probably sounds unsmart to you, which is either because you (and the server generally) are/is right, or because you fell into one side and now think it's obvious.
gollark: As I said, in general apparently both sides are split pretty evenly, have fairly convincing arguments each way, and both think that their answer is obvious and the other is wrong.
