My thesis is that Joshua's motivation is attention - visibility.

Ben's market had 226 traders. Joshua's is currently at 43, and with steady interaction in the comments.

I got 278 traders in a week from dumb luck alone. People love their meta-markets and thought experiments.

There is a risk that, in a month's time, seeing if Joshua will be as compromised as Ben was will be overshadowed by some other new hotness. But, with meta-metamarkets like this one springing up like mining shanties in a gold rush, I'm fairly confident that Joshua will get the attention he's craving.

@Odoacre Mom said it's my turn to play the Xbox. You think I'll get as many participants as Joshua or Ben?
