(not a request, just a market for fun)
Ball pit must be generally available to general attendees to count. It's allowed if someone besides the organizers brings one, as long as attendees are aware of it and able to use it.
General policy for my markets: In the rare event of a conflict between my resolution criteria and the agreed-upon common-sense spirit of the market, I may resolve it according to the market's spirit or N/A, probably after discussion.

Has a ball pit arrived? If so, who brought it?
"Please avoid bringing… a ball pit"

@Shelvacu relevant - "Will a trustworthy.ish user bring a ball pit to Manifest" and "Do trustworthy.ish users break rules more often than the average user?"
@firstuserhere to note: i’m not “trustworthy-ish.”
@Joshua to note: i’ll send you all my mana and tweet “i’m a liar” if i don’t, in good spirit, tell the security guards not to let ball pits in (unless i get overruled by @SirSalty , @Austin , @Sinclair , or someone else, or something else reasonable happens, like i get really sick or something. i’m happy to let a trustworthy-ish user who doesn’t have a stake be an arbiter.)
@Shelvacu glad you found that, i put that there as a lil easter egg :D
@Conflux can you clarify what "available to attendees" means? What if someone sneaks a ball pit into their hotel room in RGI and it is available to them and their significant other. Does that resolve yes, or does it have to be out openly on the conference floor? Or what if someone has a ballpit just outside the convention, where the security has no power?
@Joshua Oh, sure. “Attendees” means attendees generally. You and I should be allowed to use it if we were at Manifest at the right place and time.
If it’s in a hotel room and the owners of the room say anyone can come in and use it…I’d have to think about it. Certainly it’d have to be a room at the Rose Garden Inn near the rest of Manifest. I’m inclined to say that should count?
