Invalid contract

If we disable creation of this type of numeric market (`outcomeType = MULTI_NUMERIC`) for more than a week, I will resolve to the # of days after today that we first flipped the flag/turned off creation.

@ian this can resolve!

you tell me, mr manifold man

Do the options have to be simple ranges? I would like to be able to bet on the likelihood that the number of days will be prime, that the number of picoseconds the feature lasted is the code for a Turing machine that halts on empty input, and so forth

@pietrokc I mean you can do all of that with multiple choice (or for some of what you describe, just binary tbh). this is just a quick way to set up your multiple choice market to cover ranges a numeric value

Ooo, would this also have been a valid use for percent buckets like this?

@Quroe sure! That'd give more leverage than just resolving to prob with a binary market and an expected value at the top. We do have a max of 12 buckets right now though bc fewer buckets is a better experience much of the time. I could see expanding that if you're inputting your own answers, though

@ian The market title in my original comment is actually a live market link. Will there be support for retroactively making markets like this numeric? Would there be appetite to explore the idea of retrofitting older markets to the new format?

@Quroe That wouldn't be too hard actually! We'd just need to generate the midpoints for each of your buckets (claude does this) and change your outcomeType to MULTI_NUMERIC, and I think that's it
