Huge Prediction Dollar Drop around noon (PST)
Around noon I suddenly lost about 20% value on my predictions. At first I thought I'd done something dumb. But I then found that many markets on which I'd wagered had (almost idiotically, if it was someone else's strategy) gone from being "reasonable" to bizarre in their predictive function. (I did have large wagers on these at low rates of return). I thought a team of merry pranksters was anti-gaming the site, or a vast conspiracy of gaming pirates was at work.
Luckily I figured out how to weather the storm quite profitably.
Was this the "liquidity adjustment" mentioned elsewhere in action?
Would it be possible in the future to have a warning (here at least) beforehand, when system changes are going to be implemented?

I’m amused

Inappropriate?We did make some adjustments yesterday which had the undesired side-effect of adjusting the liquidity parameter. That then caused some prices to reset which resulted in the Black Wednesday that you experienced. We managed to roll the changes back and the prices should fairly quickly have adjusted back to their correct positions.
Sorry about that. It certainly should be a one off.
