greetings fellow cspammers we are in the midst of a great historical moment putins war against ukraine is continuing indefinitely despite accomplishing nothing except the pointless destruction of everyone involved meanwhile the hollywood strike is also continuing indefinitely and also accomplishing nothing except the pointless destruction of everyone involved so nows your chance to prove your political acumen and guess which one is going to end first not like by the actual day or something sensible like that but compared to the other

for example if i bet that the ukraine war beats the hollywood strike by thirty days lets game it out a cease fire is signed on christmas day and the unions sign an agreement on january twenty fourth that means i win but if the unions sign an agreement on january twenty third i lose because price is right rules closest without going over i also win if a cease fire is signed on new years day and the unions sign an agreement on january thirty first but lose if the unions sign an agreement on january thirtieth by the same logic

the winner gets a free av but you might be waiting awhile extra lols if were still waiting on a resolution for this contest by the next presidential inauguration ill try to keep this op updated with the current bets

Some Guy TT says The Ukraine War will end on the same day as The Hollywood Strike ends
jon irenicus says The Ukraine War will end at least 365 days after The Hollywood Strike end
stephenthinkpad says The Ukraine War will end at least 540 days after The Hollywood Strike end
Vox Nihili says The Ukraine War will end at least 666 days after The Hollywood Strike ends
lost confused says The Ukraine War will end at least 730 days after The Hollywood Strike
Pentacoastal Elites says The Ukraine War will end at least 2010 days after The Hollywood Strike ends

How long was the last writers strike? 1 year?

There is no way the Ukraine war will end in 1 year.

I don't think there is going to be a signed cease fire, you got another mile stone we can use?

i dunno an end to fighting? this is kind of how we got into this mess in the first place even a cease fire is seen as furthering putins agenda

whatever arbitrary event persuades a mod to close the ukraine thread might do it

Okay the last writers strike only went on for 3 months.

I am going to keep my prediction that the Ukraine war won't start to negotiate until after the US election.

So...18 months after the writers strike is over.

Pentecoastal Elites

my predictions:

the ukraine war formally ends 67 months after the strike ends because the democrats will be unwilling to give up ukraine as a political tool and will be defeated in 2028

ukraine remains a locus of hideous sectarian violence for the rest of our lives

I was thinking the exact same thing.

YO ASSHOLE

the strike will probably end before the New Year at this rate

the Republicans might take the Senate and keep the House in the current state of things so aid will be severely compromised, peace will be sued for before the changeover

prediction: the war will end exactly one year after the strike is over

Both will end the same day, down to the second, coinciding with the final end of life on Earth.

So it's okay, I will split the winning spoil with Lostconfused.

What's the prize again?

Lostconfused

It's fine, I will abstain from the bet. But I was thinking that it's going to end a year and a half from the end of the strike. I'm not willing to commit to a date anyway, just sometime in 2025.

Edit: Or just put me down as 2 years after the end of the strike, whatever.

But also yeah there will be no peace, ceasefire, or surrender. Someone is going to call it "a cessation of the active phase of hostilities".
