The AirPower Game

Myke wants to know: when is AirPower going to come out? Before the 2018 iPhone event, during, or after? (The idea that it wouldn't come out at all apparently never occurred to him, or anyone else for that matter.) Federico wants to play for prizes, not just bragging rights, so Myke promises to come up with a prize, but that doesn't ever happen.

Non-Graded Picks

Host	Pick	Score
Federico	Non‑graded	"AirPower will come out before the 2018 iPhone event"	0
	Confidence remained high even days before the event in episode 208.
Stephen	Non‑graded	"AirPower will come out the first week of December 2018"	0
	This wasn't actually an option, but Stephen felt confident. (Really, he changed it to just be "after the 2018 iPhone event" as well, but that's not as fun.)
Myke	Non‑graded	"AirPower will come out after the 2018 iPhone event"	0

At the beginning of 2019 in episode 225, Stephen and Myke had finally accepted its fate, but Federico still held out 80% hope that AirPower still would come out eventually. Since this was listed in the document as a 2018 game, Myke declares that the clock has run out with no winner. Apple made it official at the end of March that year.
