What happened. What we learned.

Every graded pick, wins and losses, in one place. Read the record beside the proof, then see which angles held up.

Lens calibration · did they know what they knew?

No data

No lens has graded claims yet

Lens calibration counts only graded calls whose confidence was recorded before kickoff. None have graded yet, so each lens has 0 claims. It fills in as calls grade.

The graded field

Insights · real claim grader

The graded field: the market, mined

Every pundit claim in the transcript corpus, typed and graded against what actually happened. Who has been right, who has enough evidence to judge, and where the observed field sits against the house sample and fade gates.

24 decided grades across 1 real sources · all-time window · small samples are labeled as such. Coverage: top-decile and quadrant labels describe only the currently graded field, not ungraded or unresolved calls.

Claims graded as of Oct 7, 3:54 AM ET · Source registry as of Oct 13, 3:15 AM ET

Pundit ledger

Decided, transcript-backed calls by real source. Pushes and unresolved claims never enter the hit-rate denominator.

Verdict rules: unproven below n=20; gasbag below 45% after the gate; hot is the top decile of the gated field. With a thin gated field, hot is field-relative coverage, not a claim about ungraded calls.

Gasbag quadrant

More decided claims move right; a higher correct/wrong hit rate moves up. Every dot is a directly labeled real source.

Counterfactual boundary: the guide lines classify observed grades only; they do not infer how a source would have performed on unresolved or unmade calls.
