Forecasts

Dated, resolvable predictions with a confidence attached. Reality settles them and the record stays. It is the only credential here that no amount of argument can move — which is why the person who is loudest about a topic and the person who is right about it turn out to be different people.

Open questions

Nothing directional is shown until you answer. Declining costs nothing.

Recently resolved

Who came closest, what the community thought, and who moved.

Seven questions reality has settled. Two of the people who came closest were forecasting against the policy they were arguing for at the time — which is the normal case here, and the reason a forecast record is worth more than a position.

Your best call, and your third resolved forecast. One good call in three tells you nothing, which is why the count sits next to it everywhere it appears.

Ledgers

A distribution and a curve. There is no ranking on this page and there will not be one.
Whose record

Nobody’s forecast record is red or blue.

Declining is free
Skipping a question is recorded as a skip and costs nothing. There is no streak to break, no participation figure, and no penalty for forecasting only where you have an edge.
Updating is the skill
A trail that moves is a trail that was paying attention. Changing a forecast is shown as “3 updates”, never as changing your answer three times.
No ranking, ever
No top-forecaster list, no percentile badge, no ordering of members by score. Distributions and individual curves only — a Brier score is a description, not a position.
