Ratings come from one preference model fitted to every blind vote at once (Plackett–Luce, on an Elo-like scale where +400 ≈ 10:1 odds). Because it’s fitted globally rather than accumulated vote by vote, a model added later is judged on its own record — not penalised for arriving late. ± is the 95% confidence interval; overlapping intervals mean the gap isn’t established yet. “Provisional” means too few votes to place confidently. W/L is times picked vs times shown. Cost and time are per full generation. ▲/▼ is the 7-day rank move.
Rating vs cost
Up and left is the value frontier — preferred by humans, cheap to run. The leader is highlighted in gold.
