How each call scored
2 checkable claims — 1 division winner and 1 power ranking — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.
