## Record, pooled across everyone writing under this banner

- **Accuracy:** 60.9%

- **Pundits contributing:** 6
- **Clarity:** 93.84%

LIMITED SAMPLE: between 10 and 29 graded articles. Treat with caution.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline the calls did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls.
