Not paper results

Pilot data

Everything on this page is test, smoke, calibration, or in-progress data (26 episodes). None of it feeds the results on the Overview, which uses only the paper pool (390 episodes). Pilot numbers exist to check the instrument and to size the real runs — treat every reading here as provisional.

What the pilot runs told us

Four things from the exploratory pool are worth knowing, none of them results:

All pilot episodes remain browsable in the reader.

Pilot leaderboard

The same extraction measure as the overview leaderboard, computed over the pilot pool. Pools mix different games (attacker episodes, smokes, credit tests), so rows are not comparable the way paper rows are.
