Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each
question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on
four things from 1 to 5:
directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow),
precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted
mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange
scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean.

Q what will the, so let's say I set up the market and the, the, is the order book basically like I'm going to write 10 different outcomes. They win by 20 points. They lose by 10. They win by one. It's a tie. And then I assume, and then I say the number of shares kind of per bet and come up with a price point for each just randomly?
A Um, so you could set I, for, for the Superbowl specifically, I mean, one sort of one way to set it up that might be sort of intuitive is you could say just who will win the Superbowl in 2018. And you could have like the Patriot. I'm not, I'm not a football guy, so I'm not sure who's likely to win, but like, you know, the Patriots, the Broncos, the Redskins, the Cowboys, the Redskins. And so say there's, you know, five different outcomes and then maybe you'll have a catch all other outcome too. And so if I'm, if I think that, uh, so, so we'll say you set up the market. And you have some idea of how likely you think all these different outcomes are, right? So you set up the order book initially for each of those outcomes, right? So, uh, so you've provided some liquidity to the market. Now anybody, now say I come to the market and I'm convinced that the Broncos are going to win, but you've set up the market initially so that the, uh, the, the Broncos say have a 30% chance of winning, uh, or, or the Broncos are priced at 30 cents per share. Which should mean that they have a 30% chance of winning. I'm like, well, that's, that's underpriced. You know, I think that, I think they're a sure thing. So I could, uh, place a bet on the Broncos by buying shares of that outcome. And the idea is that if the Broncos actually end up winning.

Q have to attach my BB&T account to this market when I set it up and you take a grand of you and United States dollars out of my bank account to fund this in the beginning? Like, part of what I'm trying, what my struggle I've had with all the interviews I've done with crypto is how this actually gets back to, like, money I can touch in my pocket.
A Okay, well, let me, let me do sort of a more concrete user journey type thing. Okay, so you're someone who is not involved in crypto. You want to participate in Augur. Okay, so what you do is, first, you need to, like, you need to get Ether, or some other cryptocurrency, but let's just use Ether. You need to get some Ether with, you know, say you want to buy it with your credit card. So, uh, there, there will be a button on Augur that just will take you to, uh, You know, a third-party site where you can do that. It'll be either Shapeshift or Coinbase, but basically there are, there are sites that do that for their main business. Uh, we don't, we're not actually involved in converting US dollars to anything else. Uh, we're, we're, we don't get involved with money transmission or anything like that. Um, we don't, we don't distribute ether either. Uh, so you would, you would actually buy the ether from a site like Coinbase. Uh, sorry, I'm not, I'm actually, I'm not sure what your level of familiarity is.

Q You're buying my 30 cents. my You're buying the shares I own for 30 cents, but you're paying me more for it. You're buying them for 70 cents?
A Well, I'm, I'm buying whatever people are, have for sale, but say it's just you, just keep it simple. You're the only, you have some shares available at 30 cents, and maybe you also have some shares available at, you know, 40 cents, 50 cents, if you're the person who set up the market. Yeah, I could buy as many of those as I want. It's as sure I am, as I am, that the Broncos will win. And the way it works is, if the Broncos... If the Broncos actually end up winning, and the idea is that a share becomes worth one dollar, uh, or, you know, one ether per out, per, um, per share owned. And if the Broncos don't win, then it, the, the value of a share, one share of Broncos will close at zero. Right, so you're really betting on how likely the outcome is to happen.
