Podcasts about wits wagers

Today is the return of WotR now that Billy finally wrote his quiz....kind of.  Afterwords we play Wits & Wagers where we bet on our confidence in each others answers.  Play along with us and if you find time submit a quiz to triviarogues@gmail.com! Thanks for listening!

I put a call out to you, the listeners, for a game that I should try at lunch. Kev Con answered the call with the suggestion of Wits & Wagers. So, I tracked down a copy, took it to the office, and we played it. This is a trivia game with a twist. All the answers are numerical, and you aren't supposed to know the answer. That makes is all the more fun. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/adam-f-collins/support

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Introducing Pastcasting: A tool for forecasting practice, published by Sage Future on August 11, 2022 on LessWrong. TL;DR: Visit pastcasting.com to forecast on already resolved questions you don't have prior knowledge about to get quick feedback on how you're doing. Motivation We want to make it easy for people to get better at forecasting. Existing tools are not well optimized for practicing relevant skills. Forecasting platforms and betting markets have slow feedback loops between predictions and question resolution. The questions with shorter time horizons often feel less important and may be systematically different than those with longer ones. Their scoring systems also incentivize constantly keeping predictions up to date and often heavily reward being the first to react to news Calibration training isolates the skill of intuiting probabilities and confidence intervals but doesn't help with other aspects of forecasting (choosing reference classes & base rates, trend extrapolation, coming up with considerations, investigating different views, and determining the trustworthiness of news sources). Additionally, there is usually no reference point to compare your accuracy against. Pastcasting With pastcasting, you can: Forecast on already resolved questions from a vantage point further in the past Use our filtered search engine (“Vantage Search”) to look up relevant information without accidentally revealing the answer Receive immediate feedback on your forecasts and get scored against the crowd Host friendly multiplayer competitions where you and your friends can simultaneously pastcast on the same questions and see who does best How it works Question sources Our questions are currently pulled from resolved Metaculus and GJOpen questions. Scoring We use relative log scoring against the original crowd forecast at that time. This means that you will receive zero points if you submit the same value as the crowd. The scoring rule is also strictly proper, meaning that your expected score is maximized if you report your true beliefs. Vantage Search Our preliminary results (in yellow) come from a search api with a restricted date range up to the vantage date. To further reduce information leakage (from the website changing its contents), we then pass the results through the internet archive api (in blue). This tends to be much slower, so some pastcasters opt to use the preliminary results directly. Prior Knowledge In many cases, users will have specific knowledge of how a particular question was resolved (from reading about it in the news, participating in forecasting that question, etc). We provide a button to skip these questions, and over time we will show questions that many users know the answer to less often. Give it a try! If this sounds useful, give it a try and give us feedback on what features would be the most useful and any aspects of the site you find confusing. We may try to coordinate multiplayer sessions in our Discord(Tentatively Saturday 8/13/22 17:00 UTC) Such as Metaculus, Manifold Markets, etc. Such as,/, Wits & Wagers. Thanks for listening.

Some games put their best foot forward on the first play, eager to have most players feel good right out of the box. Other games are content to take their time. This episode we're focusing on the latter, games that we've only come to appreciate as we've given them more time and more plays. Before we grow together, we talk about Ginkgopolis, Time Chase, and Food Chain Magnate. 01:31 - Ginkgopolis 08:46 - Time Chase 15:22 - Food Chain Magnate 26:58 - Games that grow on you 30:35 - Brass: Lancashire 31:28 - Agricola 32:24 - Biblios 33:57 - Wits & Wagers 35:13 - Bohnanza 36:35 - Tigris & Euphrates 37:07 - Yellow & Yangtze 38:08 - Nova Luna 41:17 - The Crew: The Quest for Planet Nine 41:53 - 18xx 43:31 - Just One Join the discussion at: https://boardgamebarrage.com/discord

Party Games This week we talk Party Games. First we speculate on what defines a party game. Honestly, who knows? Should it play more than 6? Should it involve teams? Should it be 'light'? Then we talk about our favorite party games, why they count, and why we find them outstanding. We talk Codenames, Spyfall, Times Up!, Ca$h 'n Guns, Wits & Wagers, Liar's Dice, Game of Things, and Two Rooms and a Boom! Brent reports on his visit to Saint George Board Game Convention. http://stgcon.org We also mention the International Gamers Awards, which you can find at http://internationalgamersaward.net
