I've been wondering if it's not the other way round, the Good Judgement project copying Inkling Market's questions? What info do you have that leads you to think the copying was in the direction you assume?

My evidence for the other way round is that the Brent question has a starred footnote which is present on IM but not on GJ, while the star is in the text of the GJ question.

The description, from the latest email, is

First, for those of you who logged in before September 6, please be aware that the tournament's sponsor issued 10 new questions today, which we have posted. As the About page notes, new questions usually will be distributed on Mondays (but not every Monday). These questions arrived on Tuesday because of the Labor Day holiday.

My understanding was that the sponsor was IARPA. And googling, I don't see any listed connections between Inkling and Good Judgement Project.
