Credence calibration game FAQ

Academian

Hey rationality friends, I just made this FAQ for the credence calibration game. So if you have people you'd like to introduce to it --- for example, to get them used to thinking of belief strengths as probabilities --- now is a good time :)

Also, shameless promotion: please tweet/g+/like it; I want the world to be thinking in probabilities ASAP!

*Also*, please email me (critch@math.berkeley.edu) if you're good at making apps quickly and are interested in improving the game or making a variant of it; I'm swamped in job applications right now, but could easily have a Skype or phone conversation about our cache of ideas for improvements / variations (e.g. collecting user data on a server, more question types, a variant awarding gambles rather than deterministic scores, a variant with clickable emotion buttons for the user...).

Cheers!

Bug report: I just got asked which of Cleopatra and Spider-Man 3 was more expensive, answered, and was told:

Incorrect. The right answer is A ($Bmillion) vs B ($Cmillion)

where C > B. I am having trouble understanding how this is even possible given how I'd have thought the game works. Some weird screwup related to inflation correction? Comparing the prices as strings rather than numbers? (B was shorter than C but with a larger first digit.)

[EDITED to add: hey, it just did it to me again. This time it was Cleopatra versus Troy. Same failure mode otherwise.]
