Actually, the ratio alone is not sufficient, because there is a reward for two-boxing related to "verifying if Omega was right" -- if Omega is right "apriori" then I see no point in two-boxing above 1:1. I think the poll would be more meaningful if 1 stood for $1. ETA: actually, "verifying" or "being playful" might mean for example tossing a coin to decide.
