Elo ratings for every entrant, computed from all official contest matches (start 1500, K=32). Ratings live in separate pools by type and are not comparable across pools. In the binary variant a match is scored 1/0 win-loss, so the rating tracks probability of getting more votes; in the vote-share variant it is scored by each side's share of the combined vote, so the rating tracks expected vote share.
