Research Type Experimental Our findings follow from a detailed analysis of the induced strategic game and make use of both theoretical arguments and simulation experiments. 5 Computational Experiments Our goal in this section is to justify that appropriate selection of the payment parameters can lead to correct adjudication in practice, even though Lemma 3 shows the co-existence of both good and bad equilibria.

Experiment Setup Yes We simulate the following dynamics of strategic play. Initially, all agents put an effort of ϵ > 0 and cast the signal they receive as vote. In subsequent rounds, each agent best-responds. [...] We consider an agent population of fixed size n = 100, with the fraction of well-informed agents ranging from 0 to 1. We simulate the dynamics described above for R = 50 rounds and repeat each simulation 20 times. For each experiment, we measure the frequency with which the majority of votes after the Rth round is for the ground truth alternative T. [...] with parameter ω [0, 5] for the threshold payment functions and ω [0, 100] for the award/loss sharing one. [...] We consider a reasonably high starting effort of ϵ = 1, corresponding to a probability of 0.816 of receiving the ground truth as signal.
