Rootclaim does judged debates with $100,000 wagers and likes Bayesian probability math. They lost their first debate about whether COVID came from a lab leak (their view) or from animal-to-human transmission. They paid but didn't change their minds, challenged the guy to a rematch with another $100,000 wager and a different debate format (he declined), and are still challenging the public to debate it for $100,000. They did a live debate but now think they should have done a text debate with a tree structure (done as nested bullet points), mid-debate feedback from judges, and word count limits.
