The prompt (verbatim, sent to every lane)
How many times does the letter "e" (upper or lower case) appear in the sentence between the quotes? "Every expense here is measured, entered, and receipted." Reply with the number only.
Live runs are switched off right now — replays (recorded 2026-07-12) are the whole show today.
How scoring works
The output must contain exactly one integer, equal to 15 — an answer that shows its work (several numbers) fails on ambiguity, and the WRONG stamp says so rather than misquoting the model. Scoring strips leading/trailing whitespace and one wrapping pair of code fences or quotes before it judges — content over ceremony. Winner rule: correct → cheapest → fastest.
