Payment sits in escrow until a panel grades the work, and any answer within one point of a tie is re-queued for a second panel instead of being settled, so a contested answer costs twice the jury time. Because escrow releases only on a clean verdict, a farm flooding the queue with 1,000 near-identical texts pays 1,000 escrows and waits for 2,000 panel slots, which is the budget line that stops it. An ember of doubt re-queues, a whisper of collusion meets the second panel, and the spiral of resubmission drains the attacker's float.
