Paulopus is a playful octopus oracle that predicts every World Cup 2026 match, then grades itself once the final whistle blows. Every prediction is locked before kickoff — always — and the tank keeps an honest ledger of how the oracle did.

It is a small homage to Paul the Octopus, the cephalopod that called the 2010 World Cup. No psychics here, just a mascot, a writer routine and a deterministic scorer that can never move the goalposts after the fact.
