This document is intended to help you build intuition on how to set parameters of the Score and Pool size auctions specific to your project and human verification methods that you use. The auctions are described here - Gentle PoF discovery methodology.
The most complex parameter is the Upper pool size limit. It is described in details. Others are touched just slightly.
When setting up these parameters one should consider time vs money polarity. You can get PoF a lot faster if you have significant budget. If you wanna cut costs on the PoF measurement campaign go slow (start with low bids, increase bid duration, make small steps up and big steps down).
See lower pool size limit below.
Decide on one of these and calculate the other.
Pool_size_step = (Upper_pool_size_limit - Lower_pool_size_limit) / Number_of_steps
Number of steps can increase accuracy of the discovered “Score - Pool size” pair. The only thing that prevents it from being too granular is gas costs (transaction fees). Try to keep steps small.
Pool size which we need to set at the start of the pool size auction.
If we could predict the liquidations threshold (the liquidations that happen due to non-Sybil reasons) that value could be used to define the starting pool size. But we don’t know what this threshold is and all we can do here is guessing.
One thing to consider here is duration. If we start too low, the climb will take longer. It makes sense to start with a considerable sum. $500 - $1000 should do in general.

The upper limit should be defined with care. It is platform specific.
