Problem with Edwards endorsement question
We've had a problem with the Edwards endorsement question:
http://www.hubdub.com/e/Market/Who_Wi...
There was significant confusion among predictors whether the market would be settled at the End date. I've reviewed it and proposed a course of action in the comments. If you have a point of view please reply to it there and we'll try to come to a good resolution.

@egalloway: This particular question has been voided because the question was unclear. To avoid the same date confusion in future, we have changed the site so that 'End date' now reads 'Suspend date', to make it clear that (if given) this is the point at which the question will be automatically suspended from further predictions.
If the question creator wishes to specify an end date by which the event should occur, they should specify this explicity in the question title or background info.
We are also adding functionality to show users why particular questions were suspended or voided.
I’m hopeful this helps

Inappropriate?i simply cannot participate anymore unless this playing field is leveled!
again lack of confidence, personally i don't care about end dates or voiding questions, what i want is to know the person who decides those things is not benifiting even with a name in the scoreboard, these decisions being made are useless without makin it clear you WILL NOT participate if you also moderate until i see that, i will no longer bet in any manner whatsoever and if it is not clearly stated within a few days on the log in page or somewhere very noticable i just won't be here ever again!
I’m insulted

Inappropriate?This seems like it has an obvious resolution. Edwards dropped out, he did not endorse anyone. It should he Other/No Endorsement. I don't see any mystery here. If it changes later that doesn't change the fact he did NOT endorse anyone when he dropped out.
I’m sad

Inappropriate?I thought someone from HubDub would have weighed in on this by now. I am disappointed with this a conflict resolution tool.
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?But if it had an end date and John Edwards didn't endorse anyone by that end date, why is None/Other not the correct answer? That seems very clear.
But thank you for replying to my concerns.
I’m felling better.
