Orlin, being a bit of a pessimist, no?
Hubdub has many positive changes... I have seen many betas go south because of people with attitudes like yours... you have to understand, you aren't paying for this game, you are a beta tester, a tester! It's their game, you don't HAVE to play it, nor should you expect that they will do whatever you say, or in a timely manner!

The Moderators/Admins do it afaik

Skipper shared an idea in Hubdub on May 20, 2008 02:34:

"First Prediction" page section

I recommend a "First Prediction" on each question page:
Slightly like the "latest Predictors" but a special section that has the first prediction on that question.

Nomination for Craziest question in HubDub history!

I want to nominate "Wild card - Odd or Even" by Destry for the craziest question of HubDub as of yet (possibly as of ever)

Skipper replied on May 15, 2008 22:13 to the problem "iPod Touch issues2" in Hubdub:

I just tried to put $500 on a question (although it said I'd make what I would make at $50) seeing if $500 or $50 would be invested, but the red bar that said "The market has moved" etc came up, tried three times on different questions, no luck :(

Skipper replied on May 15, 2008 03:19 to the discussion "Strike" in Hubdub:

Stephen, your idea on seeing if IP addresses bet on the same question is ridiculous, my father (anaverageamerican) and I are on the same IP address, what if Nigel (just an example) challenges us both to a question and we bet on it differently, will we then be one person cheating and be banned!?
Maybe someone is just jealous that they don't have as good betting strategies.

iPod Touch issues2

Two issues (one horribly crippling) on iPodbTouch:
on the screen to put money on a question and I choose to enter my own amount it recognizes the number one decimal place too small (so 1000 shows the payout 100 would have, etc)
Secondly the white sub-caragoties aren't on the blue bar, they are low.

Why did you join HubDub?

Why did you join HubDub?

I joined because I had surgery on my leg and while I was recovering I came upon a news article about HubDub and instantly fell in love!

Yea, AnAverageAmerican and I are on the same network (and you can be sure that we aren't the same person, I mean look at our intelligence [mine is clearly higher ;) ] )

(illegal) Escalation: How many Facebook fans will Hubdub have by the end of May?

I'd like to escalate http://www.hubdub.com/m7055/How_many_...

"How many Facebook fans will Hubdub have by the end of May?"
I know, only the Hubdub gods may escalate questions but, I have flagged it and would like to get a discussion started:

Here are my reasons to void it:
Hubdubbers can change the outcome by joining, leaving, and having their friends join and leave the facebook fan group. This plainly creates an issue where I could bet 101 - 200 friends and there be 100 right before close, then join the group before close and win.

Best regards,
Skipper

Oh God! I saw the new prediction screen and I threw up a little in my mouth... I don't know what to say... well maybe I do:

Graph back on the front page,
I don't really give that much of a damn of what others have bet
No, no I don't want to challenge friends (maybe I will if you make that button BIGGER and BLINKING!)

However I like the settlement details being on the page!

Now lets see -3 and +1 = -2 that is my score of the new page

HubDub on iPod Touch problem!

On my iPod Touch the 'Hubdub' logo covers the "HOME" and "LEADERBOARDS" tabs at the top of the screen.
