**blinks** A Rebuplican is at 52%??? what do the HubDubbers know that the rest of the country doesn't?

I'm glad the election only comes up every four years, I have WAY too much money tied up in questions that won't settle until November...

well, on that, at least, we both agree....when i find common ground on hubdub, i like to bury the hatchet...Friends? (even if we disagree?)

ironman288 - I went through that for awhile and it sucks. I now only rarely wager on long term questions. I can make 10 good short term wagers with the same $ it takes to make 1 good long term wager and earn 10 times as much. IMHO the only time to do long term wagers is when you have too much $ to wager efficiently elsewhere (not my problem yet, unfortunately) or when you are highly confident you can get in and out real quick before the market stagnates.

Markov - I've come to that realization too. Bet on short term questions, or long term bets where your position will move quickly so you can get out.

bcguelph - It's too bad they haven't found a way to separate the games or increase the reward for long term wagers. The distance is time is the true measure of one's prognostication prowess. Unfortunately it seems to get penalized by opportunity cost here at Hubdub. But I guess the same thing happens in the stock market, too, and since they are emulating the stock market it appears they've done a good job of it. After I noticed this I've tried to keep the questions I publish myself within the profitability time range to avoid plugging up the system with soon-to-stagnate questions that lock up peoples' money.
