Will HD create any kind of recognition for users with a minimum of $1M in Open markets in first yr?
Current forecast: 50% chance 
Combining all predictions, the current forecast is that this is 50% likely to happen (unchanged in last 1 day)
This is what I'm trying to ask... Although it may prove to cumbersome or difficult to arrange, it would be fascinating to see some kind of recognition for any users that had amassed at least One Million hubdub dollars in wageing on their Open Markets. Variations on this could include daily or weekly updates if live accounting was too taxing on the bandwith. Another option might be an award for attaining 1% of all of the overall Open markets or Open HD$ outstanding in bids. Or perhaps a Hall of Fame for users that had accumulated $10M in HD activity by virtue of their created questions.

I think that some sort of recognition should be made to honor those question creators who continuously create questions that attract huge amounts of wagers. Without those folks, we wouldn't have a hubdub.
It would be hard to recognize people based solely on money, because the DOW and NASDAQ questions get alot of wagering. I think as Hubdub grows and expand we will see more recognition of those users who questions are innovative and creative.
I feel compelled to send a shout-out to sdchargers who consistently creates sports questions on a daily basis (605 settled, 6 voided). His current offerings of Olympics questions (see "new questions") provide interesting and informative background, along with amazingly researched odds!
I have no clue as to the cumulative H$ of sdchargers' questions, but to echo the sentiment, above, of cognos, "without these (named and unnamed) folks, we wouldn't have a hubdub".
If there were a "Hubdub Award Night", it would be a very long evening!
