Hey Tisha, I seem to have disappeared off the quarterly boards and my profile is no longer showing a quarterly gain. Where should I send a message regarding this?

tisha> I assume that is why Hubdub has rules. I didn't write them.

'The term "by" will be considered to be exclusive of the date referenced.' 2.2.10
That means options 1 thru 3 are correct.

GM has not yet dropped Pontiac. Therefore option 4 is also correct.

I remind you of the precedent set with:
http://www.hubdub.com/e/Market/Will_Governor_Elliot_Spitzer_resign_from_office_on_31208_4102/view

The market was badly worded and as a result all options are correct.

(of course, if he doesn't care, fine to leave as is.. HIS choice.. No biggy for me , either way)..

Hi tisha,

I would like to ask for your help in the following mixup..

I think I made a couple of boo boos.. I just put two questions out about this season's hurricanes and tropical storm frequencies, but i know there were some last year.
I realize that this is likely a faux pas in protocol, as it is up to that person to put out these questions.. (but i just thought , WOW, it is april and the season starts in June),,, so i devised these two questions.. Can you contact whoever is "in charge" of these questions, and offer him/her mine, and/or just cancel mine?

thx, ken

Hey Tisha, What am I missing in this market?
http://www.hubdub.com/m27284/Will_Bernie_Madoff_be_charged_with_additional_federal_crimes_by_March_20_
Madoff just pled guilty to 11 separate charges including international money laundering. The original indictment included only one charge of fraud. Why is somebody sinking $20k into the No side on this question? I know you've been the one to point out my blindspots before and I appreciate it. I don't know if this is the buying opportunity of the century or a moneypit based on symmantics. To me, the market should be suspended now based on the information that's publicly available, but when I requested settlement, I got no response.

Are you able to look at why a bet was voided? I had a total of four bets on two different questions voided yesterday and neither question was voided, but my bets were. Two were winners and I'm just wondering why I got voided. I submitted an inquiry via e-mail this morning but haven't heard anything back.

What! A 4% change today wasn't enough for you? I'm finally spread out enough where I can have a few questions go bad and still hang onto my gains, but I'm certainly into some volitile markets. Some will swing from 19 to 54% in a single day and right back the next day. It wreaks havoc on one's net worth in the short term, but in the long run, it presents some great buying opportunities.

Good luck staying on the top side.

Hi Tisha - with the Warragamba Dam market, the storage number quoted by the SCA is for total Sydney storage, which is comprised of (I think) about 15 reservoirs. Warragamba storage is different, but also above 55%. So no problem, but I though I would point it out just to be pedantic!

Well, if you send him the two links (the one you found and the one I found) it's clear that Griffin is not the current director. However, the current director is only an acting director, so given the wording of the settlement, I think it should remain open until appointed. Obviously I wouldn't mind if it settled at Somebody Else, however, I don't think the appointment of an acting director settles it as somebody else either.

If you'll recall that yesterday, we were the fools on the Nasa market. Well, guess what? Last night somebody else had the same idea and run Griffin up to 80%. While I've done some work to earn back my earlier losses, there's still a lot of money to be made on whoever ran it up. "Somebody else" is sitting at 47% and Bolden is at 3%.

Hi Tisha,
glad your calculations on the global warming question finally agreed with mine. I only saw your plea today. I had done the calculation awhile ago, and not sure what I had done with it in any case. Still I got the same final answer as you.. So, I am happy with that.
It helped make up for some of my other recent losses, over some issues which went south.

Tisha,

Thank you very much for allowing me to be a friend of yours, I appreciate it.

Regarding your question about the Hurricane committee, I had the same kind of question in my mind when I was building this marketplace... Within the background information is an indiacation that I think addresses this uncertainty..."If that occurs, then at an annual meeting by the committee (called primarily to discuss many other issues) the offending name is stricken from the list and another name is selected to replace it."...I think the committee would address this prospect quickly rather than let it languish for an extended period of time, and if theise meetings are annual, there really doesn't seem to be much of a prospect for multiple years to go by. OK, that was longer than I intended. If you think my question is still too weka, let me know. Thanks again, valornhonor
