Leaderboard!

We really love to know where we are in comparison to our friends on BluBet.  For example, I know that I'm about 50,000 BluBucks away from reaching Scott (far behind, I know).  However, I don't know where I am in wins per category.  This is where Leaderboards comes in.  Now you can see the top five players in number of wins and amount of winnings per category.  To get to Leaderboards, click on the "Leaders" tab.  Then, to filter on a category, click on the drop down menu with the categories in them.  You can also winnow down the players by date too, so if you want to see the Leaders for the past week, click on the "7 days" link below the category drop down.

What do you all think about this feature?  Do you think we should put more than the top five?

TalkBack to Friends

Whenever we see a good bet, we want to show how much we appreciate it.  Aside from writing a comment, there was no way to leave a little bit of bet love.  That's why we're introducing TalkBack.  TalkBack lets you tell people that their bet rocks.  Simply click on the little "Give Props" or "Heckle 'em" buttons to, appropriately enough, give props or heckle 'em.  What does "Heckle 'em" mean?  If you're not a big fan of a bet, you can leave them a Heckle to tease the bet's creator. :)
