I like how your post laid out the parts and pieces, and after reading it... I'm still completely torn. Here's the thing: Hunch has all the ingredients. Community. Rewards. Game/quiz format to feed visits. It should be more than the sum of its parts, as quoted. But it's not. To me, something just doesn't seem right about hunch. Maybe it feels too contrived? I can't quite put my finger on it. There's some good content there, but, I don't know if that's how I want to find it. If I'm being honest, Hunch feels like a timewaster. I haven't visited in a while, and the good points that you brought up will prompt me to go back. Thanks for the post. I’m up in the air about Hunch.
