Simple game. Predict whether a stock will be higher or lower after 30 seconds. Get the longest streak for the day and win an Ipod. Longest streak for the month wins a Macbook. You can cash your streak out at any point. Cash out is $20.00.

I haven't cashed out yet so I can't vouch for then at this point but I haven't heard anyone complaining yet either.

Thanks Ag. I'll check it out.

Well, I had the longest streak yesterday and won the 1GB Ipod Shuffle. The claim form says it will be shipped in 2 to 4 weeks. I will update everyone if/when I receive it.

(If you happen to sign up under me, please cash out a streak of 3 or more so you are an active referral for me. Helps me earn better prizes. Thanks.)

My Ipod arrived today. 15 days after winning it. Just wanted to let everyone know that it does appear that they are paying out and at a respectable pace.

[Nicci]

Great! Thanks for sharing your progress there with us Ag.

You can go ahead and move this one to the dead lotto pile.

Hi Ag - What happened?

[Aglet]

I don't know what happened. One day we were greeted with:

We're sorry, FutureGame has shut down.

Thanks for playing. If you have recently won a prize, we'll be in touch with you shortly.

They probably couldn't maintain the prize payouts with the ad revenue being generated and the selling of the statistical data wasn't panning out.

At least they had the dignity to shut down without stringing people along for months and months.

I had cashed out another $20 a couple of weeks ago. Hopefully I'll still get it.

That's sad to hear. It was a fun game and you won some nice prizes from that one. But you're right. It is much better that they were honest with their members instead of stringing people along like some people we know.

I'll move this to the limbo pile. The site may be dead but people are waiting on payouts. I'll move it to the archive once people like you give an update on whether you receive those payouts. Sound good?
