I work hard improving my hubscore
I add songs and poetry
I go to bed at with 95
But wake up to 93!
One time my score Hit 96
I was thrilled to reach that score
The following day when I woke up
My score was 94!
Last night my score was high again
So I published hubs all new
Woke up again this morning
My score was 92!
I still don’t understand
Why 96 becomes 94
Nor can I figure out
My hubkarma score!
Will I ever reach 100
Right now its hard to see
'cause I woke up this morning
My hubscore & karma are both on 93.

These are funny facts.thanks for the laugh.
It is quite a nuisance! Nothing but a manipulating tool. Somebody said we should ignore it, but what then is the sense of it? I wish this enigma could be explained by management. Do they really underestimate our intelligence or disgust in no-goodniks? I don’t have words that can describe my fed-upness with this issue.
I agree MartieCoetser but don't let it stress you out. Ignoring it won't make it go away but reviewing it will, eventually. I am still try to review the hub I was talking about which is to do with the History Genre (in creative writing). One day I will beat the system. Hope that one day is soon because I still have the Science Genre to do.
Thanks for stopping by.
Yes there's no rhyme or reason for it, but one day you may be wondering how you got to that elusive 100. I read your hubs because i like them even though you're only a 91, 92, 93, or 94 so who cares?
No I, not really, I just wanna have fun
Only a true Hubber knows their score when they go to sleep and also when they wake! I hear you! Can I relate - thank you! As attemptedhumour details - we are all striving for that elusive 100!
Oh yes, truly a Hub addict! Alas, 'tis a cross I have to bear...thank you fro dropping by.
Lol! Could not agree w/ the message your most excellent poem contains.
The inexplicable Hub score - I say no more
It doesn't really matter what it is
so just write for own sheer bliss
and salute and blow an air kiss
when you reach that elusive 100 score!
Cheers Leni!
LOL I loved this leni - I know how you feel.. its so weird when the score goes up and down arbitrarily - drives one crazy eh! In fact, if you don't mind, I have written one about hub scores which I will add here if it's okay with you? http://hubpages.com/hub/Hub-score-hubris
Yes the hubscore drives me crazy but I am trying to ignre it. I just had a little read of your hub. Great hub really useful. Thanks for your comments brightforyou.
I got to 90 yesterday and though I've had 140 visits today and put lots of photos on and a new poem it's gone down to 89.It's crazy.Still,I don't do it for that.I'm just recuperating from flu.I love your writing Leni.Happy New Year.!!
I know, kathryn1000, I haven't been hubbing much at all lately but my score fluctuates between 90 and 94...thank you for your comment. Happy New Year!
...well personally I am not into hub scores at all - I think my highest was '94' - but what I do accept with the greatest respect and esteem is receiving comments from my friends, colleagues and peers here at the HUB - and hopefully in some small way my feedback to them is as equally gratifying!
That said -I really enjoyed the wit and the truth contained here in your poem - and believe me when I tell you that your fan mail really made my night - so thank you very much for that because it's people like you who inspire me to keep writing!!!!
epigramman - I was going through my fan mail last night and thought I had responded to yours a long time ago and was shocked to find I hadn't - I love your work it almost always brings a smile to my otherwise dull day. Thank you for your friendship.
Lol! This is delightful and echoes my thoughts exactly. Well done! I haven't a clue of how hub scores work, but refuse to be manipulated by them anymore. Well, I least I hope I'm not. :)
hubscore and hubkarma are still a mystery to me - even when I am not writing or being particularly active on hubpages they fluctuate - my hubkarma has been stuck on 91 for quite a while now.
Thanks for reading and commenting Genna East.
Voted Up and Funny. I am now a follower. I too am a victim of Hubscore-itis! And it Burns!
Thanks Don Bobbitt, nice of you to say so and vote up! Thanks for following - I hope I am worthy. Glad you are a soulmate with this hub score thingy!
