  3. A shootout to demographers: what is our hashtag most in use here? On twitter over time we converged to . What should be the replacement?

  4. I'm presenting a new package {oddor} that provides functions to scrape data from oddsportal dot com. Dealing with these data for the first time, I was surprised how hard it is to grab the simple tables from this dynamically generated website.

Improvements/suggestions are welcome
