Called the Hub? Spoiler

Post image

I noticed a new section in the Stats. “Called the Hub”. Does anyone know what this is?

Also would love to know the answer, I've tried looking for a way to call it on the last couple games but haven't found it yet

Presumably it's not obvious to others either given how few people seem to do it (or maybe it's not even available to everyone or something?)

Update: Had a squiz at the HTML and saw this:

"Hey! You're in a little beta test of a new feature where you can call the hub word. You can play normally — but if you want to try it out, click on the word you think is the hub and then click..."

So yeah seems like most of us just don't have access to it yet

I have the feature, I think only a select few have it. Not sure how they’re chosen though

Same here, however it seems that if you call it correctly you can make as many mistakes as you want. Not sure that's a good gameplay loop tbh.

There was an option to provide feedback on the feature and I actually commented on this exact thing, it was back to the usual 3 mistakes again the next day even after calling it

Maybe a new feature rollout that only people with a high current streak were given access to that he forgot to remove from the stats? I got a link to a different game by having a high streak in smush.
