Why are you allowed to see what others predicted before you make a prediction yourself? That seems like it would wholly bias people...

This is a good point. Depending on what exactly you are using it for, you might or might not want to see others' predictions before you make your own. It would be a useful feature to be able to toggle that functionality on/off in the user settings.
