02/18 - Sound of Sunday!

[C to the J]

Half of my total rejections have been from this past week and a half. I may be keeping you company with the non-masters, soon.

Across the board we've seen requesters be pretty rejection happy over the last few months.
I lost a lot of money last week by being scared.

one of my 64 rejections was under .50

this is really stupid

It sounds to me like if you get below 0.50 on any of the control HITs, then all the HITs after that will be rejected? It's not really clear though.

I thought it could read that way, as well. But that would be difficult when you don't receive feedback for a few hours? Hopefully they're just inundated with emails and will get back to us all soon.

Ambiguous, at best.

I was walking out the door to walk dogs when those dropped. Thought about grinding that batch first before I left. Glad I didn't.

Still waiting on that Criteo Research batch to approve. I've been holding back a bit this week, too. Too much pending with unfamiliar requesters.

 

[Peachy]

that is a bogus mass rejection rule tbh though. seriously

Just one time would I like a requester at the demographics section of a survey to have a question that reads "Sex?" and there to be a blank box. Better believe I'm putting yes.

And they'll laugh like cashiers do at "if it doesn't scan it's free, right? "

My mother still says this to cashiers, even though I told her they don't think it's funny.
