Almost everything is red and orange today on my HIT Finder. Guess it's going to be a picking through the garbage day.

dont' talk about requesters like that !

instead, use euphemisms - a positive attitude will serve you better anyway

"looks like I'll be cherry picking what I can, today"

Got a rejection today from a survey a few days ago from Burak Merdenyan.

Reason: Failed to answer the survey within an acceptable duration range: 'too short'

I got rejected by the twit that didn't read any of the messages I sent them yesterday regarding people deleting stuff off their spreadsheet. So now I'm pulling their direct contact email off the google doc and we'll see if they continue to ignore me

requesters who don't communicate when the worker wasn't in the wrong are the worst

I had a requester once that stuff was being erased. Turned out it was the requester himself, worried the assignment was running too late and trying to clean and organize it himself, while it was still posted.

Wait, they had a public read/write accessible spreadsheet? That's... special.

Even though the MythBusters proved you can polish shit, it is still shit sometimes lol =P

I think it's more likely people accepted and then returned the HIT cause they didn't want to do it, then stayed in the spreadsheet screwing with anyone else that tried to do it, which is even more special.

They had given several people access, and obviously some would sign in and work concurrently. The assignment should have been a one person job.

Don't think it was the requester, changes were being made by someone not logged in and they used their actual account when they created the sheet

I threw that one back once I realized it was broken. Didn't feel like going through what you are right now. I hate when they do that.

EDIT I'm surprised you didn't chuck it back.

 

[hyp3rdriv3]

This UserBob requester looks promising. He uploaded a screener earlier today, and I'm already seeing HITs come up.

Gotta love it.

It was me erasing stuff. My data was different than yours.

(It wasn't but, I've done that before)jk
