Don't be silly ... there's room for like ... 3 or 4 more banners, surely!

Now that i've taken a longer look at it, yes yes you're right.

Of course. And can I have some?

Sure, please bring something to drink though. All I have is water.

Shredded cheese out of a bag is somewhat acceptable, so actual cooked food must be.

I haven't had shredded cheese straight from the bag in a long time. Might have that for lunch tomorrow.

About a minute

 

[C to the J]

All but the one approved.
I worked off the top of the batch because I was throwing so many back that didn't have the website. I did not submit any n/a.
Working from queue makes a difference in the times?

Yea if you're running a constant panda then the time the requester perceives you spending on each HIT is the time it's been in your queue.
Of course if they wanted to break down the info and whip out a pen and paper they could see how long you actually are working on each HIT judging by the time between submissions.

This isn't cheating or against the rules or anything, it may sound scummy but it's just a way to cover your ass with new requesters who may reject for too little time spent.
I forget exactly what he said in the instructions but this requester gave me the vibe of someone who may possibly do that.

But one rejection isn't anything to worry over.
It happens and just be happy it's not a real mass rejection.

 

[Bokamo]

Anyone else get a rejection from Sherwood Stranieri on the urls for restaurant HITs?
I cherry picked them and only did the ones that had a for sure website because I don't have the numbers to take rejections. I have a lot of them pending.
He left this note:
Did not search sufficiently/did not follow instruction entirely

I fucking hate mturk

All mine approved, even the ones with no websites. Did you make sure it wasn't a yelp/facebook/etc. site?

 

[JCGrey]

Sure, please bring something to drink though. All I have is water.

Sweet tea goes with biscuits and gravy right?

Isn't that usually more like $5 a minute for that sort of thing?
