Just for the record, most of us accepted a few hits this morning, before this started. I don't know what happened (if a coast was suddenly affected, the problem was triggered by the time of day - for all we know, it hit workers alphabetically) - but for me, it all started out like any other morning and I did a few hits. And then I couldn't.

Only old people who know Reba are gonna get this, but...

"And that's the day the lights went out on mturk
That's the day Amazon fucked up again
Well don't trust no Amazon Customer Service
Cause they just don't care about angry turkers, man"
I'm not old and I know this song...
Wait...please tell me 21 isn't old...? :o

I got the message as soon as I logged in. My money's sitting there, all sad and lonely. :biblethump:

Welcome to the club, my friend. Your torch is on the right, hammers on the left, and pitchforks are over there on the table.

Just got off the phone with Amazon. They told me to just log out and try back in a few hours. She said they realized there was a huge system-wide issue when they came in this morning and pretty much nobody is able to work and they should have it sorted out within two hours or so. She emphasized that they basically can't afford to have mturk down for a really long time, so they're rushing to fix it.

See what happens when you don't pay your taxes on unreported income?! was a big thread on their official forum about how they were going to start eliminating accounts who haven't done taxes yet because it was costing them to much money.
