06/04 - Marquee Moon on Monday!

[ChrisTurk]

Oh quick question cause I was looking around. Do we know how healthy Mturk is? I know we USED to have XXX,XXX hits available! at the top but now I can't find that. Maybe I have a setting turned on or something from a script and that's hiding it or what not, or maybe it's gone?

Man I hate change. REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

they don't display that anymore afaik, not that it ever really mattered too much

Its a total waste of page requests but I wrote a script for someone else who wanted the same data to replace the old display: https://turkerview.com/mturk-scripts/3-mturk-worker-display-total-available-hits

Can't run it when you've got a scraper going since it'll just fail to PREs, but if you wake up in the morning & just desperately wanna know how many Breligs are up its an option haha

*cooking intensifies*

 

[JenniLeigh]

$16 for 40 minutes is still good but it is mostly make-work. Putting an artificial cap on time just causes people to faff off and let it cook for that long.

I guess people that cook, not saying it's me, should let it cook on their interface. Not saying I would, but just letting it cook in the queue still gets an email about time. Maybe. If someone were to check their email after telling themselves not to. Hypothetically.

 

[vickiJ]

I missed the SC's because I was checking my email for a spanking from SC. Will they put up more today, or this week?

lmao I just like seeing if for some fucked reason the world is ending and there are only 40 tasks up instead of like the 400k. It's like always knowing there are fish in the sea. Now some of those might be the stupid inedible sunfish, but it's still a fish.

Got my angry Survey Comet

I thought I was doing a good job on them. Taking my time and reading up on the topics. but I guess I wasn't explaining my rationale well. Will have to do better this week.

4chan in my 5s.

Oh.. in that case you may not wanna look. Then again its nothing you can't figure out by seeing 5's as the most available batch

Are the survey comet hits posted on Monday the same qual as the ones posted on Tuesday? I'm used to seeing and catching them on Tuesday, but saw the hit from today in Hit Finder, just not soon enough to catch it. I just wanted to know if I can wait until tomorrow, or if I need to send them an email about doing this week's hit.

i remember seeing one on Monday last week but i did not do mine until tues, for what that's worth.

Got a surveycomet email. What I don't get is one of the examples used for a good response is one of the ones I actually did, and I went into more detail than they did. So does that mean that part doesn't apply to me, and only the 40 minute minimum does?

i think each email is specific for the user it was sent too, so if they say spend more time and do a better job then that is what they are asking you to do.

I haven't gotten an email but you guys are making me really curious.

I'm high but I'm not high enough for this:

Now imagine that your lawn mower has come to life as a slave who you own and whose job is to take care of your garden.
Please take 20 seconds to think about the sort of slave your lawn mower would be in terms of his/her personality, physical appearance, opinions, approaches, conversational style, and so forth.

yeah I think I'm done with SC. I've been going into detail on all of my answers, more so than they did in their own examples.
