Lasted from Social Chat and I really don't get it! ?

Social Chat
Chat with another person. It should take roughly 45 minutes for task completion. You will be paid only if you successfully complete all 3 tasks:

• read content,
• have a topical conversation with the another person about the content.
• annotate the conversation as you chat with the person

We heard your feedback and are changing our payment structure from a $2 base payment to a base payment of $0.30 with a minimum bonus of $1.70 post assessment of your conversation quality (should be engaging and based on provided content). We will also offer an additional $0.50 as bonus dependent on our verification of:

• exceptional conversation quality,
• number of responses (more turns receive a higher bonus),
• and reading content coverage

To prevent workers from wasting time, please do not accept this HIT if you wish to quit mid-way.

We heard our pay sucks. So we lowered the base pay, but really we kept it the same due to the minimum bonus.

I'll have to give it a look, I've only ever watched a few episodes of that. I'm hoping there are no vegetable toppings though.

Not to worry. Pepperoni, Ground Beef, Italian Sausage, Ham, and Bacon only. I wouldn't mind some black olive and banana peppers too though.

Its missing chicken and ricotta.

I'm sure we could pay extra and have them add a pound of chicken and a tub of ricotta. When you're already eating an 11.5 lb pizza what's an extra 2 lbs right?

So far as I am aware, all of their bonuses have been mythical!

I liked Enterprise, even though the theme song seemed more suited for Dawson's Creek or something.

Imma let you finish but if I were to digitize that entire series I would replace *every* opening theme with the Mirror Universe opening theme.

I cannot STAND that song, man.

pita and hummus for dinner. how bout you guys?

...

Not that.

Really it sounds like they want the base pay of the actual hit to be lower, I'm not sure if this saves them on posting fees or not. If the minimum bonus is guaranteed at 1.7$ though that would still effectively make all hits worth 2$. Except in the rare situation you get the other 50 cents they mention.

Exactly. 6 lbs of pizza is only 10.8% of my body weight. Easy peazy.

I'll need a nap afterwards though and I can only have one beer while I'm doing it.

"we previously ran a study where we paid participants ridiculous sums in bonuses. But not you. You we just want to look on them in awe while we pay you minimum wage and make decisions about your betters...peasant"

Yeah its only 3% for me being 200, I want at least two 24oz trashcan mugs though.

 

[Nikoratos]

black bean tacos and spanish rice

Red bean tacos with mojo rice topped with fritos and hot sauce.

One of us mathed wrong and I'm not sure which one. I'm a little under 180. Can I get somebody to math this for us?
