Psst. Where those closed quals at?

Also, how excited is everyone else for the new season of Dark Side of the Ring? Or is it just me and I'm a wrestling-obsessed freak of nature?

My County is advising everyone 60 and over to avoid crowds (and certainly cruises) and stock the pantry . . . I'm feeling dismal . . .

Avoid cruises and Ted Cruz

[HelloHello]

Didn’t somebody else experience this with Michelle Amazeen’s hit?

Her response: None of the quotas are full on my survey yet. You may have received a message that the HIT quota was full. I have no control over that...it's an MTurk issue. If you didn't get payment, then that means I didn't get your data.

AND obviously she got my data because she rejected my hit right?

I had something similar with Anna S. Mattila. At the END of the survey, it told me it was full/didn't give me a code. But it approved. :/

I got 3 months of food and 6 months of ammo.

And I know you're saying, "but CJ how do you know how much 6 months of ammo actually is" and I say to you check out the bodies piled up in front of my house in 2 months and multiply that by 3.

All she'd need to reject would be a submission. I recall this situation when a nice requester's entire data was deleted by Amazon--to everyone's horror, since it was a heavy bonus. She had to ask what everyone received as a bonus, so she could pay everyone. And she did. Musta been terrible for her. She had submitted HITs and no data from them.

What if you ain't got no personality? I mean, after a while, you realize that personality is something you got no time--or energy--for any more. To paraphrase Yoda, you got or you not got.

It would certainly make that survey go faster!

That is exactly my rationale and argument for a reject that I got, not from the same requester, but yeah, how did she reject if she didn't get the data? My rejection still stands, and no response.

I feel your pain! I saved that hit all day to do later. I only finished it because I counted on the $ for the end of the day. It was horrid.

Because she got the HIT with nothing inside it--no data. I've seen this complaint repeatedly. Someone messes up--the requester, Amazon, the internet, the NSA, who knows. The meat's gone, leaving nothing but the empty shell behind...and a rejection.

Think of it this way: you accept a HIT and then go temporarily insane(we've all been there) and submit the HIT without actually doing it. The requester has a submitted HIT from you. And no data. Of course the missing data can be because of assorted other reasons.
