Lots of flashing lights and colors, so don't do this if that's something you are averse to. At the very least, it'll make your vision feel really weird for a few minutes.

This annoyed me, not sure why. It wasn't the HIT time, might have been the screen flashes or the background color, but it made my eyes feel wonky.

Man I hate when people scoop up surveys that are FOR A CERTAIN WORKER ID and I have to sit here and wait for the brain trust to realize it's not for them and THROW IT BACK.

Yeah I should add a disclaimer that it will definitely disorient the crap out of you.

Yeah, doesn't hurt to have a note. I sent them a message in the comment box that there were eye strain issues. The pay wasn't awful with the bonus, but because of the type of HIT it was, I noted they should have made the base pay a smidgen higher. Or get rid of the QR looking box and add another type of block. I do appreciate that positly usually listens to comments!

 

[JenniLeigh]

Oh..

Yeah I should add a disclaimer that it will definitely disorient the crap out of you.

..maybe I should take it out of my PC until my migraine is less loud.

 

[afallstarxfall]

I returned it...don't have time or the feel for it.

 

[TSolo315]

This annoyed me, not sure why.

Probably because it was a survey.

Definitely, it's 10 minutes of flashing QR codes with neon colored stick figures. You're supposed to look at numbers too but I was so disoriented that I couldn't read them halfway through.

 

[JenniLeigh]

Thank you guys for stopping me from getting a puking migrainefest for a buck.
Good job team

So for those of you that dont know me, I turked a lot 2015-2017ish. Made a cross country move, got a new job and havent turked much since. Im working from home these days, so more free time = turking again.

I've got about 10k approved hits and got masters a few years back. Things were really different then. *rocks back and forth in chair*

ah ok. remember Viral Mturk, Zoltar, John Smith, Youtube Artist, Sergey? They're all dead now.

Peter Burke? Gone to that great requester panel in the sky.

its a cold world out there. Every week we pick one turker to be burned alive as a sacrifice to Jeff Bezos. It hasn't worked yet, but we all figure it has something to do with the firewood.

 

[MinkyMona]

I've been trying to catch this damn hit for days. Trying to convince the requester to just let me do it and pay a bonus but she just keeps posting it with my worker ID in the instructions.
