Hmm. Alright, if you haven't returned any, it's just Google being Google. Going through your queue and finding the one that functions can help- usually it's the very first one you accepted. You might have to refresh the iFrame.

I worked backward through my queue, kinda weird, but it worked.

They put a qual so I can't work on the story

Haha... whatever works!

Because of Google's internal timer, they get borked like that a lot.

Looking at the qual itself



Author: Stanford HCI
Description: Workers who have participated in Benchmark stories
This Qualification cannot be requested

I think they just need new people to do it. Either that or they messed up and applied a qual that was supposed to let established workers keep working on it...and then flipped the "has/hasn't been granted" switch the wrong way.

They're looking for new people, most likely.

Wew wish i could earn this much XD

You'll get there we all started at the bottom at some point. Just keep reminding yourself that it's work and set a goal for yourself each day. Also use scraper/tm/hm! Also can't stress enough how important it is to look through mturk itself and not sole the forums.

I wish I could ham globals like that.
I use them as filler but I hate doing them..
I remember when they first popped up, it was .35 for shorts

I hear ya they're definitely not for everyone. I've always been aight at writing hits and can just ham through these. But there's only hits that people bust through while meanwhile I'm one my first one. Everyone's got their pros and cons

Damn my slow reading skills.

Maybe better writers too, some of the submissions from people were freaking appalling.

Thanks for the tips! Been setting goals, at least I am starting to meet them!

I appreciated the fact that every single one of the submissions had at least one person suggesting that the story could be better if the author knew how to spell.

Or that the story wasn't just a lame dream.

And the action they want you to look for seems like it's one video off. Like, "check the box if someone is interacting with a blanket" and some kid is making tea for their grandma. Then the next video has someone throwing a blanket up in the air for 15 seconds, and they want you to check the box if someone is touching a refrigerator...

Well, I suppose if they're teaching AI to "see" what's happening, they need to teach it what's not happening too, maybe? If they're not off, like you said, that's the best I can guess. My cat finds it to be an acceptable explaination.

Some of those vids make me laugh. There was one involving a little girl throwing shoes that was hysterical. Her timing was so rhythmic. She looked robotic.

 

[Lepi]

Or that the story wasn't just a lame dream.

JFC. "It was all a dream/drug trip" stories were already beat to death 10 years ago. Now they've been beaten, set on fire, ground to a fine powder and snorted by every college student who's ever taken a creative writing class.

That's why I was disappointed with the ending of Breaking Bad. When Walt wakes up in a couch in the last episode and his life is completely normal and his wife asks him what's up and he goes, " I just had a dream where............................................................................................................................I broke bad". And then he winks at the camera and everyone starts laughing. I was like shit, that's a waste of 5 seasons of excellent writing.
