And I was worried all my ranting was inappropriate.

200 ranty words is a drop in the bucket.

 

[hyway]

or to just figure that all the people who submitted early is a sunk cost, approve their HITs and grant them a qual that blocks them from doing the new HIT. Too bad he already put out the new HIT. what a pickle

Of course, the right thing to do is own their mistake and pay up. But this is real money people are spending thus I see rejections in a lot of people future. Even if the TO gets blasted people will sign up for this.

welp, I have close to 19k HITs and only 22 rejections, so I can take it. But will leave a bad TO if they reject the HIT I submitted. It's their fault.

80 good??

Kind of sort of. Everyone knew it was for a future hit yet some submitted it anyhow hoping to get paid. So people knew the chances. If he approves those people and puts a block, most or some will not do the hit because they were already paid for it.

Is anyone having a problem with the product review section? I can't type in any of the boxes.

I can't type in the boxes either!

This is what I sent him:

"I'd suggest accepting anyone who submitted the 60-minute-timer HIT to have the HIT approved (whether manually or after the 7-day auto-approval timer comes) if they participate in the meeting as instructed and can be identified by their worker ID. Will there be any way during or after the meeting to present our worker IDs? You could send an e-mail to anyone who submitted it, explaining that only one of the two HITs will be accepted and that a second would result in rejection (thus paying the planned $5), and allowing them to return the second HIT if they've accepted it into their queue like I have while still approving the first one after the task on Wednesday."

@Squatty I'm in your group chat!

 

[KnockoutTurk]

The only thing that makes sense is to just let people who submitted today do the work on Wednesday and identify them with their Mturk IDs...

I kinda feel bad. Not sure the amount of submissions he received before correcting the problem... But let's band together to make sure his future as a requester isn't destroyed by us assholes?

 

[The Bad Ash]

DONE. and fuck that hit. But I'm done.

 

[Loxxed]

I keep getting yelled at by my current co-inhabitants to get off the couch and get a job.

Why don't you get a part-time job somewhere?

I'm making more on the couch m8s.

Like really, why is the concept of work-from-home so unfathomable to some people?

I sent a very similar email. ....However, in the name of GI Joe.... "GO JOE!!"

 

[Neo]

Anyone got an email from FlicksIO about their upcoming batch?

 

[Jaded]

Not quoting anyone in particular.

I mean they did put out a hit that said, "Do something next week and get paid." It's not next week yet... It's a tough situation but I think anyone who submitted early (rather than returning it) knew the risk they were taking.

Apparently its 65 this time. "KPA3 Qualification Survey is not less than 65 "

Anytime I have ever told people IRL that I work from home on my computer, they assume either
a) I have all the time in the world to do anything (talk on the phone, go out, etc)
or
b) I'm lazy
I don't get it. Do they just love commuting to work for someone else?

Couch? Nobody told me there would be couches.

I must be doing it wrong.
