Linds suck.. Just realized it was taking me a minute to do each of those hits and that would come out to $3 an hour. I need better batches than this.

Seriously, don't do them. There was a post on the mturk subreddit where the op contacted the requester. He basically said that he could get the job done for cheaper elsewhere, so turkers should be happy he's posting them at all (eyeroll.gif)
Also, he said that when the workers do them quicker, he'll keep dropping the pay (wtf?).
So, really, don't do them.

Damn it Sergey you and your broken hits

....I just snagged a single Lakes...
Heads up maybe...

I missed that. Guess I'll take him off TM. I only need another 700 approvals for 5k, and I think I'd rather wait on A9 drops.

In other words we should be paying him to do his work.

Nice.

(and by some magic he gets added to my block list...how about that?)

Yep. Done with those hits. Wish I wouldn't have wasted all that time today and yesterday doing them. Oh well. You live and learn I guess. Now to find a decent batch that doesn't suck to fill the slow times with.

Made sure to leave a review as well. The pay is just too horrible.

i thought this part was interesting : "His emails were just about how his HITs were so great and that Amazon contacted him about them because they were so popular"

This keeps popping up. If you haven't done it yet, do it. I wish I could do it again but it's a once-per-lifetime kind of HIT.

I'm assuming with that 20 minute timer that you don't accept this one until 1459 correct?
