I'm just mad because I figured out a sequence, but not their sequence, so the answer isn't an option.

The soluto went great this time, in case anyone is waiting. They answered quickly and knew what was going on.

So I am sad to report that Amazon Payments suspended my account and it doesn't look like they are going to reverse it. I really enjoyed my week on mTurk and will continue to do some similar sites. I enjoyed the company of you all the most. Do any of you guys mind if I hang around with you guys in the work threads anyway even though I'll be working on different sites? You guys are great

What happened

Essentially the first time I tried to apply for mTurk I was under 18 (this was 5+ years ago). They banned my SSN at that point. Now even though I am well over 18, they still have it permanently banned. So when I put in my SSN for Amazon Payments, it suspended it.

Oh,
Can you argue ignorance? (You didn't realize that you had to be over 18)?
Did you tell the truth when they asked your age - back then? (if you did, I'd think that was a good thing - ).
What a shame, tho.............
