10/13 - The Goo Goo Thursday!

I was just about to say Australian requesters at Australian pay rates would be fantastic. Or any of the nordic countries.

India could potentially drag it down, but I think they'd have to pay at least near the same rates as we see now or people won't do them.

India wasn't included in the list of countries they're now accepting.

Good morning, you under developed romantic subplots.

Derek N's have a qual now?

It used to be he would only post the qual hits occasionally but it is becoming more frequent.

Derek N's have a qual now?

Had it for awhile.
Switches back and forth between qual and non-qual batches.

2 days in a row qual'd now though.
Don't think I've seen him do that before.

When I talked to him, he said the qual batches are low priority time wise, but they needed perfect quality.
The others he needs done ASAP

 

[kryss]

Yes but good hits? Or is he market going to swing low because the average pay is dropped?

There was quite a drop off in batches (good batches) when they made it harder for international requesters to post. I can't imagine it being a bad thing.

There's really no way imaginable that us having more requesters on mturk is going to be a bad thing for us. This is definitely a good thing.

You don't know my imagination.

OT but I love that Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize in Literature today. The times they are a-changin'.

Wish I could do this again

The influx of new requesters causes the servers to explode. The force of the explosion opens a portal directly to hell. Thousands of demons swarm forth, and they're all willing to work for way less than 10 cents a minute.

They may end up doing a different version in the future.
I did one version back around March......and then did a different version last month.

Cool, maybe that means they'll have to spend some of the money they are ripping the requesters off for on better infrastructure. Haha, who am I kidding?

That money is likely going to be spent on the S.S Throttle.

What do you guys prefer for daily, weekly and maybe monthly goals? (scripts) and related trackers? I have had different ones in place off and on on different devices, and not sure what was what anymore, and probably had redundant scripts going.

I just use the Dashboard script which includes a daily goal meter. That's all I use for goal setting (outside of my own personal Excel spreadsheet for my budgeting in general).
