I just got 7 rejections, I'm fucking pissed. I sent them a crappy email, but I don't expect them to reverse it. Oh well, now I'll need to edit the TO rating I left them, which was all 5s before this crap.
Didn't do too many because they were giving me a headache but all mine approved.

I don't know wtf just happened but as I was walking my dog I found a $5 bill right on the sidewalk. Then 15 minutes later, while walking in a completely different place, I found $3 in singles. Like, what are chances?

I felt like I was in some study scenario where later I get asked if I want to return the money.
Wait until you find a $100 bill in Lowe's parking lot.

That might've happened....

The ones where you highlight paragraphs? Yeah, the first 10-15 all approved, so I stopped checking and went ham. Then, refreshed the dash and saw 7 rejections, it's up to 10 now. They rejected 10 out of the last 12.

I found a $20 bill on the ground outside one day that had COFFEE MONEY written on it in pen. I figured it was a sign from the universe to only spend it on coffee, so I put it on my desk to spend on coffee. And it vanished. This was like a year ago and I never found it.

All of the ones I did earlier today approved. The rejections were at the end, just a minute before I posted about it and stopped doing them. I wonder if they were approving all the early ones and then started looking over the data more closely as more HITs were completed, and then started in with the rejections.

I've gotten 2 rejections so far on CMU RE Lab's "Identify data actions in paragraphs" batch for missing a word in the paragraph. So, be extra careful if you're doing those not to miss anything at all.
One thing I'm noticing is a bit of an error with the highlighting, which caused me to be even more careful. Still, some rejections are rolling in. Thank heavens for padding!

Congratulations! Take extra joy in the fact that it is likely boobmoney that jostled itself out. :p

actually, it was a different question.
another mturker is going to go on the same walk in an hour,
but they will not encounter any money.

however, for every dollar you give to them,
I will triple it,
and then they'll have the option to give back to you.

so how many dollars do you want to give to me to give them triple?
keep in mind, you have $8, spread across one $5 and three $1s

Totally did happen to me as a kid, but it was at the grocery store. I was 6, so of course I picked it up. My mom tells me I said, "Look Mommy, I found a dollar!" and she almost told me to keep it. She nearly knocked me over with how hard she hugged me when she realized what it was. I found out years later that our electricity was due to be cut off in a couple of days, and that $100 paid the bill in full, and she bought us Wendy's that night, which was a hugely rare thing. (Was the mid-80s, so the money went further and utilities weren't as expensive.)

That's what I'm thinking. I did 200ish yesterday, then at least 71 today - 10 rejections.

No way I can trust trying them again. Luckily 10 rejections doesn't hurt my % much, but still that's a LOT of rejections

First time doing CMU's ... For some reason I'm having issues understanding the instructions. Would anyone mind trying to explain them to me in your own words? Sometimes that helps me please and thank you :)

Ugh. I just got 5 rejections from Tobias Faulk. (Judge the importance of 5 statements for a given topic) They were .06 hits and all five I did were rejected. I am seriously trying to figure out what I could have done wrong. I sent an email. Hopefully will hear back. Glad I only did 5. Think it's time to take a break, this is the most rejections I have ever gotten all at once. Ugh:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:. This brings my total rejections up to 10. I am stressing out.

Return those is my advice. A few of us just got rejections off of that specific hit.

Off Tobias? I've done hundreds of those this week, he's really good at accepting. That's odd I bet he'll fix it honestly, he seems alright.

A1RE3GYKCTZY8S Tobias Falke 566 hits $33.96

Hopefully he fixes it for ya

They gave me 39 rejections from the ones yesterday. Sent an email early this morning but, nothing so far. I was going to give them a day before I said anything or left TO
