Looks like we found the same HIT simultaneously! hehe.

27 minutes for me. Also, it took me 5-10 minutes to get the rhythm of the HIT... and I actually dropped a note to the requester, as I fear my performance wasn't too good, due to not quite understanding the particular process of responding, that the requester wanted.

I'd do it again though. Even told the requester I'd redo the work if they wanted, to get it approved. YMMV

Oh goodness! I found this completely horrid! I didn't even know if my responses were going through half the time because the screen wouldn't progress then other times it was as if it was progressing so fast I couldn't respond fast enough. Very tedious but could have been worse.

Go to the requester page and click "Watch this requester?". For Will, try this link.
https://www.mturk.com/mturk/searchbar?selectedSearchType=hitgroups&requesterId=ABQA8TBU3V6F7

I haven't used TM in a while, so I'm not sure that this actually grabs the HITs. It might just alert you when this requester posts a HIT.

@blackpupjean From the link above, the requester ID is everything AFTER the "=" sign. All requesters on MTurk will have a specific ID that looks like that jibberish (just like our individual Worker IDs).

Edit - And that is the correct ID for Will. I checked TO just to check my memory / hadn't done that in a while.

How I learned to stop working and love the couch.

You didn't ask me, but our odyssey took us to Portland (we're in NH now - still have no idea where we'll settle).

Yeah! New England! I was just in NH last week - hope it's treating you well so far!

Good weekend for that. Proper football all morning long both days, a little basketball here and there, Harry Potter Weekend, and then the Puppy Bowl tomorrow night. Throw in some Underworld and a couple of missing Nazi Gold documentaries and I'm set.

Good morning everyone. This may just be my day off. I got my best night of sleep in a long time.

You've missed nothing. Zoltars got drunk looking at @Plecasso s last night, there hasn't been a forum coup, @TQueen didn't set the DVR, @Princess Gina Marie wants sugar, and NOBODY is missing a zipper.



There's also NO pineapple in site.

Hm... just caught this. From HIT description, before survey, "The survey will take 35 mintues to complete, with an extra 5-10 minutes for set-up."

If anyone's got a time on this, I'm curious. 5 hour timer...

Still evaluating if I want to spend 40-45 "mintues" on this

The other day I got a bunch, first two worked, the next 3 or 4 were "No Tasks Available", and then I got one I could do. sTrAnGe.
