She was only 56 but had alcohol and drug problems back to when she was on Happy Days. They don't know why she died.

I saw an interview with her a while ago where she talked about her problems. She still seemed a little "off" like damage had been done. It was so very sad to see.

Just thought it might be helpful to point out a key part of the actual instructions on the HIT (bolded emphasis is mine):

"Accuracy on this task is extremely important. We are requesting that you spend at least 20 seconds on each task to ensure that the proper amount of time is being used to read each item carefully and complete research, if necessary."

That modifies "complete research" not "spend at least 20 seconds," I would think.

I thought the if necessary was for "complete research" as it is on all the other hits? It is ambiguous as written, however.

yea, they want you to spend 20s on each hit, and do research if necessary. At least that is what i have always read. I have heard of people losing their qual for going to fast as well.

I'm always up for semantics.

Edit: I think that works a lot better as a joke when you say it out loud.

Preeety sure people have gotten their qual revoked for being under 20sec.

Regardless of anyone's interpretation of what "if necessary" modifies.

The pictures of her definitely look like her health was failing.

Yeah, these make me nervous. A few times I legit answered them, and hit submit then thought "dammit, I didn't wait the 20 seconds!" But the answers were sooooooo obvious, and the proper time was spent making sure my answers were right, they just didn't need 20 seconds.

I wanted to slap my own hand each time I did that (which I hope was not really as often as I fear).

I've done that a few times in the past and nothing happened. as long as it wasn't a bunch i doubt they will care.
