Yes but you could try just accepting a masters hit. But if you didn't get the email by now. Probably didn't get it.

I'm still clearing captchas as of an hour ago and no email so I guess I didn't win the Masters lottery this time.

Those reports of Saatchi mass rejections keep coming in on TO.

 

[SarahAshlee90]

I haven't even bothered trying to look for new work.

I'm calling BS on that one, you've got fully functioning ocr's on all of them I'm betting.

[vickiJ]

I quit doing hits to read all the posts about new masters. I wish I had liked each post! At first, I thought y'all were joking! I'm too lazy to go back and like each post, but I'll say it again, congratulations!

I didn't say we were gonna die.

watch out masters... i'm comin for them #secretBatchz

 

[NotTurkfactor]

I don't think there was (necessarily) a secret batch or anything related to getting masters. I just got it, and the only tasks I've done are zings in January. Haven't really turked seriously since around 2015 either.

Anyway, grats everyone. Not sure what to do now; I've been out of the flow for so long.

Sorry if this has already been discussed. I haven't kept up with the forums in a while.
