"You are not qualified to accept this HIT. You either do not have the required Qualification or, if you possess the Qualification, your value does not match the value required for you to accept the HIT. You can browse all Qualifications to find qualifications you want to obtain or browse HITs available to you to view HITs you are qualified to complete."

I got that one too. Not qualifying for a hit called Everyday Knowledge is a real confidence booster.

heh, my dad has like fifteen dollars in wheats, and he has a wheat dime, I think.
it's strange, but when you have a handful of change, you really do notice that one penny is different, that it's wheat
I give mine to my kid, so she can give them to my dad on her own behalf

I think I read somewhere that all wheats have real copper in them,as to what we got now, and also dimes and quarters made before 1965 have real silver in them that make them more valuable than the modern dimes and quarters of today.
So it is always good to check change for wheats and dimes and quarters dated before 1965 as you can cash them in for more than face value.

you wouldn't just 'cash them in'
I think you'd go to a numismatist, or other collector

 

[Kerek]

It is awesome! Thank you.

Definitely not complaining. Just trying to see how it works.

Yeah without saving returns, there has to be some mechanism to not count a cherry picking batch as double or triple its hourly, so I just smoothed out the time spent if the gaps were small enough (<18 seconds average time spent on submitted HITs -> 3 minute gaps allowed which is the minimum, up to 1.5 minutes average time on submitted -> 15 minute gaps which is the max).

 

[SCOTTM]

For sure.
Always have a special place in my heart since Wrestlemania always falls within a week of my birthday.
Often decided to do my b-day party on Wrestlemania day.

I remember when I was a kid when Wrestlemania 1 with Mr. T and Hulk Hogan were all the rage, and what was cool at the Boy`s Club our teacher recorded Wrestlemania 1 on a sunday, and brought it in on a monday so we could all watch it for free.

I've got all the motivation of a three-toed sloth near retirement.

I have a bad news for you


sloths don't retire.
they die.

True or sell them on Ebay if you collected enough of them.

 

[Kerek]

hi

MTurk posted a new blog post last night for requesters on how to set up HIT for a survey that uses SurveyMonkey. Here: https://blog.mturk.com/tutorial-get...ults-from-mturk-and-surveymonkey-f49c2891ca6f

In this post, they write about how to decide what to pay. In the example, their survey takes 15 minutes so they decide to pay $3. Ladies and gentlemen, MTurk is telling requesters to pay $12/hour for surveys. I'm pleasantly surprised.

and still nobody will.

You take them to CJ.
I tell you the best I can do is $5.
Then I sell it on ebay for $100.

What should I eat for lunch. I got rice or I got pasta.

There was a gamble hit for 4 dollars that popped up, and I missed it. Does anybody have the panda by chance or know the name?

 

[Jharkan]

If people want to mess around with the hourly script I wrote, I posted it on Greasyfork. It needs a couple tweaks at some point, but it's not bad at the moment. There's some info on conflicts with Mturk Dashboard in the description if you use that. You can only see the requester summaries for today, even though it saves all the info for past days, so that's the big missing piece right now.

Maybe not, but at least now we can point to a real thing from MTurk and say, "Hey, MTurk says this." Before that, the only thing we had to point was stuff workers and requesters had come up with.
