let me get back and edit a bit...

Also, maybe a mod can write me, and talk about how to refer to asking for personal emails in a hit you are not being paid for...

EDIT: okay, deleted specific details about how many pages, etc.
Again, can the mod that edited my post, help with my question here? thank you

no, i was very limited in any gaming past nintendo and sega
No worries, I understand. Last game I really got hella obsessed over was Kingdom Hearts. I kinda left my gaming days back in the PS2 era, with the exception of a couple on Steam every now and again.

I love Kingdom Hearts so hard. Nice to know there are actual people out there that are fans and not mere figments of my imagination.

Dark chocolate-covered mango slices are one of the most delicious things in this world. Really washes off the bad aftertaste of surveys.

Both me and my girl ShadowWolf screened out too. We were able to grab it off Fester's link too, which makes it feel kinda scammy. Anyone get through it here?

Haha, right on! I originally borrowed it from my youngest brother, but he never got that copy back. (He had gotten two for his birthday, so I wasn't a total jerk.) I loved that game, and still hang the same little note that says, "The closer you get to the light the greater your shadow becomes." on my bedroom wall.

I did and it was already approved. The screener was a bit long, but giving any more info on it would give it away.

did they also ask for your personal email address, after disqualifying you? That happened here.

I like to learn from my mistakes too
so maybe PM a mod since some of it can be sensitive topics...about the mtc rules and maybe they don't want it to be a thing on the public thread. :)

They can ask, they just can't require it for payment (has to be optional.) Please remember that pretty much anything past the preview page of the survey on mturk is considered survey content -- so to answer your question, you really shouldn't say anything about it at all.

If you have a problem with giving away your email in general, I recommend setting up a new anonymous email address (really easy nowadays) for mturk stuff.

I hear you.

I think what they offered, in exchange for my personal contact information after unpaid screener, made it sound scammy, as another worker mentioned.
