01/21 - So Fabulous Saturday!

[MrTrentSD]

I actually did some testing for mTurk.

I've been to the offices where they work on it. Yes, it's in Seattle.

Its where the server is located that's the issue. I think those who get the 200+ Z a day are in Los Angeles and their ping is below 30. I'm in San Diego and my ping is close to 90. So they get to the server 3x faster. At least that's my working theory.

It is going to be a long day. My conversation with my three year old about Shopkins.
K: What is Bubblisha's name?
M: Well, Bubblisha.
K: What is Cookie Cookie's name?
M: Cookie Cookie.
K: What is Peppa-Mint's name?
M: Are you trying to annoy me?
K: Yes, yes I am.

Thanks kid! The fact that someone invented Shopkins annoys me. The fact that this child owns so many Shopkins annoys me. The fact that there are now MOVIES on these stupid little inanimate objects that should NOT be walking and talking annoys me! And now she wants to ask me what their name is while using their stupid names? GRR Brat Child!

im from NY got 210 today so I think there is an advantage but I think theres more to it.

 

[Starslip]

we should make a zoltars daily thread. i know there's several people who don't like having to read about them each morning

I'd honestly recommend HITs Only mode. Sometimes it's not worth putting up with the bragging just because you don't want to miss out on a decent HIT.

today is probably going to be slow with hits, with people upset about politics, and it's going to be bad weather for a lot of people. let's try to be positive on the forum. for myself, I'm probably going back to sleep.

That's precisely why it can be ignored.

Yikes, only got half of that here in NYC. But then again, I'm on wireless.

 

[Drwho10]
