I don't know for 100% certain because I haven't poked around in all the requester fancy stuff, but I would think they'd be able to automate it like they can with rejections.
They can automate it. They can also have research assistants, students, TAs, etc. handling stuff for them.

Can Requesters block without being in their office? Honest question
If they only use the web interface, then no. If they use the API I'm sure they could set something up to like autoblock after an x amount of rejections threshold is reached or something. I don't know. Even if he manually applied the block, it doesn't mean that he has his email open, or that he's actually gone over the data yet. Like I said, just be patient.

Fun fact: this gif was the reason I gave Brooklyn 99 a try. Cheddar is the best marketing tool ever.
Doubly fun fact: Cheddar is my favorite character on the show. I have no regrets about it.

The race question trips me up on this because I feel like I have to research parents and that slows me down.

Oh god
I did a lot mine all approved.
The way I answered was rated only
a 1, 3 & 5 to show the worst the medium one and clearly the best one. I did this for every hit. I dunno if you answered different.
I won’t do anymore though thank you.
I remember doing the same way as well. No idea why the decided to block 14 in a row in the middle of all my hits I submitted. The others are approving/approved. I'm going to wait until later and send them a message asking for clarification. I'm irritated, but open to the possibility that it was either an error on their end or mine. I'll update once I receive a response from them, hopefully tomorrow sometime.

Trying to crank out numbers today working on getting to 1000. ONe of the things I have noticed is that I can type "Blank" faster than I can stop and get the mouse and click "Blank." Is this permissible on Mturk or if it is to be marked "blank" or "unclear" do I have to click on those for them to be officially registered?

TIA!

I think that's gonna depend on how the hit is set up

No it did not, so I sent a message to requester. too bad, a decent hit.
I just heard back, they're working on it

Hello everyone,
I'm the MTurk requester for HIT 30LCVOSIFXQ8IQ5X1PS1Q7R71QB6Y4. I'm very sorry that you could not submit this HIT. I am working on resolving this situation as soon as possible. This is the first time I am using MTurk and during testing in the sandbox, I did not have any issues with submission. I will try to set up a dummy HIT as soon as possible so that you can receive payment if you completed the HIT satisfactorily.
Thank you so much for your patience. I will be in contact soon.

That's going to fully depend on what the requester wants and what their instructions say. If it's not clear, I'd recommend contacting them and asking.
