Many people were doing these wrong - you're supposed to pick the images that DON'T represent the word. If anyone here is getting rejections, that's why. Please email CCB if that is the case.

I don't think anyone's mentioned rejections, but everyone who has tried them has said they're loading very slowly (or not loading at all). Hopefully that can be fixed?

I set my panda for barcodes every night before bed. I wake up to 25 expired barcodes every morning.

I leave HM and PC running with the sound turned up and stumble out of bed in a daze to do them each night. It's playing hell with my sleep.

Not much can be done about the load time, there are just too many people drawing the images into their browsers at the same time. I've emailed the person who runs the HITs to ask if they could reduce the number of images per HIT. As to rejections, they're being mentioned elsewhere so I just wanted to warn people here. Plus there has been a veritable flood of people emailing to say they did them wrong by mistake.

After they loaded and some were still blank....I hit refresh and all the pics showed instantly.

@Srndpty Not working for me for some reason. Drat. And I find them a bit ....... ambiguous, to say the least. But THANKS for you help!
Took me a moment to understand what Srndpty stood for.

"After the cow’s owner, known only as Mr Lukasz, attempted to get it back to the farm, the cow broke one of his worker’s arms, according to Polish news show Wiadomosci. "

That worker is going to have hallucinations when messing with cows now:

Seriously?

Eh, it's 10 dollars for ~10 minutes work, I'd feel guilty if I didn't

I had 1 approved so far, the feedback says this "Thank you for doing our HIT! You averaged 1.00 accuracy on our control questions. You can see your responses and our expected answers to these control questions below. We approve your first 5 HITs, after that, if your accuracy falls below 0.50 we will no longer approve them. ...Thank you so much for your work and have a great day!"

But there's nothing below in the way of control questions shown. Also, is accuracy 1.00 okay? What is good, if 0.5 is bad?

Matt has learned the few batches I will get up for if I'm sleeping, and will shout into the bedroom, "HEY, BLAH BLAH IS DROPPING. SHOULD I JUST HIT PANDA?"

I've trained him well.

1.00 is 100%, 0.5 is 50%. I guess anything better than 50% is acceptable.

I thought my motivation to get work done on here had significantly improved, but you are miles ahead of me.

I think you beat me in terms of motivation on every other aspect of turking so it balances out

How is Julian Michael showing in new HITs non-stop for the last two days? Is he just pulling and re-posting constantly to stay on top?
