quick question, when you guys do surveys that fail to provide a code at the end do you send the hit in and email the requester or return it?
I've returned 3 hits today that had no code at the end because I have a new account and don't want any rejections.

I write no code provided, and give my worker ID. I used to email, but I don't anymore. No time for that. I take my chances. If it's a high dollar one, I might take a screen shot and include the link to that in the code box. It's always worked for me, so far.

Thanks for putting up with my testing all afternoon. I'll leave you be now, tjololo out!

I take a screenshot of the last page, upload to imgur, then submit with "no code provided" along with the imgur link.

@Just Matthew

You can take those suspender snaps right back, clearly transferring in the morning is what pays the big bucks.

*snaps suspenders he isn't wearing*

Weeeelp guess that answers that questions about if it was better to transfer at night or in the morning, the universe has spoken.

Master's qual as compensation would have been nice, but I won't complain!

...someone's response to the glitched transfers being cancelled. Oh /r/mturk, you so funny.

I just finished it, there's a lot of reading to do but it asks only a few questions after that. Totally worth doing for $6.

 

[Itsmee]

When you do, maybe we can have a chat. Again, not about survey content. Just about how safe/legit this is.

Good Idea... I will PM you when mine comes in....
