Sorry to seem nosy but is the OW you are talking about overwatch? What exactly is that? is it like Turkmaster? I am not very tech savy or up to date on all the cool gadgets and doodads people use to turk better/more efficiently but i know alot of people say turkmaster sucks and i swear someone told me yesterday to use something called overwatch i think? I was just wondering if you could give me your opinion on it? Thanks for any advice or help you (or anyone else reading this that wants to chime in) can give me! I am a sponge ready to soak up some knowledge

Morning!

I feel that things have been business as usual (but with a bit more hustle) for the daily workers. Probably more difficult for those with children and other priorities. There's work, but in smaller windows, so if you happen to be SOL for any given day, it becomes more apparent. Even shittier if you're missing some vital quals.

Zoltars are nice for their previous consistency, but we've become way too fat and complacent on them, which is a bad habit for this kind of work platform.

Annnyway, this is far too much bigboy talk for a nice Saturday morning so I'll just leave it with a highly amusing image.

Yes it is overwatch. It's just a watcher. you put in a req id and run it. It will notify you when that requester posts.

Turkmaster doesn't suck.
Just not a lot of people use it to it's full potential.

Is that the thing kaduchi made recently? And it plays some weird rock song everytime it accepts a HIT you had on your list?
both. Mturk suite is the one Kadauchi @Kadauchi made recently. PC is the one that plays the song about not taking presents from strangers. They actually work together now since kad added the "Hit Catcher" part. It will automatically add a panda to pc right from the mturk page.

omg haha is that what the song is saying!? My husband uses it on his laptop (and being in the military has made him practically deaf i swear, so he CRANKS his speaker volume up) And so every 10 seconds i gotta listen to it. You guys ever get an annoying song stuck in your head that you HATE (and because you hate it you dont even bother to learn or pay attention to the words, you just make up words that are basically like the sound of the wawa pedal of a guitar but in word form) but when you hear it you just sing along super enthusiastically using the nonsensical words (i get really into it, watch out Mariah Carey you got competition) yeah thats what that annoying song has done to me... ill BELT that shit out for ALL the neighbors to hear lol i bet they think it is some freaky foreplay thing or something by now what with all the "OH YEAAAAHHHH'S!!!" and "HURRY UP AND FINISH ALREADY!!!" and also "HOW MUCH LONGER CAN YOU POSSIBLY LASSSSSTTT????!!!!!"

You can always mute it if it's something you're accepting every 10 seconds.
