05/10 - Wasabi Wednesday!

[Pippa]

Good night y'all sweet dreams.

 

[Kallee]

oh, yeah. I thought it was just me.

Yeah, I tried it again too with no luck - at least this time it froze up BEFORE I completed the whole thing. I would send him a message in case he opens it up again and limits it to people affected by this.

 

[basketcasey]

wow, it took me 87 minutes.
of course, I guess I'm also running on empty.
I woke up at 4am so that I can drive for three hours to get 29.2 miles into the heart of Philadelphia to spend 9 hours working with a complete moron, then drive for almost four hours to get home... and I have to wake up in five hours to do it all again tomorrow.

Yeah, the last part was a bit of a headache, but I've had a couple linguistics courses and really like anything to do with words/grammar/etc. And running on empty would definitely slow me down! Still 15 dollars isn't bad either way is it?

I appreciate the offer, and you're welcome to if you like. But it's okay if you don't. This whole experience has been incredibly emotionally draining for me and I seriously considering just throwing in the towel at this point, so I can start to move on and plan my next step.

It would be one thing if I were actually getting responses, boilerplate or not, but I've been getting nothing. It's like I wake up every morning and spend an hour writing out these long heartfelt messages, pleading with them while I'm fighting back tears, only to have them just seemingly get lost in a void somewhere. It's discouraging and it's upsetting. I can't do it anymore.

Don't give up! That seems to be the most common reason people never get their accounts back. You will at least get your $$ if you keep emailing them. It's annoying not getting a response but it happens to everyone. @Tribune would be more help than any of us regarding the particular incident. Have you included the "I will tell other potential requesters about my bad experience" story? Maybe try the AWS forums. I wish I could help more. If only requester and worker accounts were separate. I'm sorry you're going through this.

@electrolyte the information you edited out was visible in the hit preview, so I thought it was ok to post it.

The entire thing can be seen without accepting it.

Not that it's likely someone happen to be able to preview it

I understand why you edited it, but I'm just stating why I thought it was ok

Damn. Do I want to risk PandA'ing it overnight.

You might wanna wait unless you plan to get up and do it - it's a decent HIT for the money. He's posted it two nights in a row now.

There is a $5 bonus for your first hit right? I'd do that one and never do another one.

don't those say "first x turkers"

I would message to make sure they are still offering that bonus

I see this posted all the time and really enjoyed doing it earlier today. How many times are we allowed to do this? Will it let you do it more than once?
