You realize this is a canned response.

Surveys on left batches on the right, questions?

Batches on left, surveys on right for me. Also, ding for batches and squee for surveys.

Is there really a point in limiting yourself to 10 HITs per page after the pagesize update several months ago? You could get the same results and fewer page requests with 50+ per page and only one page scrape.

Hi! I don't want to be rude, but are new people welcome here?

The pictures wouldn't load for me.

took me about ten minutes to do, but would have been about 7 if I wasn't distracted. fairly easy, but it's annoying that you have to click the breed and then choose how sure you are on a sliding bar. overall, 5/7, would do again, despite being less than $4/hr

I always keep mine set to below 30, just because TO always seems to slow it down.

Hi! I don't want to be rude, but are new people welcome here?

Of course, always! Hi.
