[C to the J]

I think someone mentioned the problem with scripts, but I didn't know it was to this extent..

Hi again.



Either do a low value HIT for a penny and then post about it here or do like @MarkC said do a qualification HIT and email everyone 15 minutes before the game starts.

Best way to get it to fill up.

I've been hanging out with my friend trying to ID all the plants around the new house and such did I miss a ton of money?

Got it - thank you so much. we will try the first option first as I think it sounds like a lower hanging fruit than the latter. It will involve making some programming changes since we will need to adjust the bonus in the backend so everyone gets the completion fee regardless of game performance. I will contact the programmers working on this first thing Monday to make these changes. We will try these out and run more HITs using the strategy starting next Monday around the same time (4:30PM). I will post about it ahead of time as I did today.

Thanks everyone for your helpful tips and feedback - I really do appreciate it!

how funny. 2 things today that I haven't seen in quite awhile:
1. captchas. I think I've managed maybe 20-25 hits on any given day for quite awhile now.
2. sergey topics soft caps. haven't done more than about 15 sergey topics in any given day for months now.
crazy day so far.

Please check my colleague (who is the requester)'s TurkerView profile by putting his name Robert Chaudoin in the search box. (I tried to paste the link here but having the link flagged the post as spam-like)

I think you have to make a certain # of posts before you can post links. (To prevent spammers ) (Right @Staff ?)
Also, I think it might be helpful (for future posts) if you specified a time zone, people are more likely to find it, because we're always multitasking, and might need to go back to looking for it when it pops up.

Yes, just 3 posts, so they should be able to post links now.

Yes, that makes a lot of sense. I hadn't thought of that! Thanks so much for the tip!
