07/23 - To Tuesday!

[Katia2019]

Good afternoon everyone!

I posted in this forum previously about a simultaneous group game, got a lot of great advice. I coordinated with our programmers to set up an invitation HIT to avoid issues with queues and bots.


We will be posting an invitation HIT at 3PM ET today so that we can message those who sign up with the game links. The game should start at 4PM ET.

The game is an interactive online game, and it should take approximately 45 minutes. If you have played this game before, you won't be able to participate again.


Here is my colleague (who is the requester)'s TurkerView profile:

https://turkerview.com/requesters/A1ZZF7C2CMECZN-robert-chaudoin#



The base pay for this invitation HIT is 0.01 to avoid autograbbers' filters. The actual compensation will be disbursed through bonus payments for those who actually show up and complete the game.


Here is the title of invitation HIT that will go up :

Sign-up for a higher paying task (approx $15/45 minutes) to take place TODAY (7/23) @ 4PM ET



Here is the HIT Description:

This is a sign up HIT to gather workers for a game. Only accept this HIT if you can join the game today (7/23) at 4PM ET and participate for approximately 45 minutes.



Payment:

The total payment for completing the game is expected to be from $11 - $17.

When you complete the game, you will automatically receive $5.

You will be paid an additional amount based on the number of points you score in the game. These amounts have generally ranged from $6 - $12.

If more people than are needed sign up to play the game, you will still be paid a show up fee of $1 for the few minutes that you spend on answering some questions and reading the game’s instructions. We will keep track of the number of participants and will excuse any extra participants.

Your additional payment, either from playing the game or from the show up fee, will be submitted as a bonus payment to this HIT.

Will there be more of these at a future time? I am not able to do it at that time, but interested in it.

There are two different HITs/requesters/games/things going on... make sure you're talking about the correct one.

Don't feel too bad. It didn't work in the end and you only lost $1.

Did everyone get kicked out of that game with a message? I'm stuck at a loading screen.

.....why? o.0

What'd I miss?

The one I did yesterday was pretty heartbreaking. Today's two were hilarious though.

$1 for sitting around doing nothing wouldn't have been bad though lol.

Sounds like it. I'd message the requester.

Well, these were gone in a heartbeat - he should have just used the first group he signed up and whom had trained.
