Speaking of Bezos, last night lots of non-Masters weren't getting CAPTCHAs. Is that still happening this morning?
It didn't happen to me yesterday, but today I did 140-odd Zolties with no captchas.

Ouch. I just did the $6 Miniature language hit by that other requester and now caught the $4.80 Miniature Language hit from Learning and Development lab.

2. You have not learned a miniature language on Mechanical Turk in the last year.

So...I guess I can't do it? lol :rain:

It's all part of my theory that Mturk is really just a decade long experiment. They are now dividing non masters into two separate groups..Non Captchas and Captchas. It's the Stanford Prison Experiment all over again.

It is an experiment though. Its an experiment to see if crowdsourcing has a market. If amazon ever decides that its not a profitable business venture, they will just shut down mturk for good.

it was for the a9 batch which is a amazon company or something
The people who were noticing it last night weren't all doing A9. Some were, but some were doing other HITs instead.
