i'm writing a novel about being a turker, and some people are gonna have to die in the story.

guess i can use the tried and true method of pushing them off a standing platform at a train station
but that is getting stale, so i need new and exciting ways to off people, in the book of course, not that i would do this in real life.




i think
A haunted hit. It literally sucks you into your computer when you download the "totally allowed by Mturk's TOS" application required to complete that hit. Call it Inkillzit.

I'm sitting here watching my c-sats panda struggle to catch anything.

It switches between HAM and normal mode for like a minute straight.

Still doesn't catch anything.

It's okay buddy, at least you tried.



I'm bored.

Suppose it'll be possible to get into that without ever having seen any of Capaldi's series? I mean, don't get me wrong, he's great, but after watching him as Malcolm Tucker I could never, ever take him seriously as the Doctor.

(For those of you who don't know: this is Malcolm Tucker. Super NSFW, not safe to watch with kids around, so forth and so on.)

So I have a question that I am a bit embarrassed to ask as I've been around since January. I have been using MTS HIT finder and catcher no problems. But I didn't know how to put a requester search on. I can do that if I run Panda Crazy. But if I run PC at the same time as either HF or HC I'm getting large numbers of PREs.

I guess I have 2 questions.
1. Can I do a requester search on HC to find any hits by that requester?
and
2 if I can't and have to run PC as well, what speeds to put them at so I don't run into hundreds of PREs?

Thanks

Pretty much, you should be able to. They generally run self-contained storylines. Though not always. I missed some of the last seasons, but missed the end. And while I loved Capaldi as Tucker, I think he was a better Doctor.

You should make them make decision about whether to pull the lever so the train veers to hit 3 defenseless newbie turkers with stars in their eyes or not pull it and have the train mow down 6 survey hardened turkers.

I haven't really been able to stop sulking since the end of Tennant's series; am hoping that the Doctor being a lady now will help me get over it. I'm sure she'll be awesome :)

i think killing the newbies would be doing them a favor, as their hopes and dreams of turking would only leave them bitter, hardened, FML turkers.

so a quick death would be merciful
as far as the already hardened turkers, they are already ded inside...
