Hello Everyone,
Am jessy here. Is there anyone know why 411Richmond is posting low number of hits for the past two weeks.

Have you tried contacting the requester? I don't know if they're responsive but it's worth a try.

 

[catnapped]

I was gonna let you borrow Stabby the unicorn for the day, but it won't let me post him

It's the thought that counts. Thanks!

panda for vdx in case anyone missed them https://www.mturk.com/mturk/previewandaccept?groupId=35DNGIKWRF4RALOXV8NU140B0AC71M

10, it will not let you do anymore.

Do you have to be able to grab all 10 for the qual?

 

[the miser]

I wonder the same thing, but I already got an email that says I got an 80. I only had 2 n/a's so not sure why I didn't get higher. Wonder if they will post more? I heard you had to get a 90 but I don't know for sure.

I'd like to know as well. I didn't have any n/a's and got an 80. Maybe I need to stick to designing buildings lol.

I seriously don't know why I didn't get higher than an 80. I am 99.99% sure I did them correctly. I really wish I knew. I hope more get posted soon. Ugh. So frustrating. I waited to leave for work so I could do these, now I'm going to be late. Oh well. What can you do?

Don't worry guys the new VDX qual is shit anyways... I think the only reason he opened it up is because the people with the normal VDX qual wouldn't do them. But they are good filler I suppose

Ya i tried but no reply from them. Thank you.

 

[K'Lee]

So question for anyone who might know. Since I got an 80 on the vdx does that mean I have to wait til they post more & do 10 more to try and get a higher score, or do you just have to do a few more correctly in addition to the ones you already did right? ConFused

 

[electrolyte]

I don't know if the VDX email about this got posted here or not but just in case, here it is:

---------------------------------
Hi All,
I just uploaded a new qualification. This is for a short-term project regarding photo acquisition. Some of you have done this before where you click on a link i provide, search the site for the provider (if they exist), verify their address, and copy the image and web url. If you have the 2016 qualification (which all of you do) you will still need to take this test to partake in this project. The project is going to be somewhat short term (maybe a month, two months max). All other non-related work will most likely be given to this group, but if you want to work on this project you need to take the qualification. It's pretty easy!

No, it means you got 80 and that's your forever score. AFAIK, he doesn't allow for re-tries unless he posts a whole new qual project/batch.

You won't be able to do anymore.

I don't think anyone will know but the requester, but I think receipts are based on what people submit so maybe people aren't doing as much buying this week. Which would make sense, since it's the end of the month.

 

[K'Lee]

I just don't get it. I only had 2 n/a's and the doc didn't exist so I'm sure that was right? And I obviously (or maybe not) did them right or I wouldn't have even gotten the 80. It's just frustrating is all. Oh well, I guess I'll drink more coffee.

unless vdx is changing their tune they have not had a review past 1 in pay for over a year https://turkopticon.ucsd.edu/reports?id=A3AGILFBOVKI09
