11/13 - Transitions Tuesday!

[Despairagus]

"Feature incomplete"? That sounds nice and fancy.

That does make it sound very exclusive.... HEY WHILE YOU'RE HERE... do you plan on adding a right-click-add-watcher like HC has?

 

[Liz]

what's a shim?

Turkers helping fellow Turkers catch Zoltars. The people here are SO great!

TBH I have 20 in my queue that are about to expire, I don't even really care to catch them. I'm pretty sure I do this every Tuesday. Catch and release. I don't know why I do things sometimes.

Click and hold the Go Ham button until it turns light blue. It will search for the hit, and 'go ham' when it finds a hit and after a bit if it does not catch any more it goes back to light blue. I am horrible at explaining this, sorry.

No, that's a great explanation. Kudos.

"I don't know why I do things sometimes." I'm interested in human psychology and I can tell you that ...... people are just weird much of the time. ( And the brain rules and does its own thing much of the time. To our consternation )

Thanks!

You do it so that I can grab them now that I have the GID instead of the Requester ID on Panda. TY for your service.

Yayyyyy!

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from The Wharton School for work related to 3EPG8DX9LKQSVVWAW8O9SX1QRPCP5B.
The value of your bonus is: $1.00 USD

The Requester included this note:
Thank you for your careful driving.

Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!

 

[klyde]

Thanks!

Just wanted to say thanks too. I always forget about that option and I never knew that it turns off if it doesn't catch anymore after awhile. Will have to remember that.

You're very welcome. I'm happy to help.

Why do people keep saying this? Dude, it's free money. Just enjoy the ride.

Because look at what happened to mturk with the 'bot scare.' Requesters stop using mturk when they are afraid of poor quality. We all know (we, as in folks who have been here for awhile) of requesters who got tired of garbage answers and left the platform.

Not everyone cares about the 'mturk workforce'. Some folks are in it with blinders on and only care about themselves. That's life. But this forum DOES have a rule about this:
• Maintain integrity when working on HITs. Follow Requester instructions and abide by the MTurk Terms of Service.

These are OUR TOS.

$12.50 for 1.5 hrs of work. I think that's enough until later. Hope you all can catch all the Zoltars you can handle in the meantime!

@jan can we call you Judge Judy now?

From like regular browser webpages? If so then I've been looking into how to do something on that front (and I also want a communicator for easier userscript installs).

You can do this for now though.

My new(er) mouse started double clicking so I had to go back to my old one and now I have to hit enter and ctrltab on the keyboard. Life is hard.

Yeah I meant from the forum and things like that, but holy SNOT that looks really convenient. You are a true MVP.

Ok cool, then I assumed right. Yeah, I eventually want a right click, buttons or something. You can drag pretty much into anywhere (except where you can drag the window, but you can drop it on the buttons) on any page too, not just the watchers page.

Good Morning!!! How is today going so far?
