eeek, hope it's not a car

Hey, I was thinking about this earlier and its bothering me enough to ask you about it. You have a keyword alert set to notify you when someones types your name, right? So does that mean you get 2 notifications when you get tagged?

How many HITs of this unknown batch did you do before deciding it was too risky to do anymore for fear of rejection?

Too many. Normally, the rule would be to not risk anything more than what would bring you below 99% approval rating. That said, I had a quick email exchange with the requester to clarify an instruction and felt reasonable assured after that. Everyone risk tolerance is different and, it was definitely "scared money" but, it worked out and I didn't get any rejections.
Otherwise, if it's unproven, I'll do a few testers. But, other than that one, I don't usually cross the, "what can bring me below 99%, with one unproven requester" rule. Each HIT is taken on a case by case basis.

I'm curious, what's the average number of HITs batches are posted in usually? The good ones.

I don't know, everyone has babies, but how many people have a 2018 Rolls Royce Phantom ?

There isn't one.(not that I've noticed. It's all over the place. however many they have.) between 25 and 13000, ime. Most don't get that high but, volume and quality have no real relation.

Also, lots of the good batches post, then get more and repost, etc.

....................................................................... [a "hoopy frood"?]

In the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams, hoopy is defined as "a really together guy."

A frood is defined as "a really amazingly together guy."
An example from the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy which discusses the importance of towels is as follows:

"Hey you, sass that hoopy Ford Prefect? There's a frood who really knows where his towel is!"

We have listened to the book and watched this movie twice. It never gets old. Always more to observe/hear/read/catch on to. My kid loves this book/movie.

the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy
1: A book.

Not only is it a wholly remarkable book, it is also a highly successful one- more popular than the Celestial Home Care Omnibus, better selling than Fifty-Three More Things to Do in Zero Gravity, and more controversial than Oolon Colluphid's trilogy of philospophical blockbusters, Where God Went Wrong, Some More of God's Greatest Mistakes, and Who Is This God Person Anyway?

In many of the more relaxed civilizations on the Outer Eastern Rim of the Galaxy, the Hitchhiker's Guide has already supplanted the great Encyclopedia Galatica as the standard repository of all knowledge and wisdom, for though it has many omissions and contains much that is apocryhal, or at least wildly inaccurate, it scores over the older, more pedestrian work in two important respects.

First, it is slightly cheaper; and second, it has the words Don't Panic inscribed in large friendly letters on its cover.

2: Also a book.
Written by Douglas Adams, which centers on the book that the book takes its name from. Not to say that the book deals entirely with the book, but that the book is, in the book, a central part. Of the book, that is.The first in a 5 book trilogy.

I barely started lol. Just came back from walmart. Already done 20. Not getting much to tag which makes these worth it.
