Hi, for people using Hitfinder, on Friday so we think that it'll be switched over to pull fromt he new site? I mean, I've switched my settings to the worker site, but my hits still come from the old site right now. I though someone said they thought the plan was that it was being worked on. Does anyone have any news about it? Am I missing something?

The HITs come from Worker, they just point to Www since that was the most used site. MTS HF will be good to go by Friday, the userscript will not.

Hey there great, thank you very much. (Not sure I know what the userscript is, but pretty happy to hear about HF.)

Is this why the Worker URL for Finder isn't working? I've been trying it on and off all day and nothing.

That's because of something else but will be addressed in the same update.

Current progress and updates

MTS:

Every feature from MTurk Suite may not work while if your account is still being fully migrated over to Worker. Expect updates scattered throughout the weekend while bugs get fixed and features tweaked.
HIT Finder and HIT Tracker are the next things to be updated. HIT Finder was updated just enough to limp along for a few hours. HIT Finder (Legacy) was untouched as it is being removed. It will ask if you want to import your include/blocklist from the legacy version when legacy is removed.
Requester Review coloring will be coming over the weekend.

TL;DR be patient as things will actively be updated and fixed.


TurkMaster:

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/4771-turkmaster-mturk

2017-12-13 - Updated to support the new worker site. There may be a few minor issues when using Turkmaster with the new site but wanted to have something usable before the cutoff on Dec. 15th

and a note for everyone - your old watchers will get imported to the new TM on the worker site but won't work. you should set up new watchers using the new site and TM will work on the new site

The more I use the new worker site, the more that I hate it. It resets filter preferences every time a new search page is loaded. It does a bunch of useless and buggy redirecting, and the restrictions on grabbing hits are terrible. I dunno how it's possible to spend so much time on something and end up with a product that's a downgrade from one of the most outdated sites on the internet, but apparently it's possible.

Is there anymore information about AA on worker, or have they decided to not let us see it at all anymore?

They're not going to let us see it.

 

[Serial Mom]

They're not going to let us see it.

Which is major bs!

@kryss this is showing aa on the new site, is this going to disappear?

Hmm... what script is pulling it?

 

[Serial Mom]

looks like Kada's AA database script

It's pulling it from www and also saving it, so if you view that hit again on worker you'll have the AA. Unless amazon screws up and makes the AA available somewhere, they're not planning on having it known.

damnit! I was trying, lol!

Their objective is to prevent workers from scamming HITs with short AA times.

Sure hope TPTB doesn't get ideas to mess around with the requester defaults....

(I shouldn't even say that because of 'eyes' and 'ears')
