I kept getting the same card over and over again. I am new to mTurk only 3 days in, so this worries me that requesters block for now reason, and don&#039;t respond to emails. I was told that if I get blocked again my account will be suspended . Anybody know how I can rectify this issue? Maybe get him to change ot from a hard to a soft block?]]></content:encoded>

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I just started doing Oscar Smith hits today. The first and second cards went well, but from the third hit on I keep getting the same business card. I saw in another thread that Oscar said to still fill out duplicates, no matter if you get a repeat even 7-8 times. But it has been 15 hits and it is STILL repeating the same card. Am I good to keep doing these? Really need to get my score up after being burned by a bad requester.<br />

What&#039;s the correct way to fill in the address for international cards? I know the lines have to match, but they don&#039;t have &quot;states&quot; and ship codes. I typically just filled in the info like it didn&#039;t have a state or zip and just put each line on the form to match each line of the card. <br />
