I have no idea. I know nothing about how businesses work. I just don't see why they would do something to intentionally hurt the users and the requesters.
same here made 50.07 yesterday they started at 61000 close to 40000 last time I looked...... after 48 hours......might go into tomorrow.......who knows
Maybe I worry too much, but I've more or less cancelled plans for the next week and a half, assuming mturk will be a ghost town afterwards. Might have to change the name to MBrelig.
Morning early birds. You guys don't seem to require much sleep. I took a power nap for an hour and continued on this CR batch this morning. Hoping I can avoid the mid-day crash.
I don't even have to be up so early this morning, but woke at 5am and couldn't go back to sleep. Figured I'd work for an hour. Then off to get the kids and back at it Morning all!

What if all the amazing batch requesters post humungous batches before the price hike only for us to never see them again. Would be bittersweet.
I can see the bitter in that but no sweet. Not really more money. Because if all the requesters did that you can still only do so many hits a day and can't work at them all at once. So. I dunno. I think that would kind of really suck LOL
"The price increase is necessary to continue growing the Amazon Mechanical Turk marketplace and innovating on behalf of our customers,” according to an Amazon spokeswoman. “These changes will help us better serve our community of Requesters and Workers.” Means nothing, but it's the best reason I could find.
Um yes. Yesterday I didn't get up until like 9. I've been SO bad about sleeping in this summer. Having to get up to get the kids on daddy nights helps a lot. I'm up at 5:45 and usually just stay up after getting back to my house. lol
