Well those VSRs put me at $67 for the day. Rest was mostly due to that enormous cat batch in the morning. Hope to wake to one again tomorrow.
VSR's are sometimes referred to as barcodes. The board is split between those of us who like them and those who steer clear because they are known to be reviewed. I don't think anyone has had any problems with them yet. Quick easy money as long as they don't add anymore steps to them.
I've done maybe 100 of them, total. They seem easy enough, but they just give me a bad feeling for some reason, so I leave them for you guys.
I probably did no more than 30 when I got hit with google captchas. I wish I knew what triggered those damn things.
Anyone else get this? Message from prelytics (info@prelytics.io) --------------------------------- Hi, we discovered a significant bug with our survey that you completed. We've posted a new survey. You'll keep the credit for the original survey, but we would like you to complete the new survey as well for an additional credit. --------------------------------- Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk, The message above was sent by an Amazon Mechanical Turk user. Please review the message and respond to it as you see fit.
I got it and they told me that it's the same 2 dollar survey they posted before. Do it again and get paid again if you qualify.
I qualified for the first one, but failed on the first screen of the second, with the same answers. Oh well, they already paid the first one.
I seem to remember someone losing masters after doing a batch. They also seem to have two TO accounts. One has two mentions of account warnings. Here's the merged TO: https://turkopticon.ucsd.edu/reports?id=A2QXTI4H4W71Q4
