    Yeah I had a couple come up like that... I put it in the comment box, that way they still have the URL, but I'm just guessing on that. On a side note these are going much easier now and I have been on a pretty good streak ^_^

    I haven't seen any more of these, but at the start of the batch there were quite a few. I noticed that the search term included MD and well as DDS at first, but I've not seen that for a while now either.

    Well it is possible. Sometimes they change their mind, but not as often.

    Whoa - who was hoarding? I thought we were done, but there's another 200+ up.

    If it is the person I just manually removed qualification from, then you don't need to worry about that anymore :)

    It almost looked like Amazon oppsied. I accepted one with 200+ showing up and then when I submitted it 20 seconds later, it said there were none left.

    Are the HITs being hoarded at the end messing up the streamline process?

    this is still manual. The streamline process was not implemented as of yet.

    I'd imagine it's at the very least a factor, since in theory the next batch wouldn't be able to auto-load if the previous batch is incomplete. At least that's my understanding.

    I wasn't mad at whomever it was; hoarding is just part of the way things are. I was simply surprised at how many showed up so late. Don't know that I'll mention it again.

    Well I'm even more pissed because they took over 1000 HITs. I guess its "efficient" to whoever it was to just load the hit, select n/a and then submit.

    Ya hoarding is just part of mTurk. The only real way to limit it is to lower the timer on the hit.

    No speak up, its important to me that people don't abuse the system, their qualifications with us, Us, or any of you by doing crazy shist.

    Yup...I really don't want to have to start implementing restrictors where you have to wait "x" amount of time before it will allow you to submit.
