    nooo not 100% approval rate, 100 completed HITs. To have an exact number for completed HITs like that is nearly impossible

    No SH*T!!!! I do a bit of transcribing and anything over 30 minutes gives me a headache! A 5 hour one would just kill me. I do transcribing at about 5x audio length thanks to some GREAT help I got from a good member here, but even at that it would be 25 hours. 25 hours would mean I would need to make $150.oo for it to be worth it! And to be honest - even that wouldn't be enough!

    The bestest transcribers do about 3x audio length and that would be $90 at $6 per hour... They might be able to justify it - but it's a risk!

    Email them... They meant to say over 100... They F**ked up and would probably like to know. They meant to say over 100 HITs.

    Yeah -- sometimes I sent those people messages and explain to them what they have done and what they were probably trying to do. Kind of a public service I provide...

    Rob, you are rubbing off on me :)

    **NOTE. Your HIT will only be accepted if you received an email invitation to re-take this survey.

    :/

    I think this is just if you were emailed to retake the survey! Wish I was one that had gotten the email! :)

    ETA...Poster above beat me to it!

    I got an email invitation to retake the 5B survey. I wonder why they need some people to retake it?

    Hmmm, who knows! Did you get paid for the first one you took? If so, look at it this way, doubling your money! Well, I hope it was at least a decently quick survey! :)

    It's not too quick (you have to rate many pages worth of decently sized blocks of text), but I'll do anything for $2 at this point :D

    I'm off the Catherine HITs for the night... I think it was down to just the ones all you bastards returned - I was marking close to 30% of them as "ambiguous" there toward the end.
