Can't find good HITs? 12/17

it was actually a 20 dollar hit...5 dollars just to qualify then 10 bucks if your friend/relative completes fridays survey and 5 if you complete your own follow up.

 

Is anyone else doing this Native Speaker HIT? Are we just supposed to close the program when we're done, or what?

 

i think people were complaining about much shittier work than that. and i think we've all learned to basically ignore those links...

 

i dont think you should say you want to murder anyone after this past friday bro....

 

Honestly, it would probably be easier to try to pick up on when I'm being serious.

 

Only works in Firefox for people who are trying it.

 

Yeah, bro. Sarcasm is off limits now. Didn't you hear Obama?

Requester: CrowdFlower Reward: $0.05 per HIT

This looks like way too much work for a nickel to me, but some may want to do these!

 

that's what i did. they said 1 hour and that time is up.

 

has anyone else gotten rejections from Classify This?

 

well dang, i feel even worse haha. dang bladder, screwing me out of money!

 

Who hasn't? I get about 0-2 per 1k now though but I have been doing them for quite some time. The key is to return what you are unsure of.

Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!

 

I have... it happens, they are majority rules. That being said, I still do them, anything that seems the slightest bit iffy I return....

 

i got 3 out of <150 rejected. the reasoning is nice and vague, "The system rejected this answer because it does not match 2 other workers."

at least i got enough accepted that it didn't change my acceptance %

being able to knock out a .02 hit in less than 10 secs is fine by me. works out to at least .12 a min

 

Were any medcrowd qualifications posted today? I think I missed some.

 

Nope. It sounded like he might not post any for awhile now. Go read the thread in the requesters forum.

 

On a lot of those Rubin HITs the problem is people are not putting the actual class names that they find, but instead are just copying and pasting the course name that is listed. The problem with that is someone may have actually found a course that fits the description but if the name is not correct it leads the .50 batch all over the place.

But to say that this batch was any worse is probably not true.

 

so any batches up now?

 

Today's rubin batch was my easiest batch yet. I only had to return 1 or 2 out of 30+ due to crappy course names.
