    Caught it. I'll see how it is.

    Ugh. It froze sort of at the beginning. Sending message and probably will return it.

    Does anybody else find the Rashkins too confusing to do?
    Is it just me? Just looking them over, trying to find one I feel confident enough to try is giving me a rash on my frontal lobe.

    "Why test it yourself when there are thousands of turkers who'll do it for free?!" --all the requesters

    (I'm letting it rot in my queue to reduce the number of turkers who waste their time on this. I'm sure I only caught it because someone else tossed it due to it being broken.)

    Arg! I HATE dumbass attention checks... :(

    If people can miss seeing a damn gorilla walking across a basketball court because they are intensely paying attention to what they were told to pay attention to... why do they expect us to notice trivia when we are watching videos or playing games, following directions, and paying attention to what we are supposed to be paying attention to???

    Hey folks, I was wondering, did anyone else get this email earlier? I got this just after 7pm EDT:


    "Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

    One of your Qualifications has been revoked by the Requester who maintains the Qualification. Please see details about the Qualification below.

    Qualification Revoked: WC
    Requester: Linda Hagen
    Grant Date: April 24, 2018
    Revoke Date: April 25, 2018
    Revoke Reason: Bulk Administration"


    I have no idea what this is about, but I guess it's nothing major??

    I don't know anything about this one in particular, but the "Bulk Administration" ones are usually just requesters cleaning up after a project. For example, they might give you the qual when you do a survey to stop you from retaking it. Once they have all the data they remove it again because they have OCD (most requesters seem to just let quals linger forever, I have an absurd number from various surveys).

    No idea what triggers Amazon to send that email. Usually you get and lose quals without any notification, but ever so often they send out that email to worry everyone. :)

    usually just to prevent a retake.
    I would love to know how these ominous sounding pointless emails survived a site rewrite.
    we gain and lose other qualifications every day that we never hear about
