    Yeah I get that it's a joke, I really do, and if I had a qual batch go non-qual I'd be cranky too.

    It just gets very old seeing people joke about how crappy non masters are constantly on this board, as in multiple times every day. It's not very funny when there's nothing us non-masters can do about it. And as a result we lose out on money every single day, and again get to see jokes about our poor work.

    Meh, just salty about not having masters, just ignore me.

    Bingo. I see a decent amount of non-masters have great, solid, steady work. All about those quals.

    What is the selection process for Masters? Is there a minimum requirement? How often are workers selected for Masters?

    Yeah 5s pretty much save me from quitting turk. But when they take breaks, it can be a wasteland. Tricky to have all your eggs in one basket.

    Fairly random once certain benchmarks are met. Not even sure what those are but over 1000 approved?

    Hasn't been given out at all in 2016. But at least they randomly did away with captchas for some people, that has made a noticeable difference.

    Lottery as far as I can tell.

    All Masters are gods. Even those ones that got it while they were suspended or when they only had 2k hits under their belts.

    Last couple years they've just given it out once a year, in December. Seemed to be a lot of people (including me) last year, so it's been speculated they'll wait longer or not add as many this year.

    Selection process seems to be almost totally random, but that doesn't quell speculation that there are "golden batches" etc., or that not turking for a while increases the chances you'll get it (I find that one particularly silly).

    Yeah, this is a pretty good one if you can catch it. One question is a bit oddly worded, though.

    I've seen people with their accounts permanently suspended get it, while I sit over here, since 2010 (admittedly, much more not working than working for most of those years), will hit 100,000 HItS in September with a fake 100% and a nice little 30+ rejection cushion before I hit 99.9. Not even salty. Convinced myself I will never, ever, ever get it and don't even think about it. My only real gripe was the CAPTCHAs and they took those away for me now, so it is what it is.

    its based on looks. people who are not incredibly attractive get masters, so they dont feel so bad about themselves.

    So... I think I finally got rid of CAPTCHAs!!!

    I did those damn profile tasks a week ago and had them up until last night. Fingers crossed this sticks.
