    If you read the TO, the lack of word count seems intentional. Both seem pretty easy to coherently ramble on, anyway.

    Welcome. It's so weird - I thought about studying music once - got as far as audio engineering/production, but I'm completely lost on actual theory. Can't read music worth a damn. Flung myself out of my violin lessons because staring at that sheet music drove me bonkers. Guitar's just sitting there all lonely because fuck tabs. But I've been playing keyboard and producing forever - totally by ear. Couldn't even tell ya what key half my shit is in.

    Saying we're elite was a bit tongue in cheek, but it was mostly serious.

    We don't know what they classify as elite. Presumably it's some number of submitted HITs and a minimum approval rate. I don't think being suspended has any bearing and I don't believe it should. They can suspend you at any time without the need to even give a reason. JAWN is a perfect example.

    If the qualifications are 1k approved and 98% approval, most people here probably qualify. But they can't just make everyone Masters because that would water down the pool too much and would make the qual worthless. Whether you are taking a break or even suspended, if your account still meets the qualifications, they likely just pick from that pool at random when they decide they need more Masters. That's my take on the whole process anyway. But of course none of us really know.

    Do you remember when we could record within the hit? And the batches seemed to last for days?

    "You previously completed this HIT.

    We warned you not to repeat the HIT.

    Your only choice, now, is to return the HIT."

    well actually, no I didn't. All I did was close the hit and reopen it but i don't want to do your shitty hit anyway. So there.

    I was wondering why I didn't have any captchas. I haven't been working steady in a couple of weeks. It was nice not to have to stop during a batch to enter a code.

    The closest anyone has been able to figure is that doing those profile tasks they put up awhile back is what did it. It doesn't seem to be the case for everyone, but more often then not, the people that lost captchas were the ones who had done the profile tasks.

    Anyone know if they get mad if you can't start the next writing prompt right away on the 10.00 and if you still write for the 8min but can't start it right when the page opens? Got pulled away to do insulin pump stuff. Blah.

    I agree and I regret my brief moment of hesitancy while I decided if I could do more than one or not.
