    Sometimes on the "YouTube Artist" HITs it will let you do a few more if you try again in 15 - 30 minutes after it initially cuts you off, but when/if it cuts you off the second time for the day that seems to be the end of it.

    I really wish this 2 cent Instant.ly weren't running on such a shitty server they are taking forever to load. Have to freaking 10 tab them and they still aren't all loading in time.

    EDITED: One person has reported the HIT expired even though s/he was going quickly and another has reported it taking 13 minutes (on a 16-minute timer) so this may be risky.

    ~10 minutes. Watch the 16-minute timer.

    It seemed like I got quite a few of them wrong but I still ended up with a bonus of $1.25. YMMV. I know I can't really say much about it but I found this task to be (unintentionally) humorous. I was laughing my ass off half the time.

    I don't like that emphasis on the word possible there.

    That's quite a punishment. Some people get lighter sentences for attempted murder.

    I estimate I got around ~40% of the questions wrong and I still got a $1.25 bonus. Obviously I can't promise anyone else they will or will not get a bonus (even though I think it is performance-based), but having completed the task I feel like if I could get the bonus, most other people could as well if they are paying attention and giving the task a real shot.

    I can tell you that the task will take about 10 minutes for sure.

    Since there is nothing else going on, a stupid question: what is with the "Approved - Pending Payment"? Does Amazon just want to hang onto our money for a few extra hours, or is there an actual possibility of being approved but not paid?

    Just wondering.

    For anyone who missed it earlier, it's back.

    It's an annoying HIT, and it will take a solid ~20 minutes, but thought I would throw it out there since it's been a slow day.
