Masters is a way for AR-WA to unwind at the end of the day by reading our wild speculation and laughing.
I can't believe no one else but me can see the connection SMH. It's 100% true and it plays a big part in it I am 100% convinced.
Wow, thank you so much for that helpful reply. I hadn't read anything on this board prior to my post, so I had no idea of what the current conversation was. If anyone, anyone at all, can offer me something helpful, it would be much appreciated. So far, I'm inclined to believe the theory about people who haven't Turked in a while and slough the whole thing off as a bunch of b.s.
I'm again just going the average master is probably slightly better then the average master, but it is minor at best and there are clearly many non masters much much better then some masters most likely a majority of masters. I mean look at sakuraiikeda how many masters do we figure are up to his level.
Your still on that lol someone is pretty damn mad over my treatment of drunk bums. Take a deep breath man and move on with your life it's not that important.
Except as we've seen there are plenty of people who did take long breaks from mturk who do not have masters. Similarly a number of people who got masters every batch that has gone out since I've been here never took any sort of break. Sure it is the case that every batch some people who got masters had taken a break, but that is due to the cyclic nature of mturk with lots of people taking breaks all the time. Is it possible it has an effect sure I'll even go there is a decent enough chance at it. Is it a major role probably not.
Some groups are simply more deserving than others. It's probably a good thing that certain groups are on the top.
Also a good chance of this. I refuse to agree to this unless I get to be one of the groups that are more deserving then others and get to be on top.
Honestly, there's not that much to know. Masters takes away your CAPTCHAs and gives you access to a lot more HITs. Like non-masters HITs, a lot of them are good, and a lot are bad. The biggest advantage (IMO) is just having more work available, plus there are semi-frequent extremely lucrative masters batches. I've also noticed there tend to be a decent amount of well paying surveys for masters too. It's easier to make more money, but you still usually have to grind-and of course it always helps to be on at the right time. I wouldn't bother with the masters Amazon forum-it's very very dead and not very helpful at all. I signed up just to check it out, but I think I've gone there twice.
