    Flora: Please change it to Can't Find HITs? 9/11 It's Grandparents Day and Patriot Day!

    I didn't mean to offend anyone by not mentioning Patriot Day. Sorry to those that I've offended.
    Updated the graphics to reflect the dual holidays today.

    You didn't offend anyone, or at least it shouldn't have offended anyone. Don't even worry about it!

    Good morning!

    Transferred today for tomorrow's deposit in the bank. Got the email few minutes after the transfer. That's an improvement from last week where it took 6 hours before I got the confirmation email that the withdrawal was initiated.

    Man. You're lucky. I wish 6s would be like that.

    Did you get the qual for the newest 6s batch? Halloween one. He's supposed to be putting out lots of them soon.

    Morning everyone! Got my 100th HIT last night and just waiting for approval!

    Coming at you yet again with another few questions:

    1. Should I request any quals that I do not have? Do requesters actually respond to these or are they linked through unpaid HITs?

    2. What are these QCMP# (Something like that) batches and why are there so many of them? Can't remember the name right now, or else I'd look em up myself.

    Thanks, and good luck today!

    Congrats on your 100th HIT!

    The best way to get quals is when the batch is up with a qual test. They do not respond to requests through "request the qual" in their HITs. They probably don't even get those on their end. In rare cases when a qual batch up, sending them a PM sometimes works.

    OCMP is a "company" that gets work from other requesters that use them to put out their work for us to do. They are under various names. OCMP69, OCMP5, etc... I think they are not related to each other. They are individual with their own tasks.

    Really, really cool stuff after doing some reading on OCMP. Took several classes on machine learning, and it seems MIT has figured out the best way to do it... brute force ;) Would love to get into that eventually once I get my HIT count high enough.

    You got enough 5s to keep you busy lol. I'm surprised they haven't run out yet. And they run on weekends too. 6s don't do that.
