They started early as usual. It froze on me halfway through. This is a first. I've done this in the past with no issues.
Reloading "fixed" it, but there were all kinds of gaps where other people weren't managing to submit scores. One person never came back. And that exit survey for 50 cents was a no-show also.
I opened the email at 4:02, and was disqual-ed. The 2nd one opened, but I thought it was a stupid way to spend my time. Tossed it.
I was afraid to reload so I didn't. Just sat there staring at it. Now that it's really over, I just refreshed and that's the end. Same. No 50c survey.
You have to show up 10 min beforehand. They are known to start early. You can see when the email was sent. They'll invite you again. Next time be there 10 min early and watch for the email.
After a minute or two of staring at a locked up screen I figured I had nothing to lose by refreshing.:dunno:
they could set the email up better. the first one gives you a link to reserve your spot the 2nd email is a reminder, I missed the first one, they didn't say you had to read the email the email just before start time should tell you they run ahead a few minutes not sure what the point is, they give bonuses to a few people who make the best search for answers? usually just a quick dollar but they managed to screw that up this time
I was still brushing my teeth, making breakfast, and turning on the machine 10 minutes before.Almost doesn't pay to work today.
Can't get this to work.
