Finding Great HITs 05/10 Trendy Toe-Tapping Three-Toed Thursday

Took me just under 2 hours, but I got carried away and wrote probably way too much. You can do that easily in much less time.

 

If they didn't ask you in the survey, then I would not worry about it. If they did then you probably should. You don't want a rejection.

Happened to me too. One HIT I did was for native speakers only. The did ask if you were a native speaker inside the survey. I answered truthfully. Instead of kicking me out, they let me finish the HIT and then gave a rejection.

 

"Enter your Mturk ID here to see if you are eligible for our hit" *enters Mturk ID* "You have not completed any surveys in this group. Please accept the hit to continue." *accepts hit* "Unfortunately our records indicate that you have already taken this survey. Please return the HIT if you have accepted it, and please feel free to take another of our surveys in the future." Oh...

 

30 minutes of bubble hell monstrosity for 50 cents...yeah I am so shitting on this guys TO for being a cheapass...

 

Or not...TO removed the option to report from the hits page for some reason...

 

9 minutes. Some writing at the beginning but not bad.

Also "Allu Akbar Accounting" is quite possibly the worst name for a company ever. Right up there with "Hitler love federal bank" or "Kremlin fried chicken, when you're Russian for chicken there's no time for Stalin!"

 

Whoever made that grocery shopping hit had no idea what they were doing. First it took several tries to get past the initial briefing screen because the next button would just have a loading circle and then stop without advancing the page. Then the actual button to go to the task doesn't do anything. The source code of the site shows that the button literally doesn't link to anything. It's just there.

 

Probably worth a panda if you like brain pretzels. Took me 25 minutes.
