    Up to 1600 now. I wish I could put in long hours like that, I'm just not motivated enough and burn out after about 12 hours. The longest and best day turking I ever had was with Rubins though.

    Do you get emails for every post to this thread?

    Rubin got the memo and bumped the pay up to .40 cents. All of a sudden I feel like doing these.....

    If that's the case I think there's bigger problems than football discussion.

    Every time there is a new post I do.

    But whatever, obviously my opinion is of the minority.

    I'll just be a lurker.

    Hey everyone, I haven't turked in about a week. How was everyones Christmas?

    Question... There was a $20 hit a few weeks ago about Christmas gifts. $5 initial survey that they paid promptly, then the 24th they sent another survey through email for another $5, plus an email survey they sent to the friend that you chose that would pay another $10 upon completion. I completed the 2nd $5 survey and my girl completed the 3rd $10 survey.

    Has anyone gotten paid the addition $15 yet? Sorry if this has been covered but like I said, I haven't been on here for about a week. Any info is greatly appreciated.

    IIRC, dude's email said they'd be paying bonuses when their school winter break was over, something like on or about 7 JAN.

    A little over 200 claiming bad data, if by bad data they mean name of the teacher and their email, source info, etc. And of course pointing out the issues with the course information when it's there because there's nothing else to do other than return it.

    This is one time I am not doing Matt's Hits if he is mass rejecting now. Woo saved myself the pain of that rejection protocol.

    I've sent them about a dozen emails in the last week through the mturk interface, not once did I get a reply. Yet others get replies. It's apparently my fault their quality control sucks. Nice. My score is now screwed and I won't be able to get close to 100% for at least a year at 97.7%

    How? I've emailed them through mturk "contact requester" at least a dozen times the past month. They have never emailed me back.

    Well that puts a damper on things. I guess they've changed their approval approach. All of mine have approved, including a few from this morning, but this makes me a lil wary.

    Hmm, someone posted on TO they got a hard block from them:

    Sometime within the last hour, I guess. I don't get it. Why do you reject the people who do the work and point out the bullshit your HITs contain, e.g. bad information from a college on the other side of the country.
