First time I did mosaic today, did about 40 receipts and then stopped. Just got this: Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk, You've received a bonus from mosaic for work related to 3QMELQS6Y5UO9R12QLDPX7MMTDF6R2. The value of your bonus is: $4.08 USD The Requester included this note: Bonus for receipt labeling task. Contact us for statistics. Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk! Should have kept going!
Is there a panda or something for those mosaics? I have an email from last night telling me to take the qual but I can't find it. I did the one he posted in here a few days ago, I assume that's how he got my email. Did I miss the qual already? If so, I'll just email him and ask him to set me up.
Receipt hits that only had you type in 4 entries instead of the whole receipt like those other requesters. He posted in here the other day asking us if what we thought about the pay. He paid us like .36 for the hit. In the email he sent out last night, it says that he lowered the pay to .08. I wonder what dipshit told him he was paying too much. I replied to him in here explaining how the reason why receipt hits are a joke is because of the pay, and even thanked him for being somewhat fair in pay. But due to what other people told him, he thinks $7/hour is good pay. Don't get me started. I hate when people tell requesters they pay too much. Seriously, go jump off a bridge.
The HIT was yesterday afternoon called "QUAL HIT: Extract simple information (4 items) from a stream of receipt images. Bonuses of $0.02 to $0.04 available." I didn't really know what it was and started doing it. It had a 60 minute timer, and could do as many receipts as you wanted, or submit it anytime. I ended up doing 20 minutes worth (about 45 receipts), and then submitted and went back to doing something else. If I knew it was going to pay so good, I would have done the whole hour. Edit: If you completed a receipt under 30 seconds, you got a 4 cent bonus, if under 60 seconds, a 2 cent bonus.
Oh, he dropped the bonus too? The other day the bonus was .80 for 4 receipts. Man, someone really screwed themselves.

Anyone else getting "Task is currently not available. Please, try to complete this task later." on their WVIs now? They were working fine.
Seems like they pulled 1,500 of them. Most of my queue turned into that when the numbers dropped, just returned them and picked up new ones.
This is good to know. I didn't have any in my queue. I just woke up and saw 2.4k, expecting it to last long enough I got up, made a cup of coffee and when I sat down at my computer there were only 800. I was just baffled by that.
