When I clicked on it ( I was curious if it was a joke) it was available to anyone and u were able to check if u have done it or not. So, I don't think it was for a particular worker, it would have been mentioned somewhere...
He gave me a bonus of $1.39, am I allowed to tell you all that? I just don't want to give him a bad name. He was pretty nice in his email about it .__.
There were 2 in the course of the evening. One (the one JuneB first posted) was open to anyone and was for $0. I looked at it too, and there was a way to tell if you had participated before. That went away and a new $0 one was put up (the one for a particular user). Then there is also a new one that is the actual survey for $1.39 (that I can't find the link to).
Awww...I'm worried for you. It's not just about the TO. I get what you're saying about that. It's about the 10s of 1,000s of email searches I've done for IT guys in real companies. After a lot of work you learn to get the feel of what is real and what isn't, what is also in their budgets. Listen .50 a hit times approx 1,200 hits is $600 - that's a lot of cash to burn on a small project. It smells funny. That's all I'm saying
You've received a bonus from Eric DeRosia for work related to 2NAVQ8H88MQU6OADLA3I6RXYN41R80. The value of your bonus is: $1.39 USD The Requester included this note: You did a HIT that was $0 reward because it was in testing. I didn't think anyone would do it! That's normally a $1.39 HIT, so I'm giving you a bonus of $1.39. Thank you for participating! That was very kind. Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!
Hey Awarebrah - even the porn industry doesn't pay that well Title: Select images from a piece of adult content Requester: NetMSi [A2TXMKDL52OV8E] (TO) Description: View images from a piece of adult content and match them with keywords Reward: $0.07 Qualifications: Total approved HITs is not less than 500, HIT approval rate (%) is not less than 95, Adult Content Qualification is 1 Link: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=2VKEWY2AOO2GFR52VP7QXCNCNEG33G [size=-2]Powered by non-amazonian script monkeys [/size]
LoL don't worry I haven't even done a single one. And by the looks of that batch, it will stay that way. Obviously the pay is $.50 a hit because the requester couldn't find the emails themselves. But to me the only thing that smells funny is the almost impossible batch. That is all
I was referring to the one that said, "This is a password-protected HIT for a particular worker." It must have been changed before I checked it originally.
I did 3 earlier and I am not skeered at all. That TO is wack. I didn't do more because it was so hard to find, which is i imagine the only reason they are paying .50 for what other requesters pay .02-.20(the reeaaaallly nice ones) for the same thing.
Oh Sorry, I was talking about the original one I posted a few pages back. I am glad everything got squared out and June got paid for the HIT. Awesome requester!
Batch Title: Write a quick summary of an article Requester: Employment Research Institute Description: Write a 50-100 word abstract for an article Reward: 0.30 Qualifications: HIT approval rate (%) is greater than 90 Link: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/preview?groupId=2ZSQUQIHPCGJVRZYASN51H1LYXU06O You guys think it's worth it?
Well, made $30 for the day bet it would have been double that if I had been home instead of out most the day.
My favorite thing about that HIT is that it doesn't expire until Oct. 19, 2014. Whoever knows the secret of Neptune has lots of time to find it.
I think it should be at least .50 I doubt you can do one in just 3 minutes as you need to read them summarize the article.
