1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    it's really a "sit around and wait" job, but obviously not everybody can do that. picking a time is really a crapshoot, but if you had to actually sit down and choose, the standard work week hours are a good bet. there are always exceptions to that, because there have been plenty of great batches late at night and on the weekends.

    they're few and far between on the weekends, fwiw. if you're just sitting around watching tv or something, it doesn't hurt to keep one eye on your scraper and watchlist, but actively trying to work on the weekends is going to be difficult without closed quals like victoria reznyk and VRAPI

    they post quals every so often, it's not something you can request. i mean, the button is there if you want to push it, but the only way you'll get the qual is if you happen to be around when they have the qualifying batch up. iirc, they just had one recently, so probably not again for awhile.

    The qual was just handed out recently so it won't be for at least a few more months.
