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.

    I went down to about 70-80 per week past month. Only doing work from 1 requester that's left. Pretty sure I won't make more than 50 here on out.

    luck of the draw I guess

    honestly probably like 90% of my 1860 were from like 2-3 requesters I could have just as easily not done stuff for if I hadn't been paying attention whatever day I did them

    was just part of the risk of diving into batches for new requesters though, sometimes you made hundreds of dollars sometimes you got mass rejected

    has anyone else noticed that in the last few days, possibly a week since I was lazy both day before and after my birthday that prolific is capping dashboards at 50 hits? Is it just me or is this a thing? I might have to start blocking people I never do so that my lucrative shit shows up faster. I'll do a hit or four and the dashboard remains at 50... thoughts?

    Just realized CT was back and the only reason I hadn't changed my avi in more than forever. @IcyTundra nothing in real life but in my head, Jolene and Rocky Horror soundtrack. Now your putting REM in my head too which I never hate because it lives there more often than not ;)

    I do love that of the only 6 badges you show one is the toilet bowl. I am particularly proud of that.
