    It's not that bad actually. Preferable to some things. Storks for example.

    OK, so what has happened twice now (once yesterday and once today) is that I'll enter my code and then hit submit. Mturk will give me the hit accepted box, but I'll still be on the submission page instead of back to the hit list. So, I'll enter the code again and hit submit again and then it will take me back to the hit list. When I check my dashboard for the day, the hit was submitted twice.

    Yep, at the top of the HIT page, look for a checkbox and make sure it's unchecked. You're actually accepting a second copy of the HIT

    Oh ok. That sucks. I wonder why it's only doing it randomly and not on every hit. What a pain! I guess I'll get two rejections now, which sucks because I don't have any yet.

    If you talk to the requester REAL nicely and explain that it was an accident because Amazon changed the default for that checkbox the other day and you didn't notice, they might be cool about it. Worth a shot anyway.

    @MP AJ

    Going by what I can understand of your workflow you likely aren't using scripts. I suggest doing that...

    Along with the script in that reddit post to revert the dumb change this is a good starting place

    Oh and you most likely are going to get rejects because you submitted shit twice so you will need to get some buffer from easy number hits

    @ChrisTurk's reddit post here has some suggestions



    I'm sure that there are other ones.

    Anyone here have experience with xbox one gaming? I'm trying to help my dad pick out a tv for my little brother since it's memorial day weekend so there's sales. I know how to pick out monitors and all but am lost on what to look for in a good console gaming tv. I'm looking for around 32 inches, he just has the regular xbox one so probably only 1080p is needed. I know he loves fortnite so a decent response time would be nice too.

    On a side note, I feel like an idiot but does anyone have the MAD Labs GID? I accidentally deleted it from my HIT catcher.

    1080p TVs are pretty much a commodity item at this point. You're usually pretty ok with anything you get. Make sure it has some sort of "game mode" feature to turn off their crappy processing which will add lag to gameplay and make movies and tv shows look really weird. I hate 60fps upscaling. We HATES IT.
