    You may be worth more that much or more but not while alive.

    I'll get my grinder.

    It's almost like hundreds of millions of people watch them play and throw money at them.

    My stupid question of the day - what's the difference between a hard block and soft block? I had assumed that a soft block just meant using quals to exclude workers, but I may be way off. I've seen on here that hard blocks can cause your account to be suspended, so I want to make sure I understand.

    I saw folks were talking about Jon Atwell today, but he hadn't shown up in my scraper so I made sure I still have the qual. I do since have it, but when I added the hit to PC it turned purple, so I guess I'm blocked (is there any more efficient way to tell?). I'm wondering if it's just a way to exclude repeat takers in a certain time frame, or if it's a hard block that I should be concerned about.

    You have made it to the halfway point!
    Have a little break and watch this short video (2m 42s) before completing the other half of the experiment

    There's more than one Jon Atwell group, you probably just weren't qualled for any of the ones that posted today. As for blocks causing your account to be suspended, no one really knows for sure, but a requester blocking you leads to your account being investigated by Amazon or something so the less you have, the better.

    There's a lot of people making lots of money doing dumber things, I say let them have it. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to be good at sports ball, and a lot of them also support charities and their local communities or whatever.

    Thanks for responding! I won't stress to hard about a block or two then.
    I checked the quals - I've got New Pool 96, and 96 had posted today. Unless you're talking about something else?

    The conundrum here is that if they were paid less, people would grinch about owners/leagues/networks hoarding too much money.

    Same with actors.

    I don't know. I see it as they have a talent. They have every right to cash in on that talent. Do I think it's stupid? Eh...kinda, but not my business.
