    I'll have you know I'm drinking tequila tonight instead of wine to save calories. Also, I have a small piece of glass stuck in my foot.

    God it was long and boring.
    Semi passive... you just have to mash your keyboard and look every few seconds to have a piece of info.
    The questionnaire before the "game" is way way way too long.

    So what's up with some survey hits with bad links like
    Code:
    http://https://whatever.qualtrics.com...
    and that obviously doesn't work so you take off the http:// and you have
    Code:
    https://whatever.qualtrics.com...
    But then it still doesn't work because (strangely) something's amiss with the https://
    ... it may look to be correct but, when you get one of these bad links,
    the https:// doesn't work. That's odd. [​IMG] What weirdness produces these broken links? [​IMG]

    Easy enough (as most of you surely know), just delete and retype the https:// part and then it works.

    So, no problem for us, just a small inconvenience ...
    although these broken links do throw off some newcomers who don't realize it's easy to fix.

    Wow, just got booted out of the hit by Vikalpa Research. 12 minutes in and I received this message:

    Sorry!

    Our research requires a certain high level of accuracy. Either you weren't paying attention or aren't fluent enough in English for our needs. The survey will end now to save your time - you can close this window and abandon this HIT. You won't get paid, but you will not receive a rejection.

    Thank you for your time.

    Lol, I'm very fluent in English but many of the words they wanted definitions for, I had never heard of. In that case, you are told in the instructions to mark "I don't know." At least one third to one half are not commonly used at all and I would only expect to see in 100-year-old books.

    I probably should try that hit. I like old words. They've become almost a hobby for me. I've been spending some of my spare time compiling a personal glossary of obscure and obsolete words.

    Well, good luck. Some were not spelled correctly and may have been attention checks, I don't know. Should have just looked them up instead laugh out loud. Croothly? Weir? Augured? I maintained a 15/20 so I guess they're looking for near-perfection.

    I retook the survey using incog and passed using the same answers. What the hell?
