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 did do a hard line. When it drops, it's not just the wifi - the online button turns off, and everything (including the stupid X1 Platform) goes down. It was only staying on for about 15 minutes every 3-4 hours. It was working when the tech got here, but he said it failed while he was on his way so he saw the issue. He said I had "loose connections." Tightened a few things, and then it started working for long periods of time but still goes down randomly.

    I have no idea where to say that, honestly.

    Yea, I learned the hard way on that.. since 6 rejections from one batch I only do one or two from a requester before moving forward. I emailed btw, I could go into it but my theory is he/she cannot read their own directions. Because I clearly followed them. The other few were transcription from 2 years ago.. no chance to get those overturned.

    I seriously don't know how you do it. Though, I know I was a bit slower than usual on that one.
