I can't load Turk at all right now.

 

i made leaf and sauce and red balls and bread cubes in a bowl

 

No, I thought something wrong too.

 

Does anyone know anything about these HUMACI hits? I don't know the requester but it's an easy hit and I need to boost my acceptance rate.

 

no you didnt

 

I was just kidding @ObsidianSage . I changed my avatar. it hasn't been oscar the grouch in years.

 

oh mturk is loading really slow for me now. but before it wouldn't load at all.

 

now it's doing errors and not loading at all again. is it everybody or in waves? has anyone's mturk sped back up again yet?

 

Mine was bad about 3 hours ago and stayed like that for ~1 hour. Then it was good for a while and about 20 minutes ago crapped out again. Now it's very slow, when it loads, but mostly just "Internal server error".

 

It's pretty slow for me with frequent errors.

 

Thanks for this. I had to leave for awhile, so I didn't know if it had been down all day. I filled out the email form the error page links to.

please post when it works again, you and me and anyone else who sees it working and loading normal speed. I want to turk sometime today if possible lol?

 

Sorry, there was a problem with the requested page
This was unexpected and we are looking into it. Feel free to contact us if this problem persists for you. In the meantime let’s go home and try again.

 

I found this email from mturk or payments or wherever that they sent me yesterday -

I can't verify my bank account on amazon payments because it has an error. when I emailed the email address they sent in the message in the post above, they responded to my email with this. so. there's that.

P.S. I've never sold anything on amazon.

This is an automated email that isn't really a thing anymore, it was probably just sent to you automatically when they fixed your account. You can't hold a balance in your payments account anymore and you can't withdraw it to your bank account. So you don't need to do anything about this, don't need to add any bank account or anything else. Just disregard this and keep using MTurk like normal. MTurk doesn't use Amazon Payments anymore for payouts, it has its own internal system.

Also, why are you in a dumpster and where's the bunny? Bring back the bunny immediately. Or else!
