    Yeah similar here, I usually cycle my heat on once or twice per day but might have to leave it running.

    They haven't given out Masters for years, but MTurk charges requesters more money to have access to this group. I guess they see no reason to tell requesters they could get the equivalent of Master workers with a 99% approval and over @ 50,000 hits.

    At this point I'm pretty sure the only thing that's being actively monitored / worked on is their new "Experts" program (or whatever it's called) where they manually message on LinkedIn and invite people with advanced degrees in various fields to join MTurk through a special link that gives them access to the hidden "Experts" section of MTurk and allows them to do [highly lucrative I might add] HITs in their respective field of knowledge. I'm convinced they don't give two shits about any other part of MTurk and unless a miracle happens, I would bet this delicious protein shake I'm currently drinking that we won't see them give out Masters again or really do much of anything at all about the platform. And honestly, the last time they tried to do something they broke the entire platform for like an entire day or two, and then a sizable percentage of MTurkers started getting their accounts nuked for no reason, so maybe it's a good thing they don't touch anything anymore. :emoji_laughing:

    Actually I wouldn't be surprised if they were implementing that "Experts" thing and that's how they broke stuff back in September. IIRC, I first started seeing people talk about the Experts program right around that time, maybe right after. I can totally see them fuck shit up while trying to add an entire new section to MTurk and create some kind of special invite links that go through a different verification system and auto-grant a bunch of special quals. :emoji_thinking:

    Yes and it will invite you to 2nd part tomorrow

    Only note the actual password the form asks for is in the original MTURK task window, not the one they give you on the form.

    it's not like there's any shortage of people doing masters hits when they do pop up even to this day with how long it's been since they handed it out

    if there was anything more than a trickle of work on the platform i'm sure they'd probably suddenly start handing it out again but even with masters that's very much not the case

    sucks for those that don't have it just because they didn't get it like a decade ago or whatever though, having it does make the platform feel ever so slightly less dead
