05/07 - Sunny Sunday!

Adaaaaaam, Adaam, Adaaaaaaaam, that could be your screen name too. All you have to do is add another vowel. Once you add another vowel, you will find yourself on the fast track to the masters qual. Not really though, because let's face it, just like everything else in the Mturkverse, the masters qual was never really meant to benefit workers. That qual was meant to benefit Amazon, and since the benefit they realized from creating that qual has not made them a signifcant profit, they have forgotten about it.

 

I just want captchas removed k thx

 

Agreed. I'm still not very skilled at completing them.

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from Jeff DeWitt for work related to 3SZYX62S5G0G1BXW29BW3LN468D57Q.
The value of your bonus is: $0.70 USD

The Requester included this note:
Our apologies for the delay, we ran into an issue linking up MTurk IDs with our survey software but have finally gotten an uncorrupted copy of your responses to a recent HIT. In that HIT, you and another MTurk worker made a choice between 2 options that determined your bonus payments.

I redacted the info after that just in case it would help people in the future get the bonus or w/e .. basically survey content removed.

 

So you did that vid cam HIT? How was it?

 

It wasn't awful. (even more so on a weekend)

~20-30min (I didn't keep track of the exact time) per a part with 3 hour breaks minimum between parts

 

Today's Projected Earnings: $72.81 + Bonuses: $6.00 = $78.81

The question is, do I do this survey worth 8.50 now, or tomorrow?

 

How alert will you be tomorrow. How engaged will you feel tomorrow. Is there a horseradish based sauce involved?

 

Would you rather have $8.50 now or $10 in 5 years?

 

This is quite possibly my favorite song of all time. Do we forgive Bob for his flat Earth nonsense if we would rather not disuss it?

 

I'll take fifty cents tomorrow. I mean if you're asking

 

Just caught 8 Andy Horowitz...
