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.

    Like all VRAPI batches they're good at the start, and you can still cherry pick them for an hour or two after the first round of returns b/c frankly VRAPI has some workers who just suck, but in order to do that you have to not suck.. so kind of a catch-22 type batch.

    They don't show up often, so they aren't worth putting in your unpaid hours to learn though

    You couldn't even find the address. I had the address right every time I've attempted it, but I made a typo.

    it sucks they are that strict. it seems like they just want to forward the data without even checking it themselves or something? like they wouldnt catch that during a double checking process anyways before they submit this data. seems strict and lazy.

    I guarantee you I've trained more workers for them than any of their employees have.
