    I know I see them feral cats outside everyday, trying to act all cute, and stuff, to get me to invite them in.

    I ha
    I have that qual. I think they used to be unqualled then gave it to people who had done a bunch of their hits. but I'm not sure. I don't remember actually getting the qual, or getting an email about, or people talking about it. it's kind of like 5's because the work tends to be meh but they can be done if there is nothing good up.

    But what if the story is like 5 paragraphs long? Is it fair to have someone sit and recount numerous times because they think they counted incorrectly half way through? Something like this could increase the time taking to finish it to the point where it could no longer be worth doing. I've done hits like this before, but counting the letters was set up for bonus purposes.
    As for puzzlers, I hope they would include that they want 100% correct responses. But then people would look up the answers so what's the point?
    And now that I think about it, I guess if they wanted 100% accuracy on the counting of letters then people would probably cheat on that too. You could easily copy/paste the story and do a letter count that way.

    Yay! Kiddo's annual vendor fair is over! He did fantastic, and we once again realize there are certain scarves that are more popular and he has to ensure he has lots of stock of those. He sold out on almost all of the really popular types. He made really good money. When I tell people what a teen made at a vendor fair they're like, "holy chit, really?"

    And I made only $5 less than weekly goal last week despite doing hardly anything for three days of that week. Not bad for me, too.

    Agreed, I've done plenty of hits with tough puzzles / math problems, but have never been rejected due to too many wrong answers. I just don't think the rejection is fair for being inaccurate on such a task. Like you mentioned, it will take so much time to double and triple check your work.

    Slightly concerned requester will be shady. They expect you to take around 7 minutes and "watch for times" but it doesn't even come close to that amount of time. Send requester a message about this,

    I was rejected on that survey for same thing. "You did not complete properly task 3 /count letters/"
    Although I thought it stated that you couldn't move forward if you weren't close enough. Requester blocked.

    This past week was like this. I guess that I'll start working again when I get back to my place on Tuesday.

    This survey was terrible. Every single question was a check to see if you are legitimately doing the survey. There is a wall of text on several pages and is severely underpaid for being treated like I'm an incompetent chimp.
