Substitute teacher, iirc. (There'd better be a special place in the afterlife for those who occupy that job. )

Thanks for thinking of me ... But I think I did this a while back, Hdb says November 13th and it offered a $2 bonus.

Sonofabitch.

My damn cat just submitted a HIT for a survey I didn't take.

 

I just posted the first post of today on MTG, I could not make it great again

 

Does anyone here have access to the Daemo platform? I don't want folks to break an NDA or anything if there is one, but I have some questions if you wouldn't mind PM'ing me.

They posted this to reddit. Its worth a read, but I'm suspicious how it solves any of the actual problems w/ mTurk as a standalone platform.. Seems more concerned with how people act on SM surrounding the platform than the actual function of it?

 

Just messaged the requester. I'm not too concerned if they reject it though... I had just gotten back to 100% acceptance lol

 

@Kadauchi Does HF run on mturk.com or worker.mturk?

 

I doubt it solves anything.

Both.

 

Well that is pretty shitty of them.

 

WOOT!!!!!!!!!! Second Blood Army 14 Navy 0

GO ARMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

It certainly makes the whole 'constitution of good feelingness' a little ironic to read, lol.

I'm just of the opinion that I couldn't give two shits less how other people act as long as money exchanges hands at a sufficient rate. It'd certainly be nice to work in a friendly atmosphere, but if I'm picking things I want fixed about mTurk that particular section is probably dead last on the list . TO is an abused wasteland because of their flagging option.. I don't see how implementing that into mTurk is anything but pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking :/ (but I can't see how it functions since the platform is closed, hence my curiosity, whoops)

 

Got invited, registered late, and did $19.00 worth of work for them. Never got paid. I think they're just trying to get the middleman out of the picture (Amazon), and introduce a brand new platform for academics and companies.

TO is hilariously bad. The only things that matter are, did I get paid, did I get paid well for my time spent. Requester can be the biggest ash hole in the world, I don't care as long as I get my money lol.

So it will be like Prolific essentially.

 

Prolific pays. Daemo, and the folks who operate the platform, just want free work, I'm guessing.

Edit: People did get paid, but like @Tripsa said, for some reason they allowed those who never received invitations to register.
