I want the hits to flood in... FLOOD IN LIKE SO MUCH GRAVY!

Am this easy, for sooth?!

 

Been wondering that myself. Still pending from 9/24. Makes me nervous.

 

you'll never get back to 100. even if you show 100 it's not 100 and you'll not be able to do the extremely rare hit that requires 100%

I don't know if it is the best idea or not, but whenever I am in doubt, I always just email the requester. They are people, and more often than not they forgive and approve.

Oh I'll agree with that. What I think works best for batch work is a one-and-done initial qual, and then a score that reflects the level of the completed work. Go below the score, and you disqualify yourself. Do good work, it raises the score.

UserBob does this, you can start with 1-minute work after the initial qual, if they see quality they raise your score up for the multi-minute better paying ones.

Ok thanks. I've been waiting since 9/28. No need to be nervous, it has 30 day aa.

 

Hey y'all! I know I'm late, but it's a holiday and I'm not at work, so my schedule is wonky. Regardless, I still managed to get a little time to get the hit up! Protip: The song on the preview page is pretty awesome, click the link on the page to listen to it or just let it play in another window. I heard it this weekend and loved it!

Qual info (and some other info) is reitorated in the spoiler. I REPEAT! IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE QUAL, CLICK THE SPOILER BUTTON TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET IT!. If you already read the spoiler last time, this one's the same.

Spoiler

I got some AMAZING feedback from everyone, thank you so much. I've already made some changes due to it, and I'm hoping to further refine with feedback I get throughout the month.

Eligibility

I decided to go with the same eligibility scheme. You can only win every other hit. Meaning that if you win, you will be ineligible to accept the next hit, but you will be able to accept the one after that. That's the best way to balance fairness with availability and number of hits.

Structure

I took some people's (unexpected) advice and dropped the pay in favor of having more hits available. There will be 150 hits at $0.05 each, for a total of $10.50 per hit, and $94.50 for the month excluding halloween. Halloween will be its own hit. I'd like to release 150 of those as well, with pay determined by how much I have left over and in the donation pot. Right now it's looking like it'll be around $0.17 each, though that may go up if additional people donate and/or if I get any more money to throw into it. For reference, $0.10/hit is $21, $0.25/hit is $52.50, and $0.50/hit is $105. Right now I have around $40, so if you want to increase the pot for everyone, look below for the URL.

Frequency

I'm going to be posting on Monday and Thursday, within the 12:00PM EST hour. People seemed to be the most active this time, and that was the two times I got most reported as "available" without complaints on my survey. This was the only "surprise" hit, hopefully it was still fun!

Reitorated information

The qual can be requested at https://www.mturk.com/mturk/requestqualification?qualificationId=37O6I4CP4ADSVOT2B526P9T1IYF66V using the password 37O6I4CP4ADSVOT2B526P9T1IYF66VDV Just enter that string into the box and submit. You will be auto-approved within two minutes.

If you wish to donate to increase the Halloween pot (thank you to those who have!) you may do so at https://www.paypal.me/mturkTj any amount put into there will be added to the pot on 10/31. I also accept cryptocurrency, though I'm having issues accessing that so if you HAVE sent me any crypto (or wish to), PM me and let me know (transaction ID would be helpful if you have it) so that I can figure out what to do with it and/or send you the wallet addresses.

Happy Halloween everyone!

 

Thanks all for words of wisdom. I'm sure when I get my laptop, I'll ask for advice for best turk downloads (PC, OW/HF, etc).

 

If you like transcribing HITs.

Although there are plenty of other transcribing batches around, so it's pretty subjective if you really need it or not.
