    If anyone has the LG Rollins HIT with a 3 hour timer
    Answer a survey about attention, emotions, and human relationships and participate in a brief exercise.
    its got an insane amount of bubbles that definitely dont seem worth the time

    There's instructions to get unblocked? Other than email the requester and beg?

    Why would you willingly walk into a situation where you might get blocked?
    If you accumulate "too many" blocks, mTurk does this to your account:

    I'd just chill for now and wait to see if/when someone contacts the requester to see if they are just unaware of the damage it does or something.

    He might mean the more technical stuff of how the requester actually unblocks on their side, like the instructions on how to reverse a rejection

    It is easier if you explain how to unblock to get them to do it

    If you're blocked multiple times in a certain time period that is... I've been blocked it's scary and fun!

    Jeezus like what? That is messed up I got the qual but really don't know if I want to do the work now for a requester like that. Seems like I might lose my :emoji_unicorn: rights if he is just gonna block on qual hits what does he do if he thinks you mess up an actual one.

    @ChrisTurk @Randomacts

    So you are saying I should send a message and ask to be unblocked? And if he replies, give him the location to unblock me?

    I unicorned the hell out of that qual hit.

    There is always a chance a no-TO requester rejects or blocks for quals. That one didn't feel worth it. Watch your unicorny butt out there!

    Yes. Send him a message. If you collect too many blocks in a period of time, Amazon suspends your account.

    I managed to catch a queue full of the close qual tax hits while I was out, and completed them just in time to go the airport. I'm on my way home, happy turking all. (I have a 10 hour layover in dublin and they have free wifi so I'll see you all then lol)

    Anyone got a pre-written message to send from when you get a block?

    Send an email politely explaining the problem that blocks can cause workers and ask him to reverse it. You could even suggest that he use a qualification to exclude workers if he doesn't want them working on his hits. I would include the link in that email.
