    The messages are different. One will say that you answered too many wrong and you're locked out until the next batch posts. The other says that there are no more available at this time. Sometimes if you get the no more available message you can refresh the page a few minutes later and get some more.

    I was actually just about to ask about this. I caught a bunch earlier but kept getting no more available messages so I returned them and figured if it was a cap it would have been a weird one. I haven't done pins in a few days now.

    I hope everyone had a good Christmas! I had an amazing one between spending time with my family and my girlfriend's family. Out of the mass of stuff I got, the top present has been Google Home. I've had tons of fun giving it commands and figuring out its capabilities.

    My favorite command? "Hey Google, send feedback" lets you record a message that it sends to Google as feedback. It's like having a direct link to Google.
    "Hey Google, send feedback."
    "Sure, what do you want to say?"
    "Tell Sergey Schmidt to post more batches to Amazon Mechanical Turk. Also, we miss Virals."
    "Okay, thanks for helping us improve!"

    Pins have a weird system. There's a mismatch between the number of tasks that they have to do and the number of hits that they post. You can catch a hit when there are no tasks to do, which is what the cap message is. If you want to get a lot of pins you have to get on them early, but you can sometimes catch a few more after getting the cap message.

    I wish they didn't have such a short timer. If they had a 60 min timer I could hoard a whole queuefull at a time (like with Z's) and not have to worry about finishing them in time.

    That analogy would only work if there wasn't a link to the video.

    I mean for a survey hit they're collecting data. So if there's no link obviously you aren't giving them data. If someone has a list of video urls and wants the topic of each video, knowing a url is bad is useful information. If that's not the case then why would the requester include that as an option?

    Even if you hoard them, the ones you have can basically die on you before expiring if everyone else does theirs quicker. Think of the HIT as a placeholder in line. If they run out of tasks, your place in line becomes worthless.

    alright, then a better analogy would be the survey link needing a password to enter the survey. the video link asked you to log in with an authorized name/password. it didn't lead to a page with a broken video, you just weren't given the authorization. to me, that says "better return this, it's not for me to do because i do not have the login information."

    Glad I'm not the only one dealing with car crap.. I don't even know if my car is safe to drive to a mechanic to get fixed LOL, it sat in a garage for a year+ and now when I turn it on it sounds like absolute death. Been stuck for weeks trying to figure out what to actually do with it -,-

    Any car folks wanna diagnose a Jeep by sound/video alone? :lol:

    Is the gasoline still good at that point?

    I can try to help some. I've never had a Jeep but I know a thing or two or three about cars/engines.

    I've had a lot of luck getting diagnosisesesises on my car's subreddit. Those people are generally hardcore fanatics and quite knowledgeable.
