    Script was great when we had the Turkerhub hits to use, ever since amazon ripped those down I havent found a hit that is consistently up enough to use for it so I uninstalled it.

    Paying $0.50 to make a $1. Some people think they can... might work, but it is a contest, so they might blow $100 and walk away with nothing.

    Probably better odds than the slots in the casinos, at least.

    Less flashy lights and sounds, though.

    I wrote her and told her there are quals she can use instead and that we hope she is not actually blocking people and why...

    New SNIPS up. Kinda like the ACMEs where you record yourself.

    2 minutes, 60 cents.

    //live update didn't see that//

    Am I missing something?

    "block past workers" looks like the name of a qual, to me...

    Not sure if that was block workers or just block them from doing this hit...

    Considering that the qual name has a specific date identifier in it (Sept 30, 2017), I'd venture a guess that it's just for this HIT.

    Ho, hum, nothing to see here is what I think.

    Chalk it up to a knee-jerk reaction to the word "Block" on mTurk.
