11/28 Totally Turktacular Tuesday

They're a great and super easy little filler, my only real complaint is that they never drop in batches big enough for me. I actually enjoy doing them but they go so fast.

I must have had 15 "no code" hits yesterday. I made sure to mail each of them. I only got two replies but they were pretty different.


First:

You'll get paid

Thanks for writing to me. This was actually due to a major flaw in the survey design and not anything you did wrong. You were the one of the few participants who took the trouble to contact me about it; thank you very much for doing that! I’ve logged in to fix it now.
This was my mistake and I’ll be paying all of the people who took the flawed survey. But because you were considerate to let me know about the glitch, I’ve been able to fix it before too much damage was done. I cannot thank you enough for that!

Have a wonderful day!

Regards
Patrick

 

If I don't get 50 more hits today i'm making sure everyone in the world gets coal for Christmas

 

You've got it!

 

My rage knows no bounds
You get some coal, and you get some coal, and you get some coal

Also FYI, later today we're publishing a new EPL 2017 qual hit. If you already have a qual to work our EPL hits, you don't need this one, but you're welcome to take it if you like. It won't endanger your existing qual.

Basically, it's been 4 or 5 months since we did quals for EPL, and we just want to refresh them if there are newer turkers who are interested in English Premier League soccer.
