    Yea I'm thinking of just doing that. Also completed at least 5 hits that had super short time limits that I couldn't submit and I've messaged those requesters as well with no response.

    Don't risk submitting early like that until you have buffer to eat the rejects.

    Normally it is fine, except when it isn't.

    The only people who have ever gotten rich off workers being left in the dark to fend for themselves were Requesters.

    You'd think this is true, but I'd contend most people if given a choice wont normally scam.

    But if its between providing that batch of 50c HITs sitting up good quality and paying rent, most folks will put a roof over their head.

    You feed those folks & maybe they don't scam that batch, leaving more for you to do legitimately.

    Maybe. Idk. You end up in the UBI debate going down that thought road but I personally believe its a net good for everyone on mTurk to do well enough.

    It's Damon's first leading roll, I think. He's a lawyer suing a health insurance company and that was their business model. Just made me think about it when mentioned keeping workers in the dark.
