09/25 - Tic Tac Tuesday

I got it to work finally and completed the hit! Thanks!

 

Yes and no. I received an email from him yesterday that basically is the exact opposite of the one I got near the beginning. I think they are changing how they want the task performed and just kind of coming down a little hard on some people.

Also, does anyone know what the fuck the star rating actually means or is for?

 

Hm, interesting, thanks for saying this. I've experienced the same - I had absolutely glowing feedback at first, and it recently took a sudden turn to "that's not what I'm looking for." I've had a rough couple weeks so I honestly blamed myself, thinking I just wasn't on my game and maybe started overthinking them. I haven't done them recently because of other work, but also because I felt like I was doing something wrong and I didn't want to screw up his data. Even with his feedback, taking hints from his new video, and brushing up on the hall of fame, I can't seem to hit that sweet spot he's looking for anymore. I've tried to use those exact types of questions when applicable (obviously fitting the scene), along with using my old tried-and-true questions, and I guess they're not as good anymore? Maybe he's looking for more advanced Q&A, or just a narrower scope, now that we're further into it or something.

 

Thank you. I feel like I got jumped for asking an honest question. And the star system is for some future to be determined......

 

Nope. I did some few days ago just to get it and I still have no idea.

Regardless, too many folks doing that HIT now time to move on. IMO

 

-mod edit- you could always just email him or w/e to clear it up as he seems to actually care about communicating with his workers.

When he started it, he mentioned in the bonus email that if you have a high enough star rating, he might consider letting those workers have faster AA times.

 

I had put them aside as well. Did 2 as a tester again, and I was really feeling that the wants of the requester shifted somewhere.

I have. I haven't received a response yet. I know I will eventually, and hopefully it will be more concrete than the last feedback I received.

 

He reads the forum a lot and it might help for him to read the exact dialogue we're having together as workers to make sure it's not a one-off issue.

 

tagged him.

 

It prob helps to tag him if you are trying to do that but yeah.

 

He already was tagged

 

Well tag him harder damit.

 

Wow, no one trying to offend. I was actually wondering if others had a similar experience while completing these. So my fault they responded I guess. But thought the forum to be the perfect place to talk about it with one another.

@TurkedOut has just learned my tried and true VRAPI method

 

Interesting. Well I got a 4/5 for Stars. No idea if that is good or not. I assume yes but who knows.
