03/02 - Throwdown Thursday!

ooo look at you all fancy

 

I thought I heard people saying some were getting approved already, but maybe that was another A9 batch.

 

He made the mistake of telling me his birthday, so it was my duty to alert the masses.

 

I have never gotten a rejection from them

 

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from Dani Bassett Lab for work related to 3VZYA8PITPZVM2J6XFTKPFHIJUB50X.

The Requester included this note:
Bonus for performance on Bassett Lab HIT 3VZYA8PITPZVM2J6XFTKPFHIJUB50X

Thanks for being a Worker on Mechanical Turk!

 

That's well earned bonus. I found it rather tedious.

 

So ya gonna give up just like that, for a dolla and an email? SMH

 

They have approved a few dozen random ones for me over the last couple of days. I'm hoping they are just spot checking, then they'll open the floodgates soon.

 

very tedious

 

I agree. I stopped. I think my tolerance for internet "aggressiveness" may be too high.

Yeah, after seeing the rejections on TO, I got worried that they are "Gotch'a" questions, and was unsure which direction to go.
