    Did anyone else get this reject? This is dumb, right? Why should I be punished because your software is junk? Is there anything to do though?

    Approving Previously Rejected Assignments
    You can approve previously rejected assignments to reverse any rejections you may make by mistake. It is important to make sure that all acceptable work is approved to ensure a good reputation with Workers.

    You can only approve previously rejected assignments that were submitted within the previous 30 days and only if the assignment's related Human Intelligence Task (HIT) has not been disposed.

    To approve previously rejected assignments

    1. On the Mechanical Turk Requester website https://requester.mturk.com/, click the Manage tab and then click Results.

      [​IMG]
    2. Under Manage Batches click the arrow next to Batches already reviewed.

    3. Click Results on the batch you want to approve the previously rejected assignments.

    4. On the Review Results page for the batch that has the rejected assignments you want to approve, click Download CSV. If you have not downloaded a results .csv file before, you can follow the detailed steps described in Downloading and Reviewing Assignments.

      [​IMG]
    5. In the downloaded .csv file, mark an assignment as approved by putting an x in the Approve column and remove the text from the Reject column. In the following example, the assignments with the answers bed, cook, and grass are marked for approval.

      [​IMG]
    6. After you mark the rejected assignments for approval, save the file, and then upload the modified .csv file by clicking Upload CSV from the Review Results page for the batch. If you have not uploaded a modified results .csv file before, you can follow the detailed steps described in Uploading Reviewed Results.

      [​IMG]
    7. You are then asked to confirm your approval choices. Click Yes to confirm the approval of the assignments, which approves the assignments, pays the Workers, and updates the Workers' HITs submitted statistics.

      [​IMG]
      Approving a rejected assignment initiates two payments from your Requester Amazon.com account: one payment to the Worker who submitted the results for the reward amount specified in the HIT and one payment for Amazon Mechanical Turk fees. For the operation to succeed, you must have sufficient funds in your account to pay the Worker and the fees.
    If your HITs were created using the Amazon Mechanical Turk API, you can approve a previously rejected assignment using the ApproveRejectedAssignment operation.

    I use to send it to anyone that rejected me. Turned out most of them just didn't know how to do. They would give me bonuses to make up for the money but leave the rejection. Until I sent this.

    I switched from coffee to B-12 Complex. All the energy without the shakes and crashes. Plus it doesn't affect my sleep cycle... if I had one. I only sleep 3 hours a day anyway.

    No I was saying coffee in large doses gives me the shakes which is why I grab the B-12. Tea is awesome! I'm going to have some chamomile a little later after i'm done murdering these cows.
