Good bonus potential for amount of time it takes. $1.15 for finishing then 4 cents per correct trial

Are you going to buy one of of those mini blow torches for your creme brulee?

 

I had forgotten setting the food on fire is an option. I was going to do the whole double boiler thing instead.

Pros: None. They added a ton more sections and 3-5 minutes of additional bubbles to previous iterations.

The screener is now at the back of the survey, and after 20 pages of things, told me I wasn't eligible. I submitted anyways to review it, and emailed requester.

Cons:
-Personal questions
-Asks for Birthday
-Pages and pages of bubbles
-Repetitive
-Attention Checks
-Much worse paid than previously

that's how we always did it (the blow torch thingy) at the place I used to work at. I was a server but a couple times the pastry chef either trusted me or was super stoned and let me do it!!! super fun and we didn't burn the place down

 

I got the "There's nothing here, yet. Build something amazing." screen when I tried to do this hit


If this doesn't magically start working, I'm returning it in 10 minutes.

 

Oh that stinks I noticed there are two different pandas for the hit, so maybe you can still catch the other one.

When my panda caught it earlier today, MTS read the requester's name out loud. It said "Text Vision Turk This is Facebook and also Noah Turk."

I left a note to myself about them in the requester name field of MTS when I did a hit of theirs in the far past. It says Facebook in the Informed Consent, but I don't remember how I figured it was Noah Turk (allegedly), too.

So, if it's another Noah Turk account that would explain the dreaded purple page with "There's nothing here..." stuff.

 

Yeah, I just checked and it looks like they posted two of those hits on 10/13



The one that's still active is unfortunately the one I just accepted. This hit was posted a few times before, so maybe I'll catch it another day.

I'll keep that Noah Turk thing in mind though. Thanks for sharing. Hopefully I don't get that same screen again
