Today I learned that you can reduce the minutes/hours on your current sleep timer in QBC by clicking this little doodad.

 

Ouch. Rest up. It's been slow so you have not missed much.

Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from Jake Teeny for work related to 3HUR21WDDU0XPH0ZYMOR9NQCGFVXYM.
The value of your bonus is: $0.30 USD

The Requester included this note:
Hello,

Earlier today, you participated in a study where you could win bonus money for a charity you chose based on you correctly predicting the valuation of stocks. In addition to helping out that charity, we wanted to send a bonus to you, too. In which case, here is an additional 30% of your base pay for the study.

Thank you for your assistance in this research. We hope you have a good day!

It's not much but it's always nice to get something unexpected

 

Please no more parkouring!

 

Anyone else waiting to do the William Berger HIT?

I had a feeling previously that might be it. The consensus on many posts I've seen in different forums is that workers who've been blocked have purposely done something to deserve it. So, that's just really upsetting.

Thinking about it now, the only thing I can think of is, the "How do you feel about how Trump is doing?" (paraphrasing that) group of questions got stuck in repeated hits for me for many months last year. I answered with my feelings the same way repeatedly until I got frustrated with the the same questions being there and changed my answers hoping it would take that group of questions off my hits. Then it switched to new questions for the first time soon after.

I had no idea that was even Turkprime/CloudWhatever back then. I thought it was just some script different requesters weren't being mindful of updating in their hits.

Which sucks, but that's the only thing I can think of. So don't do what I did y'all.

 

Just got the email to join!

 

These AI conversation HITs of more than one requester are making my brain slowly ooze out of my ear.

I don't speak robot!

Yikes. What if someone had a genuine change of opinion on a question of that sort?

 

Sleep timer
Feel like 'splaining more about this? Seems like something I'd f- up in five minutes.

 

At least for those who did not have CR #1, there have been reports of people emailing with some degree of success. Perhaps you can try to plead your case to get it removed.

 

Basically it's a feature in QBC that allows you to suspend accepting hits during the duration of the timer that would expire before the timer ends. It will still collect hits to Panda I'm pretty sure once the timer is off, and it'll accept hits that will still have enough time for completion after the timer expires i.e. hits with 6-48+ hour timers.

Whether you want to leave it on while you go out for food, sleep, work, etc.
