Ah, send me some!

 

Right after this comment they exported every survey that's paid already! Panda some of those!

 

I started turking again this summer after a year of no turking and got CR1 in August and never completed the Study Lab survey so there is a way to get it without competing it but I have no clue what I did to get it.

 

I just went to a hit that required it (with the "I am qualified for" filter turned off) and hit Request Qualification.

 

Just like you, I have CR1 and never did that survey, so it comes from other places too, I just don't know what.

@turker You look very adorable today . Love the new profile pic!

 

I started back up on 7/11 and received CR1 on 7/27 and didn't do any Survey Comet or Study Lab HITs during that couple weeks but I most likely completed one at some point when I turked for a little in 2020.

We'll probably never know for sure, since CR is very opaque about how they assign and manage the CR #1 qual, but...
@YarnAndCats

Studylab also ran a differently-titled hit, Was one of the very first ones I did last year, and I returned right around the same time as you

(they ran it again as recently as Feb. 8th this year.)

Health Behavior and Marketing Study(~ 10 minutes)

Because of the Demographics and exact same writing as their qual hit, it's been theorized on reddit that this also worked for getting the CR#1.

Some people have also theorized that the demographic questions on the frame near the submission box on surveys were also used.

Edit:

Short Questionnaire (~ 4 minutes)
3ACJON8MIPQ6IV01T9NKZH6NIYREA6 $0.75 3
is the one I had the kids grandma do. She didn't do anything else, no other surveys, no end of survey demos, no other hits in years except this, got CR#1 in January.

Here's the full post with screenshots when I experimented on it over the holidays:
https://forum.turkerview.com/threads/01-07-frigid-friday.4282/page-20#post-1959258

 

I completed that one on 8/31 a month after receiving the qual and that was the first one I completed by them after returning.

 

Do you answer the mini-surveys on the HIT submission pages? I've heard quite a bit of people mention that as some sort of way to get CR#1. Also answering them with consistent answers instead of randomly. Whatever the case is, I believe you can still "earn" CR#1 over time. I was talking with someone on reddit a few weeks ago about it and they said they actually had CR#2 and eventually they got #1. So I'm sure you can get it eventually, dunno how exactly, but don't give up.

 

To further add to the CR#1 mystery... I wasn't catching shit on Friday.. look and see that CR#1 is no longer in my quals.. it was in pending quals... freak out a little and try to work anyway.. make no money.. ignore it Saturday cause that was my bday and not gonna stress about mturk on that day... check on Sunday and it's there again... soooo no idea how/why/what but i lost and got it back this past week.. and i haven't had a rejection in forever and nothing weird with any surveys..

 

Happy late birthday
