    One HIT.
    My first HIT of the day.
    I can't submit it because of a CAPTCHA
    Then I have to return it because I got an error when I tried to do it again.
    MTurk SUCKS!
    Why have they destroyed their once great platform?

    My next HIT, I submitted and got the error, but luckily I was able to refresh and submit it.
    Hard to believe a company worth 1.5 trillion can't even run this right.

    Is MTurk unusable for anyone else?
    This horrible, worse I've experienced, and I'm sitting on a full queue.

    I have found firefox, with NO extra scripts running will let me work, albeit still a little slow. Makes finding work harder, but batches a little easier. I only get the 503 very rarely.

    I turned off QBC and it still does it, no scripts running.
    I guess this is by design, not sure why they want to destroy their platform.

    I just failed to submit a PickFu. I tried to refresh but all of my text is gone. I'm not typing all that again for pennies. Maybe Amazon will fix it if they hear from their customers.

    I don't think it's browser based as the site seemed to work perfectly normal for me starting around 6-7PM yesterday. No 503s, HITs were loading perfectly, and so were all the areas of the dashboard. So I guess they've just kneecapped MTurk in some way after New Years Day.

    Maybe if they get a lot of calls they'll wake up.
    They need to turn down their DDoS bullshit.
    We're not trying to hack them, just trying to work. Amazing how well the system ran a few years ago when there was actually a lot of work. Now I lose 2 out of 6 HITs I try to submit.
