    They go quicker at peak hours. So the end of the batch is usually around after work time EST

    One of them said I put in the wrong survey code, which, idk. My bad; I assume the copy function failed to actually copy and I put in a previous one. So I'll own that one.

    The second one I got permission to submit early and then complete the task, which I did, and it got rejected. Currently barreling through red tape and newbie requester hell to get it approved. They're not malicious, just inexperienced.

    Still feeling pretty #CrappyTurker :emoji_sweat_smile: :(

    That blows. I had the same thing happen supposedly with a wrong code, and I asked them if I could make it up and gave them some sob story about how rejections affect turkers, and they reversed it. Give it another go maybe?

    Good luck~

    I emailed them & gave them specific details about the survey proving I did it/apologizing and basically saying I wasn't trying to scam them. No response yet.

    Haven't seen @ChrisTurk in a while... I heard he gave up on the forum and sold it to some homeless guy who's changing the name to HubGrinder or something...
