    I've got a "ROKU" smart tv and have never played with the smart tv feature on it. Scared to even try to do this hit! LOL ...

    Welcome! Just do your best and you won't get a rejection. Worst case scenario you get a block but mistakes here and there are fine :emoji_sunglasses:

    That was the rumor, but Louisiana didn't get added when they started charging us tax so I question the validity of that theory...

    I think they charge everyone taxes now, if I remember correctly. They might just not have changed the location requirement when everything changed. I'm in Utah and can't do them either.

    No, it's absolutely about the sales tax, but MTurk isn't exactly a priority for Amazon. They change it when they change it. I remember Ohio residents being well past their tax collection time, many months, and they still weren't added until I think sometime in the middle of last year. So just because they started collecting in your state doesn't mean much in terms of being able to do A9s and other Amazon requesters, but it is the reason for the exclusions. @MatchBox11 same for you as Utah is a new tax collecting state. And there are still states that don't collect. One day, they'll suddenly be available, but don't expect it too soon.

    I think out of 10k plus hits I've gotten 1 A9 rejection. Which 'welcome' gif sealed the deal for you and made you REALLY wanna create an account?

    Some of those gifs may have been why I stayed in the closet! Ha! :emoji_stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I've just started Turking again after a long break and have been noticing more posts that I had something in common with. Figured today was a good day to join. :)

    That's the worst. Who thought that a good idea? I feel like they do that for sport to amuse themselves because I've never met anyone who likes them.

    just give yourself a 3 or 4 (if scale on 1-5) on everything and make up some bullshit about how awesome you are but could always improve

    The smaller batch has a 1 day AA, I have never seen them with a 20 day AA until now.
