01/12 - Tranquil Tuesday

@ChrisTurk are we not going to be able to have our daily pending earnings on mturk homepage anymore? Yes I know you can find it on Mts but I don't want to have to pull that up each time I want to see where I am at for the day. It was so much easier to just look at the header on the homepage to have that info at a glance. The past version also made it easier to find where I was for the week in earnings and to find hits to check if I did them before or not. I can't find any of that in that in this version. Normally I am more than half way to my daily goal by this time of day and so far I have been messing so much with this new version that I am barely to $15 because I can't figure anything out with this new version so at this point I am turning MTS off and using other hit finders. Let me know if anyone finds out how to get back to the old version.

okay it's mega double worse on the Generous options because it'll just fucking sit there flipping out if you hover over it right at the far edge...

 

I agree! This is too stressful and is now becoming a loss of income, too.

 

The little earnings number on the top left near worker ID? Because I miss that too. It showed up on every HIT page, too and yeah, I know I can look elsewhere, but I'm sometimes obsessive about seeing it. I zipped over to Firefox and turned off auto update for MTS just for that even though I don't use FF very much anymore for Mturk. It's not a huge thing, but has been part of my YAY MORE MONEY obsessive thing for a long time.

 

It's on the list to readd

Wait when you're reviewing? I thought you were talking about the popup with TV info and was so confused.

 

So is it basically confirmed that all these changes happened because TV got sold to the Russians?

 

Nah these guys get all jumpy

When I'm in the middle of reviewing. If I hover over the edge of generous it also starts flipping a tit and shaking a bunch. Every one of those has a pop up when I hover over it and I hate it. WAY Too many hover over boxes that I can't disable after the first read or two.

 

I hate that @ChrisTurk quoted my typos when I edited with the speed of turtle light!

 

So, uninstall it and use panda crazy and forker instead? Or follow the instructions on kada's github I posted a few mins ago. You have the power to get yourself back to work.

 

I would also like the option back to remove a hit from the review listings because I do not wish the review it but I like having a clean list.

 

this is the most plausible reasoning if you really break it down
