It definitely was. I figured it was slow today, so why not? I did notice there was a progress bar all the way at the bottom.
Made wifey take our son to go play at the mall so I could get some cleaning done. Just got a snapchat of them at the arcade. The little 15-month-old wanted to press a button and they ended up winning 1500 tickets from it. Lucky little baby.
It took me a solid hour to get through it all. Now my brain hurts. I need some Ben Peterson hits to recover.

I seem to be getting rejected more here lately. I've got one reject a week for the last 6 weeks, which is unusual for me. I'm lucky I have a half million hits, so it doesn't really move me much.
Is it because you are accepting work that you normally wouldn't because things are slower during the holidays? I see a lot of questionable requesters out there.
Nothing really sketchy, in my opinion. I usually know when I'm pushing it. For instance one of them was a maze hit and if you have ever done those you know they give you that long complicated code, and I cut copy pasted it and they said I got it wrong and they would reverse it, but it has not happened yet. The other one was for failing a four cent qualification hit.
