    Hope so, I can't seem to catch any 1.12s on PC even when that's all I have running. Not sure what the issue I'm having is.

    Mine hasn't done shit for awhile either. I have to panda each individually which is so not worth it.

    they are slower than regular pandas, on a slow day like this, people may be pandaing them individually, which is going to result in your PC not seeing them in a lot of cases.

    Hello turkers,

    I have a question, is there a secret mturk where requesters can hide hits from the general public?

    There's a requester option to hide a hit if the user isnt qualified for it.

    Depending on your question's purpose, the answer is that requesters can

    a)Hide hits so only those qual'd can see them (all age, gender, etc. quals default to this) or
    b)Play in the sandbox like a good human and not post hits that say "TESTING PLS DON'T SUBMIT"

    for those that dont know about it, i'd suggest checking out @gofooji on twitter. literally all it does is partner with movie studios and tv shows to send you free food for tweeting at them. the other day i got free chicken wings, its amazing.

    Do you know what I really hate about surveys? The percentage of them that seem to be custom-made to 'put words in my mouth'.
    Why am I so often obligated to rank 'groups' or whatever from 'like most' to 'like least' without the option to say "They're all the same
    to me!" Am I missing something, or does this now give them the right to report "75% of people like Bob prefer X to Y!" Granted, I'm
    kind of neurotic to begin with, but this thought just drives me absolutely nuts. I no longer have any faith in 'official' statistics.

    there aren't many that make you really rank like that but if they do you can always comment either at the end of the survey if it is allowed, or message the requester and tell them how you really feel. Most I see are like sliders and I tend to slide them all around the same give or take (aside from things like politics)

    Interesting... I ask this because I am trying to figure out how this mturk game works and if “playing by the rules” is getting me closer to making some serious money. For example, I saw someone over at mturk crowd make on average $1200 - $1400 a week on mturk. WTF?? Doing batches get you that? I troll qualified and unqualified hits day and night and just don’t see it. Which is exactly what I thought to myself....(I will never see it) because Amazon added that feature to whooo new requesters into joining there platform. Thank you guys for chiming in and letting me know what’s up because I have admired everyone on this forum and bringing in $400 and more a week gave me motivation....until I read some shit online that had me thinking...much love y’all

    Yeah thats a brutally high end number. Very few people turk 7 days a week and much less can make 200 a day. I would be extremely skeptical of that. I do 45-60 a day on surveys. You'll see others on this forum do around 100 a day with batches.
