    Quick question. Can a requester reverse approvals after a hit is approved? I don't expect it will be a problem, but I've been working on this batch that's been approving almost as fast as I'm doing them and I got up to 200 or so and now I've started worrying about doing more.

    Nope, an approval is final.

    Thanks! Well I guess I better get back to work. The requester is Julia Brown btw, there's a short qualification test, but after that the hits are really quick and pay 0.08.

    What is your hourly? Perhaps they may be borderline for 'numbers' but those look pretty bad.

    Overview
    This task is a survey of your experiences with abandonment in crowdsourcing. ABANDONMENT is the process of opening a task, previewing it or progressing in it before leaving it without completion (returning a HIT or closing the tab).

    tl;dr what I almost did with this hit.

    Not sure I hadn't thought too much about it. I've just been doing them while I fill my que with other stuff. They take about 8-10 seconds most of the time. Every now again a 15 if I have to check the surrounding lyrics. It's probably a little low, but it's been great for filler. They don't seem to be running out.

    "Approval and Payment
    Workers submit responses for assignments. If you approve their work, Mechanical Turk transfers the HIT reward from your Mechanical Turk account to their Amazon Payments accounts. Workers don't get paid if you reject their work.

    When you post a batch of HITs, you agree to approve or reject work by a specified deadline. If that deadline passes, Mechanical Turk approves the assignments and pays the Workers who submitted work." (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSMechTurk/latest/RequesterUI/mechanical-turk-concepts.html)

    The requester can set the automatic approval time for as 0 seconds-30 days as far as I know. You can also manually approve batches early.A decent amount of requesters who do batch work actually watch the batch as it is being completed, to sort the data, monitor quality, or a number of other reasons.
