Greetings from Amazon Mechanical Turk,

You've received a bonus from Res.Park for work related to 3IHWR4LC8M1HZ9R2S2XMHSTO5BB8IF.
The value of your bonus is: $2.00 USD

The Requester included this note:
Thank you for participating in our project! We will soon open projects regarding perceptual knowledge - Creating QA, Validating QA
We will ask you to join our future work! Thank you


...But I don't even remember doing this?.... otay... now I gotta figure out how to look up completed hits by ID ..lol

 

Why can't the requester just send you a bonus directly using your workers ID like the same way normal requesters send bonuses? You've already submitted a hit to them, right? If so, they should be able to just bonus you directly without any compensation hit needed. We receive bonuses all the time, and rarely need compensation hits to receive them. Unless, I'm not understanding or missing something here....

Why can't they just send you a bonus using this procedure:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSMechTurk/latest/RequesterUI/GivingaBonus.html

 

I didn't get to submit the hit, it timed out but I still completed the study. They are going to bonus it after I submit this one.

 

Don't you go trying to add logic to this! That's not how this works

 

Sorry, I didn't know that you were unable to submit the hit. Now it makes sense. Good luck! I hope you get paid soon!

 

Boy if its one of them cheap bastards.. good luck. Ain't nobody tryna create no HIT to pay you That costs them there schmekles. If enough people have the issue.. they might do one of them emailed code HITs.

 

Spoiler: Unnecessary Star Trek reference

Tuvok's face as she says that is hilarious. I think that's as close to outrage as we can expect to get from a Vulcan.

 

If it was me and my bad luck, I wouldn't expect to get paid. But I'm hoping for the best for @lanaaa . Has anyone else reported similar issues with this requester?

 

did you understand what he said

 

Its an ancient form of communication.. passed down through oral tradition in the remote tribes of man. Some say it is the language of a long forgotten god. Others think it was the result of millennia of alcohol consumption. But we all know its majestic.

Well, they have been trying to work on it since last week and got back to me today so I don't think that's an issue. It was one of those long study game type hits that broke after I was pretty far into it (I'm already upset because I didn't get to earn a bonus from it) Also, they did create an emailed code hit which is why there were issues in the first place. They assigned a code to my user ID and every time I tried to use it I got an error saying it was incorrect.

Pros:
Interesting stories.

Cons:
Lots of reading. The four stories are around 5 paragraphs each, followed by a series of questions in between each story. I feel like the pay could be about $6 and then it would be a bit more fairly paid. Nonetheless, I had to small mental break about halfway through. It was a lot to take in and try to remember everything along the way. This one just felt rough to complete.
