    For those not in the hoop, today is Selection Sunday - where the top 68 basketball teams from NCAA D1 will be seeded in a bracket that'll leave the two teams who survive to square off for the National Championship. :emoji_basketball:

    Us college football folks (whose alma maters have historically God awful basketball programs) lovingly refer to this as "Shooty Hoops Season" :emoji_laughing:

    In any case, @MyLegIsFine dropped by last night to inform us that UNU will be running their biggest project to date, and it's all focused on this tournament. If you have the MM1 Qual from Unanimous AI then you're eligible to participate in these HITs. For more info check out this post or see below:

    To be extra prepared for filling out your bracket please consider watching the selection process.

    What: 2017 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Tournament Selection Show
    When: Sunday, March 12 at 5:30 p.m. ET (make sure to be online after this for the HIT!)
    TV: CBS
    Stream: It'll be streamed live by the NCAA themselves here for free for folks with qualifying providers.
    Other Streams:     PM me or google "reddit ncaabballstreams"


    Let's get those bonuses people!

    Help! I wasn't online when they posted that qual!

    If you don't have the qual and you're truly a fan of college basketball, you might try messaging UNU. Be polite & knowledgeable! Keep in mind they really want folks who know a lot about the tournament, so if you fit that bill but just happened to miss the qual HITs its always worth a shot to get in touch if you can prove your fandom :emoji_wink:

    Multi part / day survey.

    The full study will involve taking one survey every two weeks, meaning that participation will be spread out over the course of 8 weeks. We will ask participants to come back every two weeks to complete this study task and allow them 2 days to do so each time they are asked to complete it.

    I only ever try new requesters/hit types if the pay is good. I refuse to suffer/risk rejections for less. (By the way, I only have three rejections.)

    If we go by TO they are good as far as approving but they seem to be long/involved for the pay if we listen to the couple reviews....but at the same time they may not be the brightest LED in the lamp so :dunno:

    TO is useful for info but you should never take it as gospel.

    I wonder if Sunday will be better, and if there will be another two and a half hours worth of Zs?
