    Ok, here is a quick question that I have obviously given much thought to (got to love an OCD mind), and I would love to see what others think should be the correct response:

    How many letters are in the word "obligatory"?

    But is the question not vague enough to be interpreted to receive an answer of 9?

    Eight. I jumped into things without a knowledge of the consequences and a grasp of all of the resources, and I paid the price for it.

    How would it be 9? If it wants the count without duplicates it should have stated so.

    Yeah, unfortunately even 1 rejection screws you out of this batch.

    Right but the question is how many letters, the question does not state how many characters in length. You get the kind of rabbit hole BS an OCD mind can come up with?

    The correct response if the question master says it isn't 10 is to say "Fuck you" and then walk out. If 10 isn't correct it is a failure on their part for wording the question poorly imho.

    Either 9 or 10; it is not a precise question. That is the kind of question I expect from psychologists and requesters, not other turkers.

    Did anyone else have the 2 questions about if you had heard something before or not hang up the study for them in the Jeremy Wilmer hit?
