    I'm confused. Does it go down at the same time for everyone?

    Usually when it gets busy it will go down. It's been like this for months.

    if you have the marco molina game + survey hit have you gotten it to load?

    seems they didn't test for the number of people who'd be accessing it at once.

    I got to the point to where I connected with a partner but the game froze after I made the first move and never came back

    oh, and I turned my catcher off the first time I got a captcha on this current batch. I think that helps.

    The issue is definitely worst for me on days, when multiple batches are dropping at the same time.

    yeah, I've just been turning my catchers off and reaccepting rather than trying to catch multiples. It seems like in the last couple of weeks it's been hard to get more than 2 at a time anyway.

    I can't remember the last time I got prompted to enter a catchpa. I don't catch enough work to trigger the need to enter one. I try to work on Prolific as much as possible to avoid the website down issues on MTurk.

    See, this is what confuses me. Is it Mturk or something I'm doing, or a combo? Should I bother changing any setting on my own computer if the site's down for everyone?

    Once or twice someone complained of the error, which I didn't have. Maybe I refreshed a page at the exact right moment or something? I dunno.

    You are trying to work on MTurk. That is enough.
    But they thank you for your patience.
