Has anyone looked at the bot? Anywhere we can see some source code? I want to know if it only picks up those with the host at https://www.mturk.com... or all links. I guess we could also forge fake links that have the right host but direct to some meaningless ending part that 404s.
So my Qualification Value for these hits is 2... Does that mean I accidentally Requested this Qual twice? I e-mailed the requester about it, just curious if anyone knows why I can't work on these
No. It's being done server side. We can't see it. (I tried to find this out earlier with help from a developer friend.) Sure, but if the bot had an account, it could do the same thing.
Well, someone said earlier that the bot is only grabbing the first URL in each post and ignoring the rest of the URLs in your post, right? So if you want to post a HIT, post a regular link to an Oscar HIT (keep it in a hotkey, etc.) and then use the HIT exporter script to share the actual HIT you want to post about.
Like hunter said probably a good idea to just PM andy with our ideas. When we post suggestions here whoever is reading it can just find a way around it
I don't even think it'd be useful to anyone. I'd lose my freaking mind starring and refreshing that crappy website all day. It's just really creepy/invasive like what the NSA and the US Gov has going on.
Every time I try to do a CrowdFlower lately, I always get the message that there are no more hits. I want to believe the next one will work but it never does Congrats to those who actually get to do the CF hits.
Everyone in my house is asleep/gone and I have a raging migraine and need cuddles. Anyone want to come over? I'll give you the whole $1.59 I've made today..........
I'm sure they could modify it so that a while loop keeps parsing links in a given post until there are no more links in that post. I don't know why the developer hasn't done that yet.
Yeah, for some reason my chrome is extremely slow though. I've uninstalled it and deleted all extensions multiple times and it still is insanely slow.
Sneak into bed with someone else. Then whine to them if they wake up - what are they gonna do, yell and give you a worse migraine? No. ...But that $1.59 sure is tempting...
