Can't Find Good HITs? 9/26

I have personally seen HITs that require certain low levels of abandoned HITs. I have never seen one that had anything to do with returned HITs... I will return a HIT in a heartbeat - but sometimes I do get abandoned ones. Usually it's a crappy situation where I refreshed a page and accidentally accepted an extra HIT I didn't realize or I get so caught up in one set of HITs I forget about another... I would say that if you can, RETURN a HIT before you let it Abandon.

But in general neither really matter too awful much. Just your Approval Rate!!! Keep that above 99% if you can! Anything below 95% can be catastrophic and too much lower than that (I don't know the number) Amazon mTurk will be in contact with you about an account suspension!

Requester: Albert S Wang Reward: $0.20 per HIT

took me a minute. This is a new requester so no TO, he originally put that approved HITs had to be 0 so I messaged him and told him about it and he fixed it. Communication is usually a good sign.

Getting this HIT to work is part of the study, I think... Read the HIT page carefully - do what it says... I'd say more, but I have a feeling the issue you are talking about is part of the study. Not sure.

Does anyone else despise Prisoner's Dilemma stuff?
I *always* choose to act in the manner that benefits all participants most, but I have also been an Internet user since there was nothing but Telnet (yeah yeah, old) and I have developed a hearty distrust of other people's actions in anonymous situations...
