lol yeah it was!

 

hahaha i didnt catch those spelling mistakes.

That's pretty sad for a university

wait was it a university?

 

I remember doing an awesome batch from someone called Furca. It was write 1 sentence about surfing. I know nothing about surfing, but the questions were pretty simple and I was able to answer them in less than a minute. I haven't seen them again since, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about them? I look for them everyday but they never have anything anymore.

 

All I could think about during that survey was how screwed up my stomach would be if all I ate was fruit chunks for 36 days LOL.

 

Glad I'm not the only one that noticed that. That's why I really think I'd love doing the writing HITS; I'm such a grammar Nazi.

 

not all that out of the ordinary at that level, i was a writing tutor at my university, and many of the students who were sent to me were graduate students who came from europe and asia who were still working out the differences between the english they were taught in school and actual, effective english...

 

I'll update when paid. Still nothing yet!

45 minute timer for a $5 survey O.O

no TO

 

Know what, Furca is the admin of this forum, Andy.

 

asks for mturk username and password??

EDIT: this is some swedish university, or appears to be, so i'm going to go on the assumption that, minus language barrier, they're asking us to register for the survey, not provide our mturk credentials

 

Made me feel like Steve Martin... Ah... It's a profit deal. Takes the pressure off.

 

Be careful with this one. There is a post on the general forum here where someone lost access to their account and they said the HIT asked for their password. Not worth it.

ETA: Just reported it.

 

This is why many people check TO first: http://turkopticon.differenceengines.com/A66YW0N6XZUOJ

Neato. He needs to add more hits! LOL

 

You may be right. A red flag just went up because someone gave their password on a survey yesterday.

 

yea i thought we had to "make" a username and password. I didn't put my mturk info in.
Hopefully no one did that.

 

yea that is scary. Best to be safe!
