    I gave up after 2 tries some time back, there's a similar requester (possibly the same, can't remember) that also has insane pre-tests. All of my NOPE.

    There's a limit to how much frustration I am willing to subject myself to!

    For reals. I say, it's not even worth the crappy pay if the pre-test makes your head hurt and has more math in it than a high school math book. Just let me click some buttons and be done damnit!

    I keep kicking myself for being cautious and missing out on money... So I did as many as a could. But I don't really know if it's okay or not.

    I went ahead and grabbed all of the geza translation HITs, so I hope that was the right move!

    What is a geza translation hit? Is that the one where we changed the machine translation?

    She is communicative on, uh, another forum, and it really sounds like she just wants the hits worked on for her translating thing. They were masters only earlier but some posters over there convinced her to post non-masters as well.

    I went ahead and did 4 more. :lol:

    The thing isn't even worth it when you pass the pretest. I found all the differences on all of the images and the pay is .03 and supposedly .12 for the bonus. So it took me 30 min to earn .15. The only reason I even did it is because my perfectionism made me determined to find them all.

    Hmm, what should I do with my large .04 bonus? New car or a boat?

    I believe that, in some form or another, is really what they are studying here. Just how much effort will people invest in the strange tasks they invent? At any rate, I'm pretty positive that their HITs are designed to be--for whatever reason--deliberately frustrating. After playing around with a couple back in October, I never looked at them again.

    Sure, I can buy anything! I found the differences on all 3 images so I should be getting the uber huge ginormous bonus of 0.12!
