During the task, we showed to you the same pairs multiple times. You gave different answers for the same pairs too frequenty. Having inconsistent replies from users is destructive for our project.Sorry but we automatically reject your task I did the same HIT yesterday and answered completely the same and didn't get that message. Seems like they are adding it to get free data without having to pay.
what the freak are up with these CAPTCHAs. i swear i type in each letter/number correctly, but it keeps saying otherwise. sometimes i'll miss 3 in a row and it'll lock me out, even though i'm POSITIVE i typed down all the letters and numbers.
Update their TO, if you haven't already! That happens to me, too. I've figured out that it seems to matter how fast you do it. Even if you type the letters/numbers in correctly, if you hit "enter" too fast, it'll reject it. I now type the letters/numbers, count to 5, and then submit.
My problem is that when I mistype the first time, it keeps those six characters in the box for the next one. Most of the time I don't notice, so I type the second without erasing the first, making it wrong again. I usually catch it the third time, but still, it's a pain when I'm in the middle of a good batch.

Does anyone else leave a little positive note in HITS that ask for comments at the end? I recently noticed that I almost automatically type "thank you" or "have a great day!" in them w/out even really thinking. I can't be the only one, can I?
If it's a survey and it's been entertaining/chatty/has personality to it, I'll type "thanks!" or something in the box at the end. If it's all formal with the standard language, I won't.
If I am answering a survey completely honestly and I feel that it paints me in a bad light, I will use that box to try to explain my answers with a little more depth. It even got me a bonus once.
Hadn't even thought of it paying off, I just like to leave little happy notes here and there when I can. Kind of glad to know I'm not the only one.
