    Nope, basically true. Literally nothing has gone as planned for me in, I think, six weeks.

    To be clear, I'm the rude one here. I had planned to post batches all weekend (including the holiday) but didn't get the go ahead on Friday like I'd planned (I'd actually gotten it but had missed a step which resulted in the delay... urrrrghghghgh!).

    My plan for this week is to load 5 to 6 batches (depending on cost). With quals going out this morning, I hope I can post today, but lord knows what happens when I make promises.

    I'm crossing my fingers for today! It's been far, far too long since I've posted a batch.

    Hey guys!

    It looks like a few of you are being issued strange qual numbers. This, I believe, must be an error do to the port (account migration things we're doing on the back end). This process is in another team's hands right now, but if you receive a "bum" qual (anything less than 80) today, please send me your Worker ID and I will make it right!

    Remember you can also email me at ocmp34@gmail.com.

    Thanks,
    ocmp34

    Thanks, not sure all would agree :) I think my track record for things going as planned is near 40% at this point. Yikes! I think this back-end migration will be very helpful.

    How big do you expect the batches to be? And what do you expect to be posting in the weeks ahead? (Ideally, anyway. Let's pretend that things magically work from today on out.)

    Sorry to ask. I'm impatient for work :)

    Well, a batch for us is defined as 10,000 nonprofits. That means there will be 3000 Find the Homepage tasks, and then each "batch" of tasks from there on shrinks, usually ending with around 200 categorize/extract tasks. 5-6 batches this week.

    As for the next set of batches, it depends on the success of this batch and getting to go-ahead from the executive team. In the past, not only did I have to wait for that, I *also* had to wait 7-10 days for accounting - that should come down now to about a day, which reduces the gap between batches significantly as long as I continue to receive the go-ahead.

    A friend of mine said to PM and request the qual, but I never got a response. Should I PM again or is this closed to new peeps? Thanks!

    I wish I had asked for this qual back in the day, today is so slow.

    I've cleared out my inbox and will add new quals momentarily. I have some tweaking to do.

    That said, I'm almost ready to post a batch! I think a few of you got in just now when it was supposed to be in sandbox - I cancelled it because it shouldn't have gone to prod, so just hold your horses :)

    Afternoon!

    Got this message after doing a few: "Task is currently not available. Please, try to complete this task later."

    Is there a limit on these, or are there problems?

    Hey guys, wow! You are so fast! That batch was supposed to go to sandbox but I miscoded it to go to production. Regardless, I have now proven the batch works and will be posting the REAL batch in a few minutes. My apologies, friends!

    Hello, I was directed to this thread from another thread. Just wondering if anyone can tell me how to get the qualifications to do the ocmp34 HITs. Thanks!
