Bye Alundra

Honestly am starting to despair of the so called "Correct" answers in the test questions... I've had a fair few now that are blatantly wrong... badly wrong.
I can only hope that Crowdflower will start wondering why everyone is getting booted out in droves after the same test questions. I've pointed out so many glaring errors to them now, I'm starting to feel a bit school-marmish and don't want to be running to them every day. LOL

Are you doing the task about two words that are interchangeable by any chance?

I only ask because I've had the same problem and have complained via the incorrect answers, they usually adjust that one quite quickly... Still waiting though!

Related, yet very unrelated.

Clixsense obviously pays in dollars which is coverted to pounds by Paypal. Is the rate very low at the moment or is it just me?

Dont know much about currencies but is that likely to go back to normal soon?

Just working on the task where you mark spam/profanity etc on posts, it now says this, after I have completed 25 tasks!

You don't meet the qualifications for this task.
Many of our tasks require that you have special qualifications before you can work on them. It seems you don't quite have all of the qualifications this task requires.

Eek! Anyone have this before? I've just refreshed task page and all the Chinese tasks that I've had there for weeks (that I can't do as I don't speak the language) have gone too...!

Oh No
I also have this was in the middle of task had the same message. So I thought maybe it was the task, refreshed a wine task instead and same message.

Today upon cashing out it is was 0.582 pounds per dollar, this is the lower of the 0.598-0.581 rates I've seen in the last six months. I don't believe it will go up much now, Paypal are like that.

No movement on the leaderboard since this happened, not even 1 task! I think it is linked to the - % accuracy problem again. Seems to be affecting (effecting?) prolific taskers...!

@ Katy

Accuracy also has a line through it agan, and the chinese tasks have gone so I thought they'd ended/tidied up the tasks page but got the same message as you
Sent you a PM with task list

System

Thanks, just checked, we've got the exact same list (as always!) so hopefully it'll change back soon! At least it isn't just me, going to use the time to complete e-mail surveys, update my signature in a bit (another £80 ish to go on woohoo!) and enjoy either an early night or some Minecraft

No, a different one about gauging sentiment about verizon. It's like whoever marked the correct answers were only half paying attention.

I saw one Swedish language task where the "correct answer" was completely identical to what I had put- same spelling, same capitalisation - but it still marked me wrong.
Some of the comments people had left under that one were pretty colourful ... lol... there was a half a page of f words left by one person... eek!
