I'm not sure what level task it was, but I did get a review the keywords task briefly yesterday, so I assume there should be a good batch of those available at some point maybe today with so many write keywords tasks available.

I've not had any approved as of yet on that task, or on the write descriptions to images task which was for the most part easy, though it was kind of tricky when the photo was of some random, bizarre looking plant that I didn't know what the hell it was, my description was something rubbish like 'exotic, spiky plant with a blue sky background':rotfl:

Not sure if the rules have changed but you're not supposed to use colours unless it refers to the only colour in the image. Might be best to double check as it is getting harder to get through the jobs that are official Crowdflower ones, in the past you could just approve almost every single keyword someone typed but now the jobs are ridiculous!

Yes, also wasn't credited for an SSI survey, which is uncommon.

Have you had any approved yet Alundra? I've only just done a couple now. I wonder if you have to be level three to review them as I can't see the tasks Katy mentioned about doing that.

I haven't had any approved yet... maybe they won't until everyone has done them?

And Katy as Fee said, it's the 8 words min, and 16 words max one.

Its back on again now.

Anyone else doing the twitter user categorisation task? Very straightforward task, yet some of their test questions are frustrating inconsistent, making it almost like a guessing game at times. For example, there has been one or 2 profiles where the wikipedia page of the person said that the person was a TV presenter and a model, yet for some reason they've ignored the fact she's a TV presenter and just accepted model ('Beauty' category). While now I've just got another one where the wikipedia page stated she was a professional model and TV actress, yet only accepted the TV category, despite the article stating 'professional mode' before TV actress. I swear sometimes its like they're deliberately trying to wind you up with their inconsistency, and I've no idea why they couldn't accept both categories like they've done for other ones.
