    Yeah, like having to press the 'continue' button was what made it so frustrating.

    This morning I got this one:

    Guessing study
    Hosted by Farhana Tabassum
    £2.00•18 minutes• £6.67/hr •120/120

    Was quite fun and didn't take as long as I thought it would.

    Bit of info re Prolific's Chrimbo arrangements.....


    'Christmas-alert: Our Prolific Support Team will be offline for the Christmas period (22/12/18 to 1/1/19 inclusive), taking a well-earned rest.
    We encourage you to ask any questions, or raise any anticipated support-related issues this week, so we have ample time to assist you.

    For participants, this also means that payments will be run on 21 & 28 December 2018 and on 2 January 2019, but not on any other dates during the Christmas break. This does not affect instant cash-outs.'

    Wonder if we'll get any studies on Xmas day?

    I might be busy stuffing myself with chicken noodles.

    I was offered a 40 minute study, but failed at entering my prolific ID, it kept saying invalid number :sad:

  • I've had a good day survey wise too.

    Been offered that one with the microphone about 3 times today - not interested!

    Anyone else got a headache after doing the survey with the squares and dots?
