I've had exactly the same issues/debate/outcome in the past.

I have had this message a few times but it didnt seem to impact my availability. I was never too sure what they were for… I know some of the exerpts/images were repeats and I wonder whether it is if you chose differently for them?

However - these seem to have completely dried up for me since the weekend. I am wondering if anyone else may have had this. There was a period like this over Xmas too where I didnt have one for a few days. But I guess the info gathering has to end some time :( - but theyve been a serious money maker for me in the last few months, I reckon I must be well into the £hundreds from them.

I've not had any since last Thursday after being swamped with them Mon, Tue and Wed. I had one warning message last week and thought they had blocked me. They might be just pausing them till they go with another big batch?

I get one of those messages every few days. Does seem silly when they ask you to pick the one you prefer etc. I have had quite a few of the studies today so not affecting me getting them.

Possibly. I think its safer to go with worse case scenario though and assume no more are coming - and if they do, well cushty. I am still getting plenty of other surveys, admittedly none which pay £3.60 for 15 minutes of comparitively little effort.
It would be sods law if they do come in the next few days as I am in Wales with only my laptop, which doesnt have sufficient screen resolution to complete them mind!

I can only really imagine its when they give us the same video twice (or more) and a different choice is made. I can vaguely get that but there are times when you do a bulk of them in a sitting that the videos can be really close in terms of choice and you just forget or maybe the internet plays up a little.

They come and go for me - I think it depends on what group you are in and whether you are on rotation or not. I've not had any of the 'prefer' type ones in ages, but have had lots of ones with more of an emphasis on fact-checking in the last couple of week.

Looking on other forums this is pretty common, and I think a lot of participants are probably abandoning them for this reason. Some of them have complex graphics that describe detailed statistics or even scientific processes, which the instructions clearly indicate you are meant to verify their accuracy by checking on Google or other search engines.

But if you do that, you will get penalized saying you didn't get through enough tasks in the 15 minutes!

I think i have jinxed myself now as haven't had any in a few days!

no me too. Unfortunately I think it must have finished.

That said, I am still getting plenty of other surveys. Just none which are £3.65 for 15 minutes and you can sit back with a tea and watch videos lol.
