it's not in the email, but the hit said anyone way out of the median range. So as long as you're around 30 mins, you should be fine. They specifically said median, not mean average or numerical average, so it's half fall below that point, half above. They're just throwing out the outliers, which is pretty typical in polls and other sampling.
It's still not what they advertised. All this extra math is added later. In selling that's called bait and switch.15 /hr. At 30 is a half hour, which is 7.50. At .25 per min. Don't say you're gonna pay me for my time and not do exactly that.

I'll be happy with either $6.50 or $7. I just think they should pay something. I mean, I did the hit conscientiously and thought about my responses. I guess we'll see.
I wouldn't worry about them not paying you. If they're willing to pa $15/hour, they're not gonna quibble on a few mins either way on a half hour hit. They are just covering themselves for someone that speeds thru and finishes in 6 min and the guy that drags it out for an hour so they can get $15

it's not bait and switch. They said median time was 27 mins or something, they pay $15/hour, so they raised the bonus to 7 instead of 6.50. Bitch about the guys paying $6 /hour and think it's a fair wage

The rejection I received on Prolific the other day was overturned, but the researcher also messaged me to say they won't be using my data. Still slightly miffed that the initial rejection was for "taking too long". So I'm now at 888 approvals and 0 rejections, so there's that.
