If not enough people join a chat hit, but the requester does give a code does this mean he rewards the full amount of the hit? I thin/ I just made 7$ it 10 minutes.
Every requester handles this scenario differently, though it's usually outlined somewhere within the HIT (description, iFrame page, instructions/introduction to the study, etc.) But IME, some requesters will only pay if the task was completed, or if a specific amount of time has passed while waiting for the other participant...unfortunately, I don't think there is much of a rule of thumb. IMO, I would contact the requester while you have time remaining on the timer, and get their opinion.

if you got a code and it tells you to submit the hit you'll get the full amount, they can't pay less than what the hit is. Some of the chat/game hits do that. But make sure it doesn't say something like "go look for X hit and submit this code"

I think I just got a literal insane person in those NTA hits. His web page had a huge picture of slaves being hung right as the header and he had a sections on his page called 'The truth about The Matrix' and 'The End of Masculinity'. Also global warming is a hoax and there is a massive cabal of child molesters running the entire world. NAMBLA is only the beginning.
Por favor: NTA, who dat?

You know what is really lame? Waiting for a company to call you and tell you the house is done so you can go sign your lease.
I was never fond of the phrase "A watched pot never boils." As a kid, my parents would use this anytime something wasn't going quick enough for me. So I got a pot out one day, and put a few cups of water in it, and waited until it boiled on the stove. I watched the whole time, and sure as shit, that water boiled...but it really seemed to take a whole lot longer than it did in reality.

My takeaway from that, was that the saying is just a little butchered IMO. I think it would be better to say, 'A watched pot never seems to boil,' as while you're watching it, it just takes forever and seems as though it will never reach a boil! Point being, if you think about and concentrate on anything enough, your perception is likely to make it seem slower, etc.

Try to distract yourself, and let it be a pleasant surprise when the news comes! :wink: Just my 2 cents though.

I understand that, problem is though, it requires all sorts of extra planning like the lease office is 30 minutes from here in rush hour so my GF has to leave work early, we also are going on vacation in less than a month. I just really need this to speed up so things can be ready to go.

I like watching water boil. I use gluten free noodles which need some olive oil to not stick, and watching the oil separate and re-form globs is really pretty. I also have a baby, so I might just be more prone to staring blankly at things during this phase of my life though.

Staring blankly at things can be meditative and calming. :)
