Hey Digital Nomad, I've got 3 years Mturking, and Masters, and I did Sergio's HITs. Feel free to judge though...

Was just coming back to check on this one. I have 160+ pending Sergio Escalera HITs, none paid, first batch at 8 cents from 5/2, and another batch at 4 cents (same task, lower pay) on 5/7. With the script, they are about 20 seconds each (for me), which works out to $7.20/hour, and sometimes that's just fine.

I don't only choose work on pay. I sometimes focus on easy HITs that I can do without thinking, or little thought, because my other work can be very mentally tiring. Sergio's qualify, as did Giphy Simpsons.

Has anyone been paid on this requester's HITs yet? 15 day AA
My test one still pending.

Quit trying to defend requester paying shit.

Criticizing fellow Mturkers, because we choose HITs for different reasons, helps each other ... how?
Noone is criticizing you for selling your life for ten cents a minute. I'm just saying it's a losing battle if you're going to come onto an mTurk forum and try to defend requesters for swindling workers.

re: "swindling workers" "defending requesters" "selling your life for ten cents a minute"

Someone does not sound happy.

And I'm confused at the anger, aiming at me, when I'm here sharing what work for me, and asking for more information from fellow workers.

I asked a specific question, and offered specifics about what I, and many others, worked. I aimed no personal attacks at you, and did not insult you.

It makes this place pretty unwelcoming.

I completely agree. I don't do batches a whole lot so my numbers are rather low compared to most here. I tend to stick to surveys mostly and only hit my goal of $20 a day so I'm not familiar with batches really. Finding batches like this one are honestly perfectly fine especially if you're looking to get your numbers up imo. Though I'm worried about his TO and my 60+ HITS still pending, I honestly don't mind his HITS either. I can understand how people are upset with the reduced pay, and obviously I'd like if it were increased again too but for a HIT that takes me about 20-25 seconds, I don't see the problem. I like them because they aren't so mind-numbing like some of these batches or surveys are lol. It's a good recharge opportunity. :p As long as I'm getting my numbers up and making a bit of money, I'll keep doing his HITs as well so long as the approval is fair and pay isn't reduced further.

Yea, sorry. I didn't mean to insult you, I apologize.

Re: British Endors...

I wonder if anyone in Endor land has noticed they still have 57K sitting there after several days, and that maybe they failed to evaluate accurately how many British Mturk workers there actually are...
nope... They had one fat batch i believe it was Hindu or maybe something else that sat there until it expired.
