05/19 - Simoleon Sunday!

[rsmath]

It's an HBO series, so in true HBO fashion the first season or two are basically just soft-core porn (though, the sex stuff was toned down a bit in later seasons.)

Sex in the City is shown in off-air syndication so it's possible for a HBO show to be shown in syndication.

Oh, y’all are talking about the Vicky qual. You made me go back two pages just to find out it was for something stupid.

Good luck ruining your lives.

Also, why put out the qual Sunday night? That’s lowkey kinda evil. Especially because of how people feel about the qual.

If they do, they’ll remove all the good stuff from it and it won’t be the same show. But probably not. Plus, they want to sell more HBOGo subs anyway.

Good luck everyone, I'm done.

Who's Watching American Idol ? Who do you think will win ?
!

Is that still on the air?

I haven't watched American Idol since season 4. I don't watch any of the other song shows either since there are so many of them.

I do watch America's Got Talent, but I think they need to reject the singers (if you are a singer, there are 100 shows you can go on to sing) and make it American citizens only as I"m tired of seeing all the foreign reject acts on the show that is supposedly called "America"'s Got Talent, not World's Got Talent.

Hey, Believe it or not, I still have a working 8 track , with a library of tapes to go in it.

i=) I still have my 3 inch wide Yellow Pages Phone Book

Literally TEN MINUTES after I focused on finishing the Curious Labs hit.

Edit: I'm going ham now but I expect I will *never* see this qual. I bet whichever random day they choose next year I'll be gone. Worst thing about mTurk is the "haha you missed it" thing, which is completely built into the system. I mean, basically, Just got ten bucks and now I'm mad. It sucks all the pleasure out of the work.

I was just able to grab 6 hits a few minutes ago, and they gave me the qual for it. Try turning your search timer down there are some still floating around out there.

Do you run anything to alert you when you're not looking at MTurk? Even when I'm not working, I always try to keep HIT Finder or something going, so I get the push alerts sent to my phone when stuff posts.

Ehhh unfortunately I don't have push notifications set up for a couple of reasons, one of which is that, for reasons too complex to get into, I just can't have my attention on this all day every day. If I end up working 1 hour out of 3 for 18 hours instead of 6 hours in a stretch I end up crashing and can't work at all the next day. It's a messed-up health thing.

For example I didn't technically sleep all day Saturday but I might as well have. Worked hard on Friday, not functional or thinking clearly on Saturday (or most of today, really).

So I'm guaranteed to miss a lot of stuff, which doesn't make it any less annoying that it's necessary.

If I were to get a rare qual I guess I'd have to set something like that up and just discipline myself to ignore some notifications (good luck).

Well, for me, way better than 6am where I will never see it at all.

They count the ones you did last qual batch apparently, @JenniLeigh said in the Discord

I have to wait a couple hours to watch because I need to pick my wife up from work right in the middle of the episode. Guess I'll just unplug everything in the apartment.

I just caught two. Guess we'll find out if that's enough.

I only did one from the last round, so I've done 5 in total that I'm aware of... but I'm not about to complain!

Soooooo not so bad a day after all? Even if this is not a "great Vicky" I'll take it.

And I'll drop the other one (oop 2) in my queue in 5 minutes, so the rest of you hamming can try to catch them.
