Pros
Getting to write this whopper of a review. I'm a different person now than I was two hours ago.Cons
WHAT A HEAPING PILE OF TRASH OMG. You know how some HITs, the times are massively overestimated, you shave off a few minutes, and it's sort of worthwhile? Hard nope - this one ended up taking longer, times provided by requester are the fasted completion. No bonus or additional pay no matter how well you perform, just the pleasure of completing this absolute piece of garbage HIT. Requires constant attention of focus while simultaneuously lulling you to sleep and expecting you to remember anything from your dream state. All for less than minimum wage that I'll STILL have to be taxes on. This is EVERYTHING that's wrong with mTurk all bundled into one flaming hunk of junk. Too far in to turn back, so you sink more time into this meaningless underpaid void.Terrasita Average Pace

Pros
It eventually ended.Cons
DO NOT DO BOTHER WITH THIS HIT. To see why, see the email I sent the requester:I just have to tell you how tortuous this HIT was. It was the worst HIT I have ever done on mturk and I have finished about 12,000. It took me about 2 hours to finish with only 2 5 minute breaks, which means it is severely underpaid. For comparison, I have recently completed a $24 HIT in about a half hour. Not only was it time consuming and required my constant attention, it was DIFFICULT. I had to go through a practice round SEVEN TIMES because I didn't get 90% correct. It wasn't because I wasn't paying attention, but because it was HARD. Add to that the constant threat of rejection if you do poorly during the actual trial run (Which I did on the last task--I scored average of 73ish% and needed 80%).

Pros
Can take breaks between rounds, but no longer than 4 minutes. Approved instantly despite the issues.Cons
4 ~5 minute rounds of pressing z,x,n,m very quickly in response to images, no progress bar during the round, will be rejected if your accuracy is lower than 70% (YMMV, I didn't find it that hard). Post-task questionnaire was broken and could not be completed, requester replied in 3 minutes saying they would fix it, but they didn't so I sent another email saying I had 17 minutes left, no response with 3 minutes left so I entered my worker ID as the post-task questionnaire code and then submitted with the code given to me afterwards.
