Pros
Literally none. Even if the full bonus is earned (1.50), the pay will only be fair. MIT hit.Cons
Got the long version apparently. Several ac's that seemed unnecessary in relation to the pay given and time required to complete the hit. Several questions about your opinions on various topics (bubbles), sliders, three articles to read, your opinions on those, more bubbles and no mention of the bonus earned at the end.Sparrowmint Average Pace

Pros
Bonus opportunity. YMMV. Bonus not stated at the end. Using a once cent placeholder.Edit: 42 cent bonus paid on 8/23. Updated rating to Low.
Cons
Several rounds which makes this pretty lengthy. If bonus is not great, this will be underpaid.
