Pros
more of a general review of this requester; technical issues in the follow-up HIT lost about a half hour of my progress after server issues had already caused about 30 minutes worth of connectivity problems. Response to my email about the issue was immediate, and they insisted upon full payment for my trouble because it was confirmed to be on their end (can't complain about that). Paid through bonus the next morning. I included a rough estimate of my total time spent just for transparency.Portion of the experiment I was able to do was quite interesting.
Cons
Lot of instructions and obviously the interface is still a little buggy.

Pros
-Can probably be done a little faster. It took me a couple rounds to figure out how to do this the best way.-Different than typical surveys and experiments
Cons
-A lot of instructions to read through in the beginning that aren't the easiest to understand. Game becomes a lot easier to understand as you go though.-Lost connection twice towards the end but it reconnected quickly. It is defintely worrisome though when you are already over an hour into a task.
