Pros
University of WaterlooIRB approved
Go through the opening of about 40 loot boxes and tell your feelings about each loot box, then answer generic psych questions, then answer questions about gambling, then receive code
It's about Overwatch I guess
Survey is hidden behind a 2 question qual test to screen for workers
Cons
Each loot box has an unnecessary 10 second timer, and there are 6 questions after each loot box, 4 of which are slidersSurvey uses the old Qualtrics layout and has a million questions per page for the psych set and gambling questions, which makes this more than bubble hell
Demographics questions are squished between the loot box and psych set questions, and there's a reCAPTCHA at the very end for whatever reason
Overall extremely tedious and underpaid for how much effort this survey takes

Pros
-Videos were not hosted on youtube-Unfortunately accurate progress bar
-Qual is up on Qualifye
Cons
-Unsure how some got this done in 15 minutes. Could be highly dependent on your interwebs speed since mine is pretty garbo where I took this so the videos were loading pretty slow
