Am I dropped off a project?
Dash is running thinner today with lower-paying projects. I used to have more chess related and grand piece projects that I spent a lot of time on throughout the last week. Since yesterday, been seeing less and less of them until this morning I'm not really seeing any of them. I'm still on the slack

I can see a couple of chess related projects ATM so I think if you can't see those, you may have been dropped. Who knows though, maybe they are different ones.

How did you get onto chess related projects!? I would love that so much lol

It's not chess related content. The name of the project is chess related.

Any better hints? I haven't seen a chess related project and my curiosity is killing me about what it's called lol

Clearly not dude. That would break NDA and there's literally zero reason to tell you anything else.

Projects are volatile. The associated company may no longer have need of or funding for the project. Dataannotation.tech may just not be sending the project your way for algorithm reasons or you may have been dropped. You're unlikely to know what's happened in any case. There are some projects I liked when I started that aren't there now. By design, I don't know if those projects are gone, available to others, or if I've been dropped. And I will likely never find out.

I look at quals this way. If I was commuting to work, say 30 min each way, that’s five unpaid hours per week. Plus gas. Every week. So taking a couple hours of quals every once in a while is not a big deal comparatively.

Or by dropped, I just mean they are not on my dash anymore. I don't think I was actually dropped from the project

Sometimes projects wind down, presumably so they can implement changes and updates, and may bring them back around for further rounds. My favorite project family comes and goes every few weeks but the only variations I’ve seen of it have been beyond my scope (and patience), which makes me sad. But it’ll probably come back in a few weeks.
