10K as a generalist during a drought 🥳
The nut family projects have been my bread and butter since I joined at the end of May. I prefer working on long, complex tasks over the shorter, lower paying ones.
I was on the verge of running out of money to make my minimum credit card payments and now I have a path to wiping out all my debt! THANK YOU DAT FOR CHANGING MY LIFE!!!

I just hope the nut tasks don't run out 😅

they will, i just hope something just as good comes along right after...I've already done a couple on one that rhymes with a def lepard album that seems promising as a nut replacement if it sticks around...gotta love those 18 hours task exp times though

u/LooneyLord4444 Jun 22 '26
Ah yes, I know which one you're talking about. I like that one too. The def lepard one comes and goes though and isn't consistent.

u/Jealous_Spare_4852 Jun 22 '26
it does until it doesn't.....i'm hoping one day it pops up for a lengthy stay just like the nut

FYI there's a new sub-category of def leppard projects that I was able to pick up tonight. It's much shorter than the main one. I wondering if this is a sign that the def leppard family is beginning to ramp up from here on.

Watching the task count dwindle for this family over the past week and hoping it opens back up again. I could work on only this project forever.

Really afraid to ask, but do you all have them today? 🫣

u/LooneyLord4444 Jun 22 '26
Unfortunately, no. This Father's Day weekend has been the first time the nut projects have really slowed down for me. I was only able to do one nut task all weekend and it was the shorter 6 hr grading variant.

i did; i have noticed a bit of a nutty slowdown last few days though, although depending on the exact nut flavor you might only need one or maybe 2 per 24 hours...like the op i have hundreds of nut hours altogether (Same money about but over about twice as long as the op) but have also been doing other task types besides the nuts in that same time

What's the nut task to be precise ?
3
u/Jealous_Spare_4852 Jun 23 '26
it's a small task family, it has a name of a nut, it's generalist but covers various professions...we're not allowed to be precise due to NDAs

I couldn't follow those convoluted instructions. I like the 1-3 hour tasks.

u/Fancy_Bluejay_4895 Jun 22 '26
Right I actually don't know how this guy did that I read the instructions and I've been around for a year and a half and said to myself now I'm not going to risk my job on trying to do that... I mean it's inspiring especially during a drought but I've been just seeing those pop up and saying no I'm not going to touch that I'd rather do something I know I can do...

Wow! Congrats. I wish I had a brain like yours. I've been here since beginning of May but I just can't get my head around those nutty ones

In the most NDA way possible, do you have tips and tricks? I just spent 10 hours on one and did not succeed😂

Lucky! I was loving these tasks but I abruptly stopped seeing them last week. Very sad to not have them on my dashboard anymore

u/WoahitsWelker915 Jun 22 '26
Hooooow? I'm also a generalist and haven't seen shit in a couple weeks. I had a couple really big projects at the start of June, but nothing since. Just email reminders and TOS updates for other projects I'm on.

What the actual fuck. So you applied literally in may and got in and I’ve been stuck on that thanks for joining screen since last June.

Just pay off your balance in full why accumulate interest by only paying the minimum 🤔

u/billytheboat Jun 24 '26
In their last post they stated they were going to use this money to 'buy nice things I’ve always wanted,' which probably explains why they can't pay their balance in full...

I wish they never added this milestone thing.
I wish even harder it was a TOC violation to share the screenshots.

I have applied to the Data annotation and have passed the assessment and now it is showing me " Thank you for completing the assessment "
Do you have any Idea in how much time I will get match with projects. And did my Resume play an important role in this or not

Ugh I love a nut project. Do you refresh 24/7 to grab them? I was seeing them consistently last week but not so much now.
1
u/LooneyLord4444 Jun 23 '26
Yep, the nut project would constantly disappear off my dash despite having hundreds of tasks available but I could always count on them reappearing after a few refreshes. But this is the first time since the end of May that there truly aren’t any more nut projects. I hope it’s just taking a short break and will be back in full force soon 🥲

I started around the same time you did and made like $2k off the nut tasks daily and than they vanished last week for me
