    Survey # 64395325
    Length: 5 min
    43 PTS

    It's on gift cards. It sends you to another site and said it would take 15 minutes, but answered a couple of questions, thought I'd get DQd and it rerouted me back to MP for the 43 points.

    I'm 0 for 3 in the surveys I attempted this morning. The first one abruptly ended, didn't go back to My Points, so no points. The second survey - I answered a few questions, then got a screen saying it looks like I had already taken that survey, so no points. The third one, I answered a few questions, then got a blank screen, so no points. I don't feel like trying for any more surveys at this time.

    I got this nonsense question in a survey and they wouldn't let me put in the correct answer.

    Imagine there are white and black balls in a ballot box. You draw a ball 70 times. 56 times, you have drawn a white ball, 14 times a black ball. Given this record, what would you say is the probability of drawing a black ball the next time? The probability is ____ percent.

    And the correct answer is "depends on how many white and how many black were there in the first place. Do you put the ball back after drawing it"

    They required a number. How the heck do I know if I don't know what the starting situation is and whether the balls are returned after drawing them? You better believe I let them have at the comment section.

    I hope they pay attention to your valid complaint!

    My goal over the weekend was 81, for both days, and I couldn't make it either day!! Ridiculous! I clicked through HUNDREDS of surveys, only to be taken back to the MP page without any pts. Several times I got the 'looks like you already took this survey' response. (Got that twice in the last half hour). If I already completed it, then why the heck are you sending it back to me!?

    These questions are ridiculous. Just like the ones that ask you where you've shopped in the past 3-6 months, and they list stores that haven't been in business since the 80's! And the ones that ask you what your favorite childhood memory is, or what makes you decide on certain products when grocery shopping. They're all essay questions! Do they actually sit there and read these answers?? Most importanly.........WTH do these questions have to do with the friggin surveys!!


    NOTHING!!!

    I like the questions like: "Are you a born again Evangelical Christian, or not? LOL I always tell them that "or not" does not belong at the end of a question, and that it makes them look stupid.

    Thanks for the welcome. I had better luck with the surveys tonight. I got 5 points each for 3 of them, then got the full amount of points for 2 of them. The last one had some technical problems, and I couldn't complete it after answering several questions, but at least it was just that one that irritated and frustrated me.
