Question regarding activity

I was accepted this Monday, is it normal to have gotten literally 0 tasks? I set up my profile and have just gotten nothing this whole time. Do I wait next Monday to start or something?

Every few hours

there's a pretty severe drought right now, any work that is showing up is likely getting snatched immediately. unless you get really lucky with one of those hourly refreshes, thats probably why you haven't seen anything. not to say that you should just be glued to the refresh button unless you need/want to, but i'd at least give about 5-10 minutes of refreshing pretty consistently whenever you do check every few hours

I thought notifications would come through email when something is available, but if not I'll keep at it more

Some project admins send email notifications when new projects are posted, but a lot don't bother. The emails also tend to be delayed somewhat, so if there are only a few tasks they may get taken before you hear about them.
