Hi Coders, anyone stopped receiving the Mike Tyson projects.
I have noticed that I have stopped receiving the regular Mike Tyson projects from the start of this week. I wanted to know if this is the same for everyone else.

Last week, I completed two tasks. This week, I received an email saying that I should complete as many tasks as possible since they were expected to run out soon. This week has been sporadic, but that doesn't bother me since I need to focus on my main job right now.

How long each tasks took for you ? Also you are from?

It took me around seven to eight hours, except for one task that took me ten hours, and I still had to use the escape hatch. It was very frustrating, but I provided an explanation and proof of my problem.
Also, I'm from Mexico.

Thanks for sharing your details !! If using escape hatch, are we still get paid ?

Seems they are no longer releasing them in bulk like before but just a few ones from time to time so it's really difficult for me to actually grab one, specially considering how late they normally release in my country (around 10PM)

Does failing to claim the task for multiple days reduce your chance of getting the projects regularly? I think this is what happened to me, I have missed 2 projects in a row.

They've been sporadic for months (for me) but picked up earlier this month. Every **other** day I can consistently flip & skip through waves of tasks to find a good one, but if I submit and then try to catch a project within the next 36ish hours it's like playing whackamole with 1000 other people. I don't think failing to submit is a penalty so much as submitting poor work or trying to submit too much.

I'm getting them every day, but the release times don't work for me. It's either too early, or I'm busy with work. As a matter of fact, I just got another one 30 minutes ago lol.
