Do we need to SIGN UP for an Account with Crowdflower in order to do the Human Tasks in the Daily Offers section?

I have done tasks for quite some time with no issues......but....today when I clicked on TASKS I got this error message:

Bummer

An error occurred.


Is anyone else getting this error message?
Do we now need to sign up for an account with Crowdflower in order to do Tasks from within FusionCash?

Thanks in advance :)

There are some tasks that will not allow you complete them unless you sign up. The beauty of it is that the sign-up process is not tedious. As per the error message, the same is displayed for me. I tried a different browser and it's still the same so I am assuming it's happening to most people if not all.

I have an account on the CrowdFlower site.  There are some advantages to having an account.  First, if you find issues/errors with a task, you can copy your worker ID and task ID, then navigate to their support forum.

I found it's a bit harder to find the forum now - first you need to access your dashboard (open the top black menu options on the task, click on your CrowdFlower user name, and select the dashboard option.  Once on your dashboard, go to that page's top black menu to find the "Get Support" button to access the forum.

They may have re-worked it this way so it is easier to credit people when a task has an error preventing them from successfully completing it.  I've noticed I've been getting more credits from some jobs that they are still working verification and test question bugs out of.

Another advantage is on your dashboard, it lists other sites you've accessed their tasks through, and you can set a preference that when you do get a bonus or credit - you can direct the bonus/credit to whichever site you want the money to go to.  So if you are nearing cashout on a particular site, you might want to flag that as your default site.

I have not gotten any spam after I signed up for the account either, so there's really nothing to lose.
