Not enough time to complete batch before batch expires.

Daniel Jack Pugmire said: Please give me additional time to complete batch before it expires. I had 4 images & 4 entrees to each image, I am feeling good to complete 1 entry in each image before I go to bed at night, I am busy with family & work & some of the entrees take a while to decipher, because they are written in German. I think I have tried 4 different batches, but have never been able to complete them because they expire too fast.

However for the most part I believe the expiry times for most projects on FS Indexing is more than adequate.

I think that you thought the same thing. I should have read through your response, but that appears to be what you were thinking, too.

I agree that archaic handwriting can be a real task to decipher what was actually written. It takes a lot of skill and I commend you for your efforts.

The idea of increasing the expiry for those kinds of projects is a good one.

Seriously! Why would a batch need to be completed in five days when it requires a couple of hours sometimes. For a working person with family at home, this seems silly. Give people at least two or three weeks., please.
