Description of problem: Not sure this is a problem or not, but since this is a “pilot,” I thought I would report in case it is a bug. The first time I clicked on the option to see “up to 30 observations” the screen said (something like) “no matching observations.” Since then, every day it shows the above pictured screen. Maybe that means there are no matching observations for me, but I wasn’t sure if something was broken since I have never had the option since that first day to see any observations.

Not a bug imo, I still receive the “up to 30” link and I know others who do too.
I guess the system simply does not have observations from new users that it thinks is relevant to your experience/knowledge based on what you have previously id’d and where.

This makes sense as it is currently the time of year with the lowest new user rates.

Yes. I just wasn’t sure since I haven’t had any obs come up ever…and since this was a pilot, I didn’t know if it could be a bug.

BUT, lo and behold, I was logged out tonight and when I logged back in, there were observations there for me to check. So hooray.
