    Aww thanks. I posted a BUTTLOAD up yesterday! GO GET THEM BEFORE THEY'RE GONE ( A lot of them were almost gone when I logged off earlier...

    Congrats. I love it when I hear about members getting stuff they want with money from mTurk! :D

    Oh, no! What happened?

    Thank you! It's just one of the vets I know lost her home today and I click every day... so I just thought it might be nice. I'm gonna try and make something to send her today (Food and spare cash mostly.)

    I'm new to turking so I was wondering how everybody keeps track of HITS they do? I know you can go into your account and look but I see that there are alot of people that do thousands basically, how would you sift thru to see if you done it or not? Just curious, so far I don't have so many I can do that but it's getting harder. When it says do not repeat, I have gotten into HITS and it see real familiar and I worry I'm not gonna get paid.

    What I do is I email the requester and look through my previous HITs. You can also go browse the Scripts section of the forum to see the beta scripts to solve this issue. :D

    Hope this helps!

    Something with my bank didn't mesh, so they slapped us with a huge deposit and then wondered why I couldn't come up with an extra 500 in 2 days. Seriously PG&E?

    We don't really get blackouts in the boonies unless it is snowing. Or someone hits a line trying to miss the deer...

    Those jerks! Complain to customer service/HR. Just keep asking for a supervisor, which is my dad's go-to strategy.

    Just to note, there is a tiny little link at the bottom that lets you install a firefox plugin instead, if that helps.

    I couldn't get the $3 survey to work with firefox, but I did on IE.

    Now I can't submit it. I am waiting for an email back

    Update: Emailed me back, waiting on dummy HIT to post

    He replied to my message quickly, but I'm waiting on if he's going to put up a my-turk-id-only hit so I can get paid.

    Strange as it may sound, I keep a running tally going with every hit completion.

    Yep, works only in my Firefox browser, I noticed that to.

    ME - I'm planning on calling later. It's too early now and I'm not in the mood.

    You guys do these so fast, I am going to start cutting my Estimated Time of Completion (ETC, new abbreviation?) in half!

    He verifies the data first, then emails and posts the dummy hit. If you look under his name he has SEVERAL dummy hits already posted.
