    Yeah, one time I got 42 rejections. I thought I would try to give it another go since it's been awhile since those rejections, but I still ended up with 2/20 rejections, even though I used model's names in pretty much every title.

    I got 1 warning email from Netmsi for using the word "amateur" too many times. I've also got a small batch from the 15th that hasn't paid out yet. Never got a rejection though, I just think they take too long to pay. The ones who pay within 24 hours have me spoiled.

    The Google Personalization one just approved. I was a little worried about that one but it approved fast.

    I have a feeling the rest of this week is going to be kind of slow due to Thanksgiving holidays. Hope I'm wrong.

    So, I know many people fell just a few points shy of qualifying for the hubpages hits. I finally got an email back from the requester and they were very polite. I invited them to the happy little family we have here on the forums.

    Here is the reply to the qualification question:

    "We have a special panel of people who carefully read and rate articles. Your score is a measure of how similar your ratings are to our panel's ratings. We need to maintain a consistent standard for the benefit of our authors, so we're forced to find people who all rate very similarly to our panel. If your score is below 172, then that means that your ratings weren't quite similar enough to our panel's ratings for our needs.

    Thanks for trying our HITs. We might introduce some new types of HITs in the future, and we'd be happy to have you work on those if and when we do."

    Okay, I just have to say the qual test is pretty awesome for using Hitchhiker's Guide AND Monty Python quotes for a question.

    Doing them purely for my numbers. The guy approves within 5 minutes, which is nice I guess.

    i tried one of these thinking they'd be like crowdsource. my hit had like 20 sentiments. i finished it and said no more. every now and then CF has a good hit, but that's maybetwice a month.

    i wish schneider didn't make his hit qual 5k. i hate when others have to pay for cheaters :( if you have 5k try it out. he raised the price to $0.22 a hit
