I've been out the loop all day. Woke up puking and felt sick all day. I've yet to complete 1 hit today.
You and I both. I need to make my monies. Unfortunately I'm a basketball fan so I'm distracted watching the NBA All Star game celebrations.
That was pretty decent. It took me 65 minutes or so. Compared to some of the others I've done, it was a gem.
Only done exactly 3 HITS today! That's the lowest since I started Turking! At least one of them was Heather Walters. Hope that pays out.
Well, in the midst of all this inaccessibility of the forums, perhaps it's time for humor. Gotta love the Crowdflower task descriptions: Description: This is a simple and clear task, and you will feel easy to complete it.
Nevermind, Links are always broken here. Denial of Service attack. Using botnets to knock out websites with massive amounts of bad requests, so good traffic can't get through.
Will certainly be looking forward to that. BTW didn't mean any harm in the PM remark. I just knew I had to leave for a while.
Is there a way to copy in CrowdSource hits? I was trying to knock out some of the Google URLs and it is insanely slow when you have to type everything out.
Survey by Hsuan-Ting Chen called "Complete an experiment about news reading and current issues". says it pays 1.50 but also tells you if you complete all parts, you get 2.00. has no TO but it was an interesting survey and I enjoyed it. Sorry I dont have the link. took me a little over 25 mins
Anyone have any knowledge of Steve Murch and transcribe a recipe hits? I did one and now when I try to click on the hits I get this "There are no more available HITs in this group. See more HITs available to you below." Does this mean my submission wasn't acceptable so I can't do any more?

I haven't ever seen that message. Try emailing him. But lately when I do them, when I try to submit after typing it up, it times out and then I have to retype it again and hope it submits or either return it.
I did one of those earlier too. It took so long I didn't try another one for now. Maybe later. I didn't have any problem submitting the hit.
I'm going to cover quite a bit of interesting stuff when I start writing. Note, you may hear people saying how badly they hate working for CrowdSource, Oscar, Redwood, etc. Don't ever think working for these requesters is a bad idea. I actually recommend it. If you plan on working on Mturk for a long time, it is safe to build a cushion and rack of as many of these mostly guaranteed approvals as you can. Over the years you will experience rejections, mass rejections, blocks, suspensions, etc. When my girl started her account, we never touched anyone but CF,CS,OSCAR, Redwood, Pac It, Matt Rubin, Venue Quality, and very few select others for the first 30,000 hits. Made it all the way to 30,000 before receiving a rejection. But along your journey you will learn there are ways of getting the rejections removed with the majority of requesters. At one time, my account had 99 listed rejections out of 200,000 now I'm down to 38 rejections just because I communicate with the vast majority of the requesters new and old to get a feel for them, while also giving them advice and just being polite and it goes a long ways needless to say.
You get that message anytime youve done all the HITs available for a particular batch. You get the message in a yellow box, right? Also, if you dont accept/view a HIT in time before another turker accepts it, you will get that message.
