    I'm fairly new to mturk, and since I stay at home with my little boy, I've been trying to make some "hey, look, I'm helping financially!" money. So far, I've gotten 1,144 approved hits with 5 legitimate rejections (boo). However... I ran across Wildfire Interactive this morning and have, so far, put in 146 of their $0.05 hits. Currently there are 13,944 available.

    The TO reviews direct you to someone named "Stephanie Sy", and the reviews look good! I just hope I don't crash my approval rating with this requester. This is the first big batch of decent paying HITs that I've found and I want to take advantage of it. :)

    I'll let everyone know what happens... I'm wary of continuing, but I don't want to miss out. Catch 22!

    Thanks! And good luck to you! So far I've done 205.... and the hit availability is down to 5,453, so it looks like a ton of people are doing the work!

    Need a few mor good reviews on the TO to take her a reputable requester....I hop she doesn't take majority answers for approval as the criterion for accuracy...

    They look simple enuff but i have a feeling there eather majority rules or another string attachted.. @ 5 cents for that LITTLE ammount of work seems a little too good to be true.. personaly ive avoided them since theres only 2 TO rankings up and neather of them have made mention of actully getting paid yet..

    I was wondering the same after I started doing them because they were SUPER easy and 5 cents. I dunno, I did a few just to test out the waters.. around 70 I think. I'll feel like a big fat arse if they all get rejected LOL

    We shall see... I'm playing the waiting game right now, having had submitted 221 hits. :rolleyes: If they're all rejected, I'll take a big hit to my approval rating, and it'll drop to somewhere around 80%. Yowza. But, I have terrible luck finding mass amounts of hits that I can work on without reaching a limit (CrowdFlower....) so I just categorized as accurately as I could, and can now just hope for the best!

    In the mean time, I think I'll lurk around Oscar Smith hits to try and boost my approval numbers, just in case!

    I did a few hundred of these and I also felt there was something a little dodgy about them.. They were too easy to pass up though and since i've got 40000 approved hits and like 100 rejections i can afford to absorb a few rejections before it hurts me which is nice =P

    I was VERY hesitant on this one. As some of said, 5 cents for such a small amount of work seems too good to be true... plus I worry that they will just reject if you selected a different category than the majority...

    That being said, I got desperate today and churned out 150 of them. Hoping for the best on this one.

    Hi everyone,
    I copied and pasted my post from another thread but the feeling is the same. I'll wait for the pending results to come in before I write a review on TO.

    I did only 10 hits for Stephanie Sy 3 days ago, and they are still pending. I was scared to do more without a review on TO. I noticed that Wildfire Interactive has the exact same hit, just like Lana said..I took a chance and did a few more but I'm also hoping I don't get burned. The hits seem fairly easy, almost too easy for .05/each compared to other hits that take a lot longer for .02/hit. Here's to hoping...Taking a sip of my Corona...

    Great to hear. If all of mine get approved, I will definitely be keeping this requester on my radar for any future hits.
