Can't Find Good HITs? 9/26

I hate these things so much, and even more now that they've made them so hard to read. You'd think after 45,000+ approvals they wouldn't make me do them anymore. At the VERY LEAST they should have the option for requesters to turn off the capitcha for selected workers they trust.

 

Anyone bold enough to do this? No TO.

Transcription requires me to shut off my music, so I only do it as a last resort. Well, not quite LAST resort.

 

Guess it's time for bed since its all gone so quiet nite yall!

 

Night fellow turkers

 

What is this? It's barely lunch time! I'm only at $37 today!

Night night

 

Okay I need some Happy Fish advice, how often when you mail/submit, does it work out?

 

I'm at $23 and every bodies numbers are always double than what I got. What am I doing wrong? lol

 

Probably close to 75% of the time. Even when I get rejected on the first one, I usually am able to do the HIT again when it's fixed.

 

All it takes is a big HIT or two. Half of my $37 is from two hits.

 

I accepted this and then returned it. The first audio was over 45 minutes, and there were 7 audio links. I didn't even bother looking at the rest. That's beyond ridiculous!

 

Don't feel bad, I did almost $18 today... and that is a pretty good day for me.

 

Just did the 'mark head nodes' HIT. Another one that makes you go "huh??".
Anyway, i'm off to bed.

good luck to all off you in the night shift!

 

8 dollar survey if you haven't done it yet - Stanford Phonetics Lab -
Give us the first word you can think of!

gone

 

behavioral lab has a 2 part study

 

First part took 5 minutes for .50. Part two supposedly 1.50.

 

They're probably good for it. Never have any problems with them.

 

It seems the day was a lot more active than the night. I did $33.58 so far today so I'm really happy with that, but I was hoping for a couple more hours of good HITs. I'm not finding much on my own right now, maybe a little later it'll pick up again.

 

I never find many good hits at night.

 

Woo! I was trying to get to $35 before the end of the night and made it to $34.99 with about 10 minutes left. I found a $.25 survey that said 10-15 minutes and got it submitted with less than 15 seconds left, pushing me to $35.24 for the day. Definitely one of my better days I've had.
