    Time for a new thread.

    It's a Saturday so don't expect much action on mturk.

    On that 1.65 political survey just posted, it says to copy and paste the "entire" message... not just the code right? I'm on the last page and that seems like an odd request. Never got that before from a survey.

    It says "Pleasse copy this entire message"

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this but I am new to working for turk. I have completed 60 hits so far but I am not sure which hits I should be doing other than the ones posted in here. Any advice for someone new to this is greatly appreciated.

    Welcome. This forum is going to be your best bet starting out. You will get a sense over time what is worth doing and what to avoid, but it's not something that you can pick up day one.

    First, if you are using Firefox or Chrome you need to get Turkopticon (TO) to look at the requester reviews. Just Google it and it should be the top result.

    Also note that since you are a new user to MTurk, you will be cut off from doing hits on the first 10 days after completing 100 hits. Just don't be alarmed when it says you can do anymore for now.

    download this plugin to see reviews of different requester.

    Try too do crowd flower and oscar hits to increase your approved hit count so that you can absorb more rejection.

    Don't lose heart in the first few days, once you get more than 1000 hits your earning potential will increase greatly.

    Since you are limited in the amount of hits you can do per day (100), then you are better off doing a higher percentage of surveys. For example, if you do 100 hits that pay .02 a hit, that's only $2 and then you can't do any more hits. But if you mix in $1 and $2 surveys, you can probably make between $10 and $20 per day.

    Another suggestion, make sure your hits come from requesters that don't reject work. Your approval percentage would go down real hard and fast if you do a bunch from a bad requester. Keep an eye on that by following this forum.

    I think it's after 10 days that your daily limit is ended.
