    My Experience with some Requesters - will help someone here for doing the HITs.

    1.Oscar Smith

    I usually do the Oscar Smith hits. I never have got any HIT get rejected from him and I really feel very happy even when his single HIT are available. I know the payment for the job is just $0.02 per HIT, that makes some people not to do the Hits. But in my mind is to achieve the $0.05 HITs from him as soon as possible and I am claiming for that to him. Whenever I send mail telling about why I can't do the $0.05 HITs, he will reply, with in 24-48 hrs., that he is allowing to the workers who achieved a quality score of 90 and also have submitted to him 400 HITs. Anyway I know one day I can do those type of ($0.05 )HITs.

    When I am in doubt in the entries for the field I will ask him and he will kindly reply, that all made him my favorite requester forever. No matter whoever come with a big money HIT, he will be my favorite requester forever in Mturk.

    Ok will continue... writing about others...when getting some feedbacks...

    (to be continued...)

    What is your accuracy score? You should have an accuracy not less than 90% to get the private requester qualification. One of my on line friend already got this qualification.

    On the second day that I've been doing Oscar Smiths', my quality score was at 94 (after about 80 HITs). On the third day, my score went down to 92. I didn't think anything of it. On the fourth day, it went down to 90. So, I googled something along the lines of "Why is my score going down with Oscar Smiths on mturk?" and someone on one of the other threads said it might be because the info I provided didn't quite match up with the "correct" info on those super out-of-focus cards. So I decided to RETURN HITS wherein the cards were out-of-focus or had a lot of missing info. And now the score is at 84.

    So, my question is if you can't return hits as your score will certainly take a dive, nor can you give the most info you can make out of extremely obfuscated cards, what the heck are you supposed to do because either way your score will never ever increase, lest you get a sequence of cards that can be read?

    If it is fuzzy just Submit with the info you can read, it's returning hits that will make your score going down and failing the verification hits. The verification hits are not fuzzy, if you do a lot of hits you will see them coming often.

    For the case of Quality score going down I asked my favorite Requester, Oscar Smith and he replied that

    Hope this will help someone here :)

    2) Requester Name : Purchease SAS :
    Hit name : Copy text from images. Symply type the text shown. (The word symply is like that no typos.. :) )

    Good requester. He approved my two HITs giving me a warning like the one below. That will tell how generous he is. But, I will be careful next time when attempting his HITS. Some Hits come up with not clear images from which I can't even guess a single letter (I am telling about the Requester HIT named : :Copy text from images. Symply type the text shown")



    Also please note that I got all the HITs approved even when I had given black HITs, When I seen the warning I send the Requester an Email asking about the not clear images for which he replied positively, as given below. So my experiment with Requester went a success.

    Hope this all will help someone here.

    3. Requester Name Real Estate Research
    HIT name : Determine if a house is for sale

    A great requester to go with . Because of this GREAT requester I could make some good $$ money... Yes, no rejection so far. We want to just tell a house is for sale or not. Just that much and will get $0.04 and too with fast approvals..No big waits... for the approval. Really appreciating all who told me about this requester's name and specially thanking Nadiya Sis.. for me to telling about these HITs when they are arrived with a bulk hits of 10K+ and more and more... came... :)

    For doing this HIT you will have to pass a qualification test from this requester. Also beware that the "retake delay" for the test is "52 weeks + 1 day". You will have to get a score more than 79 that is if you get 80 and more then you are safe to do the HITs, and if you are failed and got below 80 and less then you will have to wait for a loooooooooooong time... yes that is 52 weeks. I never seen that much big time.

    For getting the qualification go here --> https://www.mturk.com/mturk/searchb...rQualityQualification&minReward=0.00&x=14&y=8
    After getting/passing the qualification (i.e. getting a score of 80 or more) search for "Real Estate Research" and request for the other two qualification and believe me they are got as soon as you request for it... and do the great HIT.
    Ok .. good luck!

    It is not actually called Master Qualification, it is called as Trusted Worker Qualification.

    The thing will sum up like this

    Regular Oscar HITs --> $0.02 per HIT

    Trusted Worker Qualified HITs --> $0.05 per HIT ( No extra work, just as simple as like the Regular HITs, but only available to TWQ guys )
