    By the way everyone, if you run into the issue where your Pending HITs script shows a figure that is way off, I finally fixed mine. You just have to clear your cookies for your web browser and that seems to wipe the pending HITs stats clean. You get the Pending HITs $?.?? when you sign back in like you've just installed the script for the first time. Just click the $?.?? link and it will recalculate after a while (depending on how many pending you have). Worked like a charm for me.

    if anyone's having issues with foreign language sites in the classify this hits, if you right click and view page source and look near the top for the <title> tags, i've been copying that. hope it's what they're looking for with '[name] of page'

    I am also getting the python script error. I was wondering if anyone else was getting the message. I emailed the requester as well; no response yet though.

    Maybe not the right topic, but if you do HITs that involve searches. Sign up for Bing rewards. For every 2 searches you get 2 point and with the points you can get gift cards, xbox codes, starbucks cards etc. I do prefer Google, but I do 30 searches on Bing just for the points :)

    Yeah I only do a few at a time, and if its a weird looking page I usually just return it. But I need a good hit to beef up some numbers

    Hey guys,

    I emailed Michael Spack who has email his up and he is trying to take the Masters qualification off. Should I invite him to the forum and start a thread for him? He seems like he will be a great requester.

    I stopped after 2 because I came back here and saw what sasquatch posted. Some of us got lucky this weekend with the whole mass rejection deal. The requester fixed that and we got our stuff reversed. I'm not expecting that to happen everytime a mass rejection occurs so i'm being extra careful.
    Or paranoid might be the word lol

    I do that with Swagbucks. About every 2 weeks a $5 Amazon gift card is credited. I'm going to check out Bing rewards though. Might be a better deal - thanks.

    Its definitely not a better deal. I do both and SwagBucks definitely pays better than Bing Rewards. Just do both if you have the time. :cool:

    They said the same thing to me. I've given up on those HITs, they're so hit-or-miss.
