    Hopefully. It was frustrating to miss out on so many of the good batch HITs that required >1000!

    Copy Text HITs

    Hey all....

    I've done the Copy Text Inc. HITs and have not gotten a rejection. They have gotten a bad rap on TO. They don't pay real well and I'm not happy about that but it is another low paying batch HIT that you REALLY have to read the instructions for. I know of another member - a REALLY nice lady, who has done thousands.

    I definitely recommend the HIT for those that want to increase their numbers but read the instructions and don't do more than you are comfortable with! Take these the same way you would do Classify This or ProductRnR. I've had no rejections from them either and they pay poorly too - but they are batch HITs that if you follow the instructions and return what is ambiguous you should be fine... Get your numbers up and fill in the slow times...

    Just my opinion... :p

    DO NOT DO THESE IF YOU ARE JUST CLICKING!!! They watch close and will reject bad work - but good work is always approved - I've never had a rejection!

    I have some issues with them. They rejected me and said I did bad work, when I asked for verification of that I never heard back at all. I remembered their hit, so I was pretty put out. I take time on stuff like that.

    hmmm I did a $2.00 one by the same requester and so far the survey looks the same... I didn't see anything about only doing one hit, what would you guys do?
    oh never mind.... survey just got different.

    If the video you have to watch and the questions after that are the same as last time, I personally would return it, not just because of the risk of rejection but also not to muck up the researcher's data!

    It's a subforum under the mturk forum.

    Thanks, I never would have noticed. I wonder what the new "resources" forum is for?

    Quick question TOTALLY off the top of my head. It didn't come from a survey that I did already complete so you don't have to worry about cheating for me. Like I said, it DIDN'T come from that so stop worrying.

    If it takes 5 machines 5 minutes to make 5 widgets then would it take 100 machines ONE minute to make 100 widgets or would it take 100 machines FIVE minutes to make 100 widgets.

    That's always confused me.

    5 minutes.


    5 machines/5 min per 5 widget
    1 machine/5 min per 1 widget
    100 machines/5 min per 100 widgets

    5 minutes. Each machine makes one widget, and each machine takes 5 minutes to do so. So since both the widgets and machines increased proportionally, the time stays the same!

    edit: beaten to it :p

    100 machine would take 5 minutes to make 100 widgets :) Each machine takes 5 minutes to make 1 widget.
    EDIT - wow really beaten to it!

    Thanks for the advice, yeah I don't want to screw up anyone's research, but as soon as I saw the video I knew I hadn't done it before :)
