    So did I. The first one was easy, so I thought, yeah, good one. But after that......

    I'm never going to do Smartsheet again! 2 rejections, and I KNOW they have no problem giving rejections so I only submit when I am 1000% positive that I have the right answer. Did two last week, and both rejected. Well....F-it.

    randomly going through pending hits... everything beyond a week ago = carto swap...

    is it weird that out of some really big batches of hits like jamie arguello or two lakes, i'll have 99% approved and one or two still pending?

    I've never done anything for them. I see such mixed opinions of them and I'm really rejection-shy!

    Is PPC going very slow for anyone else who's doing them?

    Just a heads up, I tried to do this but one of the pages took me to a youtube video that wouldn't play in that window and I couldn't get past that page. Returned it. Let me know if anyone has better results.

    ok i'm going to return another goldsmith in 2 minutes!

    i'm going to write some freaken amazing reviews for this. they're most likely going to get rejected or we won't won't get paid though LOL!! I emailed them for the 4th link that i was missing and showed them the 3 i had, and they emailed me back with 4 totally different links and one looked shady but they're nice about it so that makes me feel that there's a... 1% chance this is going to go well. nvm make that a 20% chance since they responded.

    they're a go-between for their clients, so they duck any responsibility for rejections and aren't responsive to contact from turkers... definitely an at-your-own-risk proposition. i've done hundreds of some batches for them, never been rejected but i feel i may have been more lucky than anything else, and i try to avoid them when possible... i think they just rejected a ton of people today for a recent hit...

    Argh, I was doing the PPCs because I try to always have at least 100 pending, but they've been approving as I've been doing them.
