    Just got pwned by Lou Kosac HITs. Basically I had to tag a webpage with the various businesses listed (all done in the mturk interface). In some cases, the tags were already there, and in others, I tagged them correctly and found as many as I could. I did 40 of these (@ $0.10 each), and he cleared 32, but rejected 8. So now my percentage is under 95, which substantially reduces my ability to earn. I even had to email the guy to finally get paid. Just figured I'd warn you guys about this one...be careful.

    this is why I didn't touch these. They have NO instructions and I messaged him saying that I would like some instructions and he didn't message me back at all...so not worth it to me.

    All I can say to this is that we were all "guests" at one point. I think that even I am showing up as a guest still because the site kicks my login out if I sit idle for too long. Something to keep in mind, since I leave this thread open in my browser while I am at work all day.

    Also, I came to post the reminder to the music and geography studies I posted yesterday, but I see most of you beat me to them!

    Good luck everyone! Back to work for me...

    Yeah that one went pretty quick, I always try to update TO, when I take a risk like this, hopefully all's well that ends well.

    I did it too. Would have completed it sooner, but got distracted by the confused fluffy ball of cuteness that I want to steal.

    Scratch that. He didn't clear 32, he rejected 8, and the others are still pending. What can I do if he rejects...well, all of them?

    No, Jaime's solid...only problem right now is it's taking at least a minute to get these codes to generate.

    All of mine got approved, don't think he was super strict with accuracy either.
    It can be a pretty subjective HIT.

    And I got maxed-out once again.
