Can't Find Great HITs? Turkin' Tuesday 5/21

Some people work all day, others turk all day. Today I spent 10+ hours at my regular job, which cut into my turking time.

 

It said it would take 10 minutes so I waited until 10 minutes before I submitted it.

 

I mentioned it in my answer, I think it'll be good.

 

Small air conditioner would be awesome... I know that feel when there's no ventilation and its blazing in your room.. Neva again!

 

$56.42 for the day been a nice week so far.

 

I didn't notice anything weird.

 

I think I just found something worse than the Ethan Solomon and Talent Search HITs from earlier...Alvarez Lab.

(But at least it's different.)

 

I had two windows open during the Talent Search HIT earlier. Submitted the wrong code to them. I e-mailed them and am hoping they show mercy.

So, uh, since it's dead, anyone wanna help me figure out how to export my HIT db? I click the "export to CSV" thinggy but then I can't figure out which program to open it in......

 

They were pretty responsive earlier in the day, I sent them a note and they got back to me in less than an hour.

 

Try using Excel or uploading it to Google Drive if you use that.

Edit: Where's the file located? I checked the box and updated but don't know where to find it.

 

I'm having the same issue. It downloads but I can't find it. Tried just opening through excel and it didn't work.

 

I did this a few days ago, and was able to figure out where the csv file was on my drive, but got tired of seeing if my crapped out version of excel, or whatever OpenOffice has, can actually open it (I got bored after waiting around 30 seconds).

What I did instead was just open the 'pending overview'/'requester overview'/etc. in my browser (chrome) and select 'print', then 'save as a .pdf file', so's i got a semi sucky pdf instead of an totally sucky csv.

Hope this helps. Probably not of use to you if you want to see all those cells and such.

 

It doesn't *seem* to actually create a csv file unless you select one of the 'overview' options.

 

slow night?

 

worn out from those talent research

 

Using FF, but was able to save it as a webpage. Thanks.

 

Really Gaddy, you want me to write an article at midnight? It better be about flying zebras or something cool like that.

Nope used cars, oh well, I can do that, too.

Will make it $60 for the day as snagged it just before midnight really.
