hit monitor> turk master

I have not heard that name in a long time.

you have to make sure that you're adding the watcher from the new site.

I thought I was. I opened a hit in my queue and clicked on the watch this hit button, added it to TM and for some reason it loads on the old site and thus doesn't run on TM. I feel stupid lol.

All i keep hearing this morning on overwatch is "Bill Bill Bill Bill". Now I cant stop thinking about Bill Nye....

Bill is spamming the hell out of that mLab Android study. Anyone done it? I've got one in my cue, but I'm not sure I want to fool with it.

TM always gave me too many PREs for me to get too deep into it. BUt when I used it, I used it to watch requesters. Then I stopped using it when I found out about hit monitor.

i only run one search at a time and rarely i use it to fill my queue for batches because it does that for me quicker than PC.

I have a question how many people who are not masters make a living with mturk.....I am new I only have about 9000 hits but I am just curious if people are able to make a living and how much they make on average and how many hits they have to do I am having trouble setting goals for myself and figuring out how to get there maybe I am just slow...but any tricks or success stories would be great I really need this to work

 

[GRR]

starting to think I may just wait till old site is down and new site is up..pcrazy does nothing and I cannot get turkmstr to come up even tho I dled itb

 

[Maria Tortilla]

Ok another quick $20, THEN I'll look at the new website.

 

[kryss]

I'm going to periodically update this post with relevant info today.

Take note of updates regarding MTS

Know bugs currently being fixed:

the cycler is broken in hit catcher
auto accept next hit
hit finder log

what i have noticed is that unless you are writing scripts yourself, it is difficult to "make a living" on mturk.

Turkmaster is equivalent to PandaCrazy not HF. You still need either HF or HS

I figured they werent the same but I'm finding more on Turkmaster than I am on the new HF

I started it yesterday. I don't think it's going to be so bad though I have noticed my phone using more power than usual.

what do you search for with the 1 search?

I don't use FF, so I'm not sure what works there and what doesn't.

Have you considered switching to chrome for today and using MTS? That might help you out for the day, til everything gets sorted out.
