:eek: I'm so close to Bedford!
I went to Worthington for work once. I think the closest place to stay the night was in Bloomington, so we worked all day to get done and drove back to Illinois to stay the night on our way home rather than stay there. Only time I've been to that state.

Question: My coworker also has been doing some mturking. He has been getting "sorry, an unexpected error occurred" on surveys. After he reboots or logs in and out he can do one survey. Then this error shows up again. Any ideas?

I'm thinking he should delete the cookies. Or eat them. Whatever works.

I just about took a job in Bedford last year :wave2: We'd have almost been neighbors! But, there was some logistic issues with family and stuff.
Bring a baby and you can live on the farm with me

Yeah. Dats cookies. If he can open the survey link in incognito it's def cookies.

Make sure he backs everything up from his scrapers before he clears them!
Thanks. He's not up to any type of scraper or panda yet. Just normal turkin' But, I'll have him try the incognito mode.

That would be a good starting step. What browser? I use Chrome and rarely have any issues.

I meant to ask, what kinds of HITs have you been doing to make all that money? I still haven't found the right combination for me to keep me at a decent hourly rate. Sometimes I do well but it always falls below $6 an hour by the end of the day and I'm nowhere my goal, which is around what you've been making per day.

He is in Chrome. I mainly do surveys, guessing I average 1-3 hours daily depending on how much work I have at my real job. Use panda and hit forker at home (still a newbie, so I need to find out what I should add or do next) and nothing but mturk at work. I average $20 day, and am amazed at those $100+ daily people. Today was just a weird good day for me, may make it over $50.

I’ll tell you how you make money on mTurk:

1) time. it’ll take a little bit of time
2) early on get some cushon ratio wise
3) explore different batches, etc (get use to what you like and don’t like)

4) do everything within reason (sometimes red TOs only have 1 reviews, etc)

5) “eat your queue” aka always empty your queue if possible via doing everything in it. always eat your queue. force yourself to empty that queue. Treat yourself to a snack afterwards and re-fill the queue again. repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat

6) put in the time

Thanks, you must work harder, faster, and smarter than me. I think I'm going to wear my fingers out clicking so much. I'll keep working at it and try to get more efficient. :)

Thanks! I need to work on some more safe numbers HITs, which should help me get faster too. At only 1600 approved I get nervous with just 10 pending surveys, even though I never rush them.
