Apropos of nothing, I just found this gif of Dennis which seems to sum me up in one sentence.

These pay a little less, but the texts are a lot shorter.

my qual test for this still isn't graded and i can't redo it. so i can't do these but can do the 30c ones.

Howdy kids! Great thread idea @humbleturker. I've dealt with bulimia and depression. Sis has Asperger's and is bipolar. She stays with me once a week to get out of my mom's house. Many friends with addiction etc etc. Always good to get the darkness out by talking about it. Thoughts with all who have had similar problems. :mallow

Same.

1, correct for skips

I have correct for skips checked, but what does that mean anyway?

I was going to say that I don't remember taking THIS qualification test, but if you got the same message I probably did.

I think if you hover over it it'll have a nice explanation. (like hover over the check box.)

I would try and explain it but I'd just confuse both of us.

It means it will scrape as many pages to get however many number of HITs you have it set to scrape. Best thing to do is scrape one page at 50 and not correct for skips. If you have it set and 1- 3 seconds, you're not going to miss anything. Correct for skips will scrape a lot of pages and give you more exceeded errors.

Anorexia, depression and PTSD here. My stepdad has Asperger's, too. Always good to talk and raise awareness that we're not all in straitjackets

Yeaaaah, but you said WHEN it falls on a business day, implying it could ever be on a day other than Thursday.

hey! we have a black president. anythings possible. besides... before Abraham Lincoln made it officially on thursdays, Thanksgiving has been celebrated nationally on and off since 1789, after a proclamation by George Washington... according to Wikipedia...

so... thats what I meant when I wrote that. Its been heavy on my heart lately that we forget about the times Thanksgiving wasn't on a thursday. Its something we all need to remember.

So, how likely are these Pew hits to reject? I'm finding that I've had to make very few changes. Is this normal? I'm worried about doing something wrong.

I don't see anywhere on hit scrapper where you can mark the number of hits you want scrapped. Maybe I have an older version?

Here is a great video guide to HIT Scraper from @Tjololo. He tells you what each of the settings are for and how to use them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0T_VzGDBT_M

"results per page" it's on the top line
