How about $50 worth of surveys within a week?
Let me be clear, I'm not taking any bet where the possible outcome of a week could involve me doing surveys. That's like asking YAHU @YAHU to behave. Or asking Bode "Emo Barry" Miller @Bode Miller not to be snarky. Asking catnapped @catnapped not to post his PE. Or asking Vanyanka @Vanyanka to be PG. Do you think Kerek @Kerek could go a week without posting red pandas, no. No. No.

OK. I'm not a complete noob. I've already done everything posted here since about 6:00. Most were disqual, but I panda'ed the rest. Caught 1


Not familiar with Reddit, I don't have time for other sites while turking, and I don't do social media at all.

OK. I've been trying our hits since about 5:30, skipped the first half of the day. Disqual or told there's nothing available from almost all of them. Couple of the surveys didn't like my age. Some others are on panda now, and for single hits, I date my pandas, so I can dump them later.
Ones I completed are part HS, part TM, part this forum. Using Notifier now, athough it misses Turker Nation and MTurk Forum.

I usually start Scraper at $4, do all I can, then work downward. Do all I can, turn off and turn on TM. Save the mindless ones for wee small hours.

Not working tomorrow, so will start early in the AM.
OK, see some issues right off the bat.

1) almost all survey HITs, especially high paying ones will show none available. That's what PANDA is for.
2) If you are setting your Scraper that high you're missing all the real work. There are loads of HITs that come through scraper that don't make it to the forums for whatever reason. Scraper should be running at all times you are working at probably a 3-4 second refresh. When it dings you go to that tab and grab the HIT or add it to your PANDA tool. Any time you're working and not using scraper simultaneously is money lost.

Edit: Are you dumping PANDAs every day? Don't do that. And what kind of stuff are you "saving"?

what do you suggest you set the amount to? I've got mine currently set at $1 and it's been hitting alright especially since i've not really had a lot of time to pay strict attention. i may hit $20 PE before i call it a day.

Good evening all. Sorry to bother, but quick question..has Joe Lo changed his pandas? Or are they the same? I have some set up for wall streets/Joe Lo but never get any for the past several weeks. Do they post at different times now? I used to get one around 8:16 - 8:30 AM. Or did they stop altogether? Thank you.

I usually do $1 at 4 seconds if I am running a lot of PANDAs unless it's super slow and then I might drop to $.50. I am *not* a FT turker so the time I have during most days I opt to maximize with higher paying HITs grab smaller HITs that are posted on the forum as I see them. Someone who works more hours may have a better strategy there. I also used HIT Finder because I think the logging function is the literal best.

edit: Caturk @Caturk should probably set lower than $1 since she gets screened out so often and needs to maximize opportunities for work.

1) I panda those

2) start Scraper there on 2 seconds, then I move down to $2, $1, 50c, etc.
If Scraper is always on, I can't run TM. And new hits do stop appearing after about 10 PM. That's when I usually run TM, with all the batches checked. No good?

3) not dumping pandas every day. I give the singles a reasonable time, like a week, and I feel the really well-paying ones wouldn't stay up longer than that.
