Hi all. I'm new around here just been lurking.

I've been having trouble findings hits. I use the main mturk site and hit scraper. I also use use the panda crazy script to panda hits that I may have missed. However, there have been times when no new hits show up in scraper while I see people finding HITs that never pop up at all for me. Is there a script that I am missing or am I just not using mturk correctly. No need to spill your secrets but, I feel like I just need some pointers at the moment so I don't spend like an hour on here without actually finding any work.

Thanks!

what settings do you have hit scraper at? if the timer's too high, maybe you're just missing things that pop up

We would have been the best of friends.

I think we were, if you're as much like the person I'm thinking of as I think you are.

If you ever get a bank charge, always call and ask "I understand the fee, but is there anything you can do for me today? I'm trying to watch my budget very carefully."

If that doesn't work, just yell at them until they are sobbing and their manager takes over the call.

It all depends on what your scraper/finder settings are? What is your search interval? What is the monetary value you are looking for? How many pages are you scraping?

I am pretty sure there are some tutorials on youtube for scraper and I know there is a lot of information for Panda Crazy here:

I have the search interval set to 15 seconds and the min reward set to 0.50 sorted by latest and scraping the first page.

Thanks for the info. I'll go ahead and look up some tutorials.

Start by lowering your interval to about 3 seconds and see if that helps out.

15 seconds is waaaay too long. I'll tell you that much right now.
