@ekkirksey Unfortunately, it's a James Billings. Got bored waiting for better stuff, and gotta make at least a few pennies somehow (plus get my approved numbers up). I've tried the refresh and such, and it didn't seem to help. So I just click the button on the HIT page about it being a bad survey and tell 'em what went wrong.

Rough morning. Can't find much to do. I'm ready to start the new year grind but tumble weeds don't pay the bills.

But they do cause traffic jams...tumbleweeds that is ?

It might take the week or so for things to pick back up, but you never know maybe there will be an early January uptick. So much happens this time of year, budgeting, planning, off for the holiday's... And everything else you can think of for requester's. It is just that time of the year, but I believe it will be a big year for Mturk and gig work overall. We just have to hope "cause" pushes/laws do not negatively impact things, like "pay all gig workers $100 an hour..."

Ah yeah you might be out of luck on that one. Those surveys sometimes redirect so many times I'm not too confident that it's going to land in the right place.

Howdy kids! This whole week feels like a long lazy weekend.

Yeah. Oh well, I still get a $0.07 bonus for reporting them. So not a terrible loss. I've made $1.47 today, with two pending jobs so far. There's still not a lot I qualify for, so to me that still seems like a lot. xD

Fair enough, gotta start somewhere! What do you use to search for HITs? Of course there's not much now since everyone's away for the holidays but I'm seeing a fair amount of stuff pop up in my scrapers that don't require many approved HITs.

I use the MTurk Suite hit finder. When I see something interesting, I check it out. Currently I'm still under 100 approved hits, but trying to get the numbers up. Trying hard to not risk rejections while I'm doing so, because I know that can take a pretty good chunk out of my rating right now.
