So sleepy but I need to make up for how badly I've done the rest of the week

I had installed few scripts but they are not working:
- HIT Scraper WITH EXPORT
- JR Mturk Panda Crazy

Even reinstalled but they are still not working, any ideas what to do?

And also what should I do if there is no approval or rejection for the hit? (been 15 days now)

Is UnSpun Opinions a good requester? They pay 0.50, but it takes me about twenty minutes to complete. That's only $1.50 an hour. I just hope that they're not very picky or tricky.

Can you be more specific about what "not working" is? I might be able to help...

On the tampermonkey icon, it shows number of scripts running which is only 1 instead of 3

They pay twice the amount, $1 for the same exact HIT if your location is in UK. It's not worth if your location is in US.

Both of those need to run in their own tab/window:

Have you thought about starting out with MTS instead? It has everything you need to get started.

You don't have to do anything if the requester is refusing to take any actions. The HITs will auto approve in 30 days. Personally, I would prefer it if the auto approve was at 1 week, but whatever.

You're right. It's only worth it, when there are no HITs available. But the other side to that is, HITS will most likely become available, when you're in the middle of that particular HIT. I know you can just open up another window and accept, but I am easily confused, have a bad memory, and usually forget that I have another HIT waiting for me.

I see. The only time I see HIT look like that, is when I'm on this site. Otherwise, it just looks like this:

Various scripts have an "export" feature that makes those. That one's from my Hit Forker script. It looks like this: https://pastebin.com/raw/Lk7FCuKn
