I thought it wasn't bad after the first few rounds cause then I started remembering the answers without having to do the math each time.

I wonder if there are different versions? Mine was a cakewalk after the first two blocks.

It's in the Top 5 of the most tedious thing's I've done on MTurk and I do Zoltars.

I've actually used the commands to empty the clipboard and the clipwait command before, they were useful. This should help with issues I've had where the script sometimes goes wonky in the middle of using it and stuff gets pasted in the wrong field or other issues. I always chalked it up to momentary system lag but couldn't figure out a way around it other than adding longer sleep delays between commands.

I zero out all variables after each use... that way there is never an unwanted value in any of them and I can readily identify when something has gone wrong. It adds basically no discernible time to the execution of your hotkeys and cleans everything up a lot.

Another useful command to look into is BlockInput... you can use it to stop keypresses/mouse clicks/mouse movement while a hotkey is actuating... when I started using it I reduced a lot of my own errors (like double presses of the key)

Dear MTurk,
I need lots of good batches and or juicy and easy surveys to salvage a decent PE for the week.
Please rain monies, and not just for me but everyone.
Thanks
