I know this has been discussed but i don't remember what consensus we all came too; when doing 5's, what do you do when the description and the image are completely different items? I have been answering based on the description. C to the J @C to the J Vanyanka @Vanyanka and @anyone else who does them.
95% sure we are supposed to base it on the description.
I think it might be in the instructions.

I've been basing it on the description but I'd trust Kerek @Kerek's (or pretty much ayone's) answer more than mine.

i usually answer based on the title (and i guess now the description) and not the picture
Same. It's kind of funny that their system seems to give you options based on picture though. At least it seems like to me. I'd think keyword recognition would be a lot easier than image recognition.

The categories used to be generated based on the description changed to the picture just a couple months ago.

But, some of the options presented based on the pictures are hysterical and make them a bit more tolerable!

(That also tanks my hourly rate as I spend time laughing instead of clicking and submitting.)

How many HITs do you guys usually do for a new R? I get the whole numbers and not falling below a certain % and all, but I know everyone varies in their decisions.

If anyone wants to share, I'd be really appreciative :) Sometimes I don't know if I'm being too careful or screwing myself by not taking enough risks.
For me, a new req. gets enough to bring me halfway to 99%. I know numbers don't help but, this is the rule I follow. Everyone has different risk levels. Mine change a bit, depending on the HIT. More pay= higher risk.:)

Thanks, Jerami @Jerami. Do you calculate that based on how many total you have pending or without pending? I have so many pending, and they have always paid, but I don't want to take shit for granted!

99% usually but I've gone to 98% for a few batches that seemed to be really good. So never below 98% for me.

MTS sort of does that for you now on the dashboard - it says what your percentage will be if everything pending is approved or rejected, and what numbers you would need to fall under a 99% rating
