So, I totally knew it wouldn't work but eh...since we don't know what does work I figured an email to them wouldn't hurt. This is their reply, (the standard one, I think)

What's the best hourly wage script?
A calculator?

I don't use one. I will usually do a few hits, to get the hang of them, then I will time myself doing 10 to get an hourly wage.

But if you mean for the whole day? I don't do that, it would probably be depressing

I've never used one before, but I see people talking about "x hit/batch is x/hour" so I thought they used a script. Figured I'd try it out ... but you're right, it might be depressing. Lol

Whenever I mention an hourly wage, it is because I calculated it manually.
