why does he hate Indiana!

i can do them but i am incapable to beating the system. I only do verifications. I cannot create. ugh

 

[ShadowJack]

You still get paid if you don't beat the system. I beat it from time to time with phrasing. Beating it just gives you a bonus. The thing says you can earn double but I usually just get 10 or 20 cents when I do.

how many times do you fail before that?

It keeps making me try

 

[ShadowJack]

10 times per attempt, I probably get a fooled system 1 out of every 10. [edit 10 different attempts, not the 10 tries on 1 attempt)

The neither true or not true ones on a two line sentences are the toughest.

Usually I will fool it with phrasing. Like say it says do a correct statement about a saxophone player, I will refer to the saxophone as a woodwind or something like that and it tricks the system.

Yea Amazon can't force anyone to undo a rejection.
Only thing they do is send a form letter to them just like they did to you.
