@jklmnop do you realize how lucky you are? like, powerball lucky? Tevin Coleman woke up this morning. Shoved his escort out of bed, brushed the cocaine from his nose, looked into a cracked mirror and said, "I'm gonna have the best game of my career today, just to spite d.o.r."

I have my moments.

You don't have "moments," @C to the J; you have "hours."

"Data sanitation engineer." When survey's ask me what my job title is, I'm going to start using that. Very good, @jklmnop

 

[Turtlefemm]

But, apparently, you invented a new word. Good on ya!

Groceried is a perfectly valid word, right?

oh trust me, u have no idea how mediocre coleman is. I NEEDED him to have a game like this last week. and he did NOT. For years football experts have been wondering when Tevin Coleman would finally have a game like this.

and it finally happened against me. grrrrrrr

You're checking all the little ~"keep me logged in" check boxes?

Oh yes.

You get logged out every 12 hours.
If you manually log yourself out and back in at the start of every work session then it won't be a problem. (this is if you're already logged in once you start working, otherwise would be pointless obviously)

I do this, but I think I was under the assumption that it was (and at first it seemed to be) a 24-hour rule. It doesn't seem to be consistently 12 hours either. I don't work on a regular or set schedule (for reasons relating to medicine and my chaotic life).

Thats a lot better week 1 than most. Grats!

Thank you! I am trying to learn from all of you, and maybe it's working!

It's always been 12 hours on the nose for me.

It's probably already mentioned, and it's not terribly efficient but if you're scraping the barrel AMT Studies $1 survey is not terrible and has about 121 hits available (I assume 1 per person) so lots of people should be able to do it.

I will figure out the posting hits thing eventually.

I have not figured out the whole single/multi survey thing yet, some seem to stay up with 1 hit after it's taken and others have lots of hits and others disappear after you do them. It's like calculus.

The surveys with multiple HITs are using a trick to bypass paying extra fees to Amazon.
