Can't find good HITs? 10/16

Totally the best time of year for Muchen: "At night you can skate home on other people's sick."

 

Anybody doin' hundreds of the Liat's HITs?

 

I'm taking the afternoon off of work. The dog is sick and barfed all over my bedroom. Took her to the vet (she has allergies), but I've still managed to get to over $21 today between all the stuff posted here. Thanks guys!

 

My favorite was: just because someone smokes pot, doesnt mean they wont accel in life.

 

Good luck with the pup, that sounds..erm...unenjoyable.

 

just to be sure everybody is getting a bunch of NO on this Liat Amram HITS right?

 

I haven't read through the thread but I am loving these, sorry if it's been posted. most are under 15 seconds for me:

Liat Amram
Validate mentions of companies in short text 5 cents

Good TO other than slow payment

 

Silver lining....could be worse she could be shitting everywhere too!

 

company abbreviations? Are you saying yes it is a company? >.> Or anyone else got an answer?

 

Thanks. It wasn't too terrible, or at least as vomit cleanup goes.

Very true.

 

Very nice. Maybe I should have joined the military...

Thanks a ton granit, nothing like an easy $3 to kickstart the afternoon.

 

I don't even have to look at the questions anymore with the Taggered hits. I don't think I will ever be able to forget them; I'll be going over imaginary items in my dreams.

Over 90% are company stock symbols, not names so I am marking "neither". I used to do web design for a stock broker so it's fast for me. NYSE is obviously the new york stock exchange, but if it isn't spelled out I mark neither. MCSI is a company name - not a stock symbol. I plan to email him about that but he's goiing by majority rules so I'm not too worried about it. I've dome a ton already!

 

FYI...NYSE Euronext is a company name. They take 2 seconds to look up is you are worried about one, most are NYSE.

And I should have said that most are the symbols for stock exchanges.

 

Here's an easy one that didn't take long for $0.80 (about 10 minutes, I think):

Also, if anyone hasn't done this one yet, it was easy and under 5 minutes:

The instructions say that they use majority rules to check peoples work and allow for errors and won't reject peoples hits automatically if the answer is wrong. The TO is good with people saying they've never been rejected. I think as long as you are doing them seriously it will be unlikely that you will have a problem. I answered no to the majority I did as well.

 

Thinking of starting a thread just for batch hits because that is what I do mostly. I could name the thread " My batch is bigger then yours!" What does everyone think of this idea?

 

That's how I feel, but I will email him later also. And, Globex is an exchange but it's spelled out, so I check company name. A lot of the banks are partial names, bacause often "Federal Reserve" is not highlighted in the name, but is part of it.

And Latam is usually just an abbreviation for latin america
