    I've just installed it - cool! Thank you!

    "Worst case scenario" is what your approval rating % would be if all your pending hits were rejected...horror of horrors...

    Any way of doing a "best case scenario" ?:D

    Cool script! Thanks for writing that!

    What would be even more useful to me though would be if it also displayed the number of rejections you could receive before you percentage dropped a point.

    Version 2.0 released. Added approximate number of rejects that drop you to the edge of RATE_GOOD and RATE_OK. You can set these by editing beginning of the script. Defauts are 99.0% and 95.0%

    You're amazing, cheers!

    The new version seems to work perfectly in FF but unfortunately Chrome no longer seems to recognize it as a script to install. When I drop it onto the extensions page, it just displays the source code instead of installing. Version 1.0 works fine in Chrome though.

    Do you mind if I add your scripts to the list I compiled for the HitsWorthTurkingFor for sidebar?

    There is an extension called tampermonkey for chrome. It may work better with greasemonkey scripts.

    No problem.

    love can you come up with a best case scenario so we can see how many hits we need to improve our percentage rates? That will take the pain of doing all the math involved for most of us. It would be awesome and we would appreciate it a lot.

    I hope it is more useful than it is entertaining. Just remember to set your target rates at the top of the script (RATE_GOOD and RATE_OK). Defaults are 99% and 95%. (Maybe I should add simple GUI to do that...)

    What browser? If chrome, try with Tampermonkey extension.
