[Off topic, re HITs from a couple days back] but if that Gopi Parikh guy screws me out of 90 HITs I'll be furious. turkopticon.differenceengines. c0m/AJ1ZLZBZXBUCO I added the .pdf file extension to all of these (almost all downloaded files had no extension to start with), so I know I did them right. Otherwise, looks like I'm counting on Joe Elliott for 250 HITs, and FoodEssentials for another 100.
I have 16 (out of the ton pending) from FE that are from the 24th of July that haven't been accepted yet and some a few days ago already paid out.. don't know how they choose what and when to accept.. seems weird lol
I got exactly one HIT from Thursday(?) doing those nutrition labels, approved yesterday. The other 99 pending.
I think they just group a bunch together and hit accept according to funds or something. I'm not complaining, even if they take 15 days to approve they are great pay! Fe makes bad days into $60+ days! Checked my e-mail right now and had 3 bonuses totally $0.54... Lost 0.15 in rejects... Not a bad trade off I guess!
Make sure you're typing the catchpa slowly. And if you miss it the first time, wait a few seconds before typing the second one and, again, type it slowly. A few weeks back someone posted about how the catchpas not only check for accuracy but for how fast you type them... since I started doing them like I explained I've not been given a timeout.
I'm at 67 rejects for 20098 approved (99.7%). As long as your approval rating is at 99% you're golden.
I'm at about the same. Almost all of my pending ones are foodies so I should be fine. Pumping out some quick penny hits just to make sure though... well that and it's dead and I'm getting pretty close to 5k submitted. >.<
Don't think of it as a 'rejection', remember Turkopticon and think of it as an 'opportunity to leave scathing criticism for some internet sweat shop blood sucker or entitled academic lack-wit living on the taxpayer dollar'.
I just had the same thing happen. I thought I was losing my mind. I KNEW I posted the right captcha 4 times in a row. Then it locked me out for 5 minutes, and I missed a HIT because of it. Also had a HIT expire because the page didn't load quick enough. Hit "Submit" at 4:50 mark of a 4:59 allowed HIT. Page decides to load right as timer hits 4:59 and it says expired. But it didn't count as an Abandoned HIT. Huh? Isn't that what happens when the timer runs out? I'm a 10 day old MTurker and this is my first forum post. Hello all. PS: my confirmation account email for here went into my junk mail. I waited all day for it before the lightbulb popped in my head. SMH.
Is anyone not getting enough statuses for the SERGEY MARKOV hit? I tried it in chrome and only got 6 statuses but I had to rate 10. I tried it in firefox and got 10 the first time and 9 the second and I can't proceed without completing 10 of them.

Because they want your blood to boil. That is the true "survey". The results are very successful to say the least. I stay away from CrowdFlower. I hit 3 links from them, recieve that message and then have to go smoke a cigarette.
