    So you know how I've been submitting hits and although I get the hit submitted successfully page it is not actually submitting? Now it is happening when I try to return hits, here is what happens when I try to return this Arnold hit:

    Welcome back! Long time no see! I remember that avatar.

    In addition to scraper that you already know of I believe, there's also a newer form of scraper - HIT Finder. Don't know if you've used Turkmaster. There's a newer one called Panda Crazy which organizes your pandas and catches them for you. Feel free to check them out in my sig.

    Mturk seems to be bit slower than last year and the batches/surveys go really quickly these days.

    I do use scraper, but I'll check out the others. I don't recall ever using Turkmaster, but it sounds familiar. I'll check them out! Thank you!

    Payments used to go flawlessly and quickly?

    What type of shoulder surgery?

    That's interesting. Never had that happen. Did you try returning from the actual HIT page, the yellow button on the top where it says Return HIT? Does that do the same thing?

    I don't know if you saw the blue banner in the Mturk site encouraging people to start using their new mturk website. worker.mturk.com. Right now we can use either one. The current one or the new one but they probably will do away with the current one in the future.

    Yeah, Amazon Payments used to transfer within minutes, and to my bank in about 24 hours. As for what sort of surgery, I'm not sure yet. Doc has ordered an MRI to determine exactly what he's going to do. All I know is it's going to be properly fixed for the first time in thirteen years, and I am excited.

    Had this $4.00 45-minute Emotions & Healthcare Preferences Study rejected because I apparently ttok part in another study by the same requestor some other time:(

    I thought quals were assigned to prevent such happenings. We'll call this one a newb error I suppose. Still hate that rejection.

    That's wrong. They should do their own screening at the beginning. :(

    I torn my glenoid labrum a few years back. I've recently developed pain in the other shoulder. Similar to what I had then.

    Do you use HIT database? It helps keep track of what you've done in the past.

    Not all requesters use quals to screen out past workers but they should.

    That was my (respectful) argument in the email. She isnt budging. I dont even care, to much, about the payment. Just the rejection.

    I just got HIT Finder. It's prettier than scraper but I have a lot of stuff to block. The beep is kind of low too.

    Hi sks! Hope you had a good day.

    I love the cat too!

    You could try using Adblock for now. I don't have any issues with Adblock on.

    I did not. That sounds like something I could benefit from. I just PandA'd an awesome $4 HIT and thought I was in. Dumb apparently

    I wouldn't worry too much about the rejection. I have 70. Your approval rating won't suffer too much if you keep doing hits.

    Your time is more valuable though.

    Not your fault. We can't possibly keep track/remember all the surveys we've done in the past.

    When I first started, I thought I could but then the more I did, I realized there was no way I could keep up with that so I started keeping track.
