Listen to philly/jersey sports talk radio, I'm sure they're giving away free tickets all week hah. Craigslist isn't a bad option either (just gotta keep your suspicion alert up), I was able to get four tix in a suite for under $50 a pop a few years ago.
Do you ever do 2 dozen HITs recording yourself speaking spanish sentences because you thought the HIT asked for Native English speakers only to read it again much later and see that it in fact says Native Spanish speakers? All have already been rejected. It's that sort of Monday morning for me.
Did the easy ad hits stop? Haven't seen them in a couple of days and I didn't turk for most of last week.
After some major turk slacking over the last two weeks or so, it's time to stack some dollars of the turk variety.
Yea. They dried up right after a bunch of people got rejected on some of them. Haven't seen them posted in at least 4 days.
Of course, this hasn't kept "Glupco Brat" and friends from promising me $1.20 for 1 minute of work and making their HITs unsubmittable. Of course the ones that paid would be the ones to disappear.

Too bad, those were nice. I still have some from the 31st which never approved! Edit: make that the 30th
I did one of those silly speak HITs that was just over an hour long for $18 last year and it was the worst $18 I have ever earned. I won't do those now if they are 3 minute surveys after that.
Fox posted that he also has ones that haven't been approved going way back. I probably too but I haven't bothered checking. I'm not terribly worried about it though because sometimes the requester accounts get banned and they have to go the full 30-day auto approval period.
Even if they're auto-approved after 30 days, that doesn't really mean they'll pay though, right? I mean that's still better than having them rejected...
My understanding is that unless a requester rejects work, AA means it will be paid by that time because the money is in the account. If their account was banned, they cannot get in to reject it. I've had HITs that took around a month to approve before and they paid; they weren't rejected.
