    I haven't tried it, but I've heard that Chivalry is the better of the two. I was actually about to buy Chivalry the other day but I went to the Steam forums and there were a lot of complaints of hackers and bugs, so I steered clear.

    Here is my text part

    As most of you know I have taunted Classify This as an excellent source of steady income for some time now. How can this be you ask? People have had mass rejection nightmares working for them and Indeed they have. They reject/accept hits based on a majority rules system where if 2 out of 3 people disagree with you you will recieve a rejection. Not a very fair method to be honest but unfortunately this is the method they use, I however have done in excess of 40 thousand hits for them and never had an issue except for the reject here and there. I have it down to 0-2 rejecrts per 1,000 hits I do for them and to be really honest them are most likely from me doing the damn things so fast and mosty likely an error on my part.
    So since I have done so well for myself working for this requester I have finally decided it was time I tried to help some of you great turkers from my community to have a go at claiming some of this easy cash. They aprove within 1-2 hours once they are done which is another great plus working for them because I like my money fast.
    I managed to put together 4 video guides giving good explanations of how to judge the hits they post. I was pretty damn specific too. If you take the time to follow these video guides you can easlily overcome that mass rejection worry and start adding an extra $70-$100 a week on top of your normal turking cash. These hits post damn near daily and even sometimes 2x a day. This can add up really fast. They post at very random hours so if you are dedicated you can set it up so you will be woke up if they hit when you are sleeping. This is what I do. I'll gladly wake up for $15-$25 then go my ass back to sleep =]
    Here is what you do. Make a gmail account just for this. Set up a turkalert account with that gmail account and ONLY add classify this to it. The way Classify Posts hits you will never miss them. Turkalert always catches them. Now set up outlook express of some other mail program and set it to alert you when you get a mail. Set that alert loud and annoying. If that alert goes off you know it can only be one thing... Classify This cash about to go into your pocket!

    Here is the youtube video links

    thanks! great advice, not just the stuff about classify this either but the email alert setup too...
    i know i've done a few for them and wasn't rejected, but what's the pay, how big are their batches, and how many is reasonable for someone to do in an hour?

    I average 15-20 bucks everytime they post a batch. I am very familiar with these so I earn around $9 hr on them average. Only 2 cents a hit but they can be done very fast with you still being accurate.

    There was actually a third survey right after that, but I quit at that point - I figured that I did what was asked, so there's no reason for him to reject. We'll see, though.

    about the first video you mention a "return" on the site with the little bird looks like that has a timer that ticks down that eventually brings up a webpage. I think I know why people tick yes on those once in a while. I bet they are working multiple tabs to get rid of load times between each hit. as they go around i bet they simply open the page then jump to the next tab to open the next then come around and skim each page for each hit know what I'm saying. by the time they loop around the timer has cycled and the page is waiting for them.

    Something like that is most likely the issue. Better to return than be burned on it.

    I kept saying "damn!" every time a new screen appeared after I answered a question. UGH!
    Took me over an hour, but I did take a lot of breaks.
    Never ending!
