I thought so too. But I doubt if he can photoshop that. Hence, I have to accept his claims. BTW, if you see his earnings (from the other thread), he had earned around $100 for 1800 HITs in a day. That makes $0.05/HIT. Assuming 1 hit/ min, he would need 30hrs/day. So I am guessing he is averaging more than a HIT/min. If it is 2 HITs/min, that's 15hrs/day. I doubt if people can turk for 15hrs/day everyday without losing their sanity. But then, people are weird. Could you do one and post an example? I am not contending you. I am eager to see a photoshop work of the dashboard.
I would tend to think "IF" it is happening with an average of .05 per hit that there is more then one person working on one account which would allow for 24 hour a day turking. Just my opinion though. I am from the US and do turk quite a bit and my totals for the past 45 days are only $2,700 since I don't hit my goal every day. And btw... I could photoshop that pretty easily.
IF U DO INDIAN ACCOUNT IN USA U WILL BE SUSPENDED..definitely..it is also possible in INDIA..at that time master hits where plenty..now not..but i am not bluffing..it is sure.. my great hard work...
you believe or not.. thats not matter dont blame the hard work..1 last thing want to clear.. that hit was.. .06$.or .10$.i can do 4 per min.. now calculate in ur mind calculator.. !!!
Good for you sudesh but my opinion still stands. Master hits are more plentiful now then they have been since the program started. As for the part about doing US hits on an Indian account, I was speaking of this: http://mturkforum.com/showthread.php?2484-Post-Requesters-Who-Approved-Your-Hit!
I hope you can read and comprehend. If not, I feel sorry for you. @IMAWUBBER, Our speculations are cleared. It's straight out from the horse's mouth. See the boldened part.
The sad part BMW is that there are a few requesters I can do 4 hits a minute for too so I don't see that as clearing our speculations. The only problem is that the hits I do are US only.
Hei Sudesh,,, Don't say he can't.... Master qualification s not meant for you only.......... So please dont be over confident. All others can i u can get it.
@nadiya..i am not meaning that.. he asked the qn how to get that.... thats y i replied like this..i am always encouraging turkers thats y posted my stats..did i got any prize or money in this forum .. ..with my experience i wrote that .. if ur master then reply that question!!!.. no problem ...so dont blame me..it will hurt..so give respect and take respect... dont talk unnecessarily...
I don't think he was saying that others cannot get the qual. I think he was trying to say that people cannot get the qual if you are just new to mtruk. As for the over confident aspect of it I guess he can't be that confident if he has lost the qual himself. You are right though Nadiya as there are many workers besides sudesh that have the "master" qualification. It is (in my opinion) just another way for amazon to get more money from the requesters as they charge them a premium to put their hits up with the "master" qualification.
Assuming 3 HITs/ min, its 20 seconds each. Assuming 4 HITs/min, its 15 seconds each. No wonder you reach such numbers. You are garnering numbers (& moolah) by being click happy. Thank god, I am not the requester. I am extremely grateful that you can't do anything. No, seriously.
OMG !! Hw did the comments over here go in such a fashion ? :O As just a 3 month member on mturk and a below avg. turker, neither do I have the plans to argue with someone nor come to a conclusion on mere speculations I wud rather ask a few questions to the experts out here 1)I doubt if someone could ever cheat Amazon and the Mturk team by some auto system or say some IP address or proxy port alteration technique or somethn ..Can they ? 2)Are there any regulations to the number of HITS we can do per minute or hours ? 3)If suppose a requester wants to get a thing done he posted in some 50,000 of HITS....one person has the ability to do 2 in a minute...the other has a caliber to do the same in 6 minutes and some other can do even 10 in a minute...Does tht ever bother the requester if he gets his work done right and also Amazon if it wasnt intiated by some bot system ? 4)And for instance if some one comes up with a program or script or wutteva to do a HIT in quite a fast bit of time..I wud call it Artificial Artificial Artificial Intellegence...Will that be a violation of some rules ?? Finally as an Indian...I would kindly request Sudesh if he could explain the methods he implement to get to that master Qual. and the type of works he does if he really intends to. Now the choice is his to prove it to the ppl out here who are suspicious about his earnings that it was actually his hard earned money and not a penny came from any sort of deceptive usage .....
1. Yes, it is possible and done on a daily basis that people can cheat amazon. At least until they get caught. 2. The only limit there is for hits according to amazon is that you can only do 3800 per day. As for the requester getting their hits done fast. I really don't see them complaining about it, however, if it is done in a fashion where the worker is just clicking at random or a bot then I would say it would be an issue. 3. What happened to 3? lol 4. Having a program, script or "bot" is against Amazons Terms of Service and will get your account banned.
You don't need to be an expert , you just gotta use common sense . Just saying. As for point 2, If I click through, I can more than 10 HITs/min. It has nothing to do with caliber. Its basically how fast your internet is and how fast your hand moves. I am willing to give the benefit of doubt and would accept if it is 2 HITs/min. That's like 30 seconds per HIT. Assuming that accepting and submitting will take 5 seconds, you have 25 seconds to do the HIT. Now, if it is 3 HITs/min, that's 20 seconds each. And reducing your accepting & submitting time to 4 seconds, you have 16 seconds to work on the HIT. 4 HITs/min, you have 15 seconds each. If were to read through the work, think and answer, I would bet my arm and leg that it would take more than 15 seconds. Unless of course, you are clicking through. OR, a requester is asking you what is 1+2 or 5+1 in all of his HITs.
U referred to common sense and then clicking thru the HITS...They both just contradict because NO Requester as far as i av dealt with is senseless to pay us just for clciking thru rather he/she cud do it himself with some auto-click software Take my word i have never been paid a penny for just clicking accept and submit. Now taking into consideration if two ppl have the same speed of internet what is the criterion then to decide whose does the HITS faster ? Please answer to my point and not where u think it shud be answered
