Well that sucks...I accept it and it immediately goes from 1 second to 30 seconds and expires on me:/ I even synced my computer time to make sure it was correct.

 

1193 Bing Delfs up

 

Really that's strange? They're working just fine for me.

 

I have several hits that have been "approved-pending" for several days now. I've never had that happen before...Sent MTurk an email, but haven't heard anything. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

 

I don't really get the Delf hits. So you have to sit on the page for 2 minutes, and you can't do any other google searches, thus you can't do anything for 2 minutes...so you're making .05/2.5~ minutes? Am I missing something?

 

That's odd. These things auto submit as soon as you make a selection. Maybe you accidentally selected something (like leaning on keyboard, or mouse button)?

 

Wow i'll do these all night if I could

 

is there a trick to these? it seems like .05 is not worth it to wait around two minutes, after already having searched

 

how do you guys do these delf hits? Do you accept 5 at a time?

 

I'm having the same problem. My HITs are from 1/2. It's probably a bug and they'll pay out soon. I haven't tried to contact MTurk. Will you let me know if you hear anything from them. Thanks!

 

Me too!! I'm lovin them, and there are over 800 now!

 

I do them in the background of things that don't need Google.
So it's adding to them.

 

Indeed there is. Read the post below you

 

Sure, will do. Thanks for the reply!

 

Make sure you read the directions carefully. Pay attention to your timer.

 

You can queue 25 HITs at a time, so you can accept 25 HITs and fill them all in and then accept them all after 2 minutes have passed. However, make sure you do them all to the exact very science that he asks for, other wise you will be rejected. Sometimes, even if you do them right, he will reject you anyway.

It's like getting that hot girl in bed knowing she has a STD and hoping your condom is okay.

 

wtf Homezoo. :|

 

Do you guys just wait for the HIT timer to get to 2 min and then submit it or 2 min after you went on the webpage?

EDIT: Nvm found my answer in a previous post.

 

awww...all the homezoo's are gone. Was it just mine that were loading slow?
