    Until I get several thousand approved HITs and a relatively bulletproof approved HIT rating, I am leery about doing any HITs for someone with no TO, especially batches. The consequences of getting nailed with 50 rejections really bones you for doing a lot of HITs in the future.

    I let someone else walk through that minefield first!

    Yeah that's a good idea. I'll monitor the TO before doing any.

    I tend to do up to five of a new batch, whether they have a TO or not, to test the waters. Even if they're all rejected, it shouldn't hurt too badly.

    If anyone is doing these I have started a spreadsheet with a bunch of the mutual funds I have found so far. It's a work in progress but feel free to add more if you want. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AruT4_Zt69NVdEREbzl0VENnUUdYT1ZpZFdZZTRNYVE&usp=sharing

    Whoops, fixed.

    eta: I'll eventually start formatting it a little better but I'm just adding them as I go along right now so it may be a little bit of a mess at the moment.

    There just isn't any hits out there right now. I feel like I did them all already today.

    Only 9:42 PM here, I'm watching Shark Tank at the moment so I'm not really searching. I've been refreshing new hits periodically but haven't seen anything good to post.

    It's almost midnight here too. It's been quiet for a bit. The cell phone gods hate me so I'm just waiting for some "low bandwidth" hits or 1AM (Free internet).

    Got a reply to my message.

    Hi,

    I am so sorry for the inconvenience. We have fixed the problem. We are going to repost the task as a new HIT under the same requester name on Monday, February 11th at 10am. If you have any problems signing up for this new HIT, please let me know and I will create an individual HIT for you specifically so that you can still complete the HIT and get paid accordingly.

    Thank you for understanding!

    Liz

    Does anybody know where the hit database script saves its information to?
    My windows on a hard drive is permanently ****ed but I can still access files from another computer. So I can transfer my old database to this one

    Does anyone know? Not alot of answers googling.
