    Tried this the other day. By the time you get to the middle of the page, it just starts to repeat itself but with some slight alterations in the sentences. Too much of a pain for me, even at $11 :/

    Did Heather's $2 HIT the other day though. Was short and sweet. Still waiting for the HIT to approve.

    As a follow up, I've done about 40 of these tonight and have two rejections so far. Majority rules is how he grades the work. I've sent messages so we'll see what they have to say...

    Yea I started reading one of them but I got turned upside down because there was no order or paragraph breaks. Seemed like a complete mess, and it didn't say what the word count of the edited article should be.

    It tells you in the upper portion of the HIT. It's ~1200 words or so.

    For whatever reason, I'm taking a stab at the appliances HIT now. It doesn't look as convulted as the HIT I tried to rewrite the other day, so hopefully I won't quit halfway through.

    EDIT: Does anyone have a link to that website that compares 2 bodies of text and tells you how similar in word structure they are? I think it'd be nice to have for this.

    How badly does abandoned HITS count against you? I know it's rare to find a requester that wants a certain return rate, and I know rejected is bad, but what's the "word" on abandoned? I just don't want to cue up too many of product rnr and have them loaded and ready to go before they expire on me.

    I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your question but I'm wondering, how do you queue up multiple hits at once?

    @hbobh requesters never put on the quals for abandoned/returned hits. it shouldnt effect you much.

    If you're working on a batch, find the hit by searching for it, before opening it up, hold control and then use your wheel click (or left click 'open new tab') and click 'view a hit in this group' as many times as you want to open up the hit in multiple tabs. Then after they load go through and accept each hit individually. If you're just working on normal hits, accept it and then just make sure to get them done before the timer runs out. You can see what you've already accepted by going to "hits assigned to me". I think the limit is 25 that you can have queued up at one time.

    For some reason I thought I heard someone say once that a lot of expired hits were worse than a lot of returned hits :noidea: Awesome, thank you!

    Oh god, I'm glad it's you and not me. Dogsitting/housesitting at my aunt's house and her house reminds me of Paranormal Activity. I have a hard time sleeping.
