    Well, I'm definitely hitting a wall, I've barely been able to clear over 30 a day all week, and I'm not sure what I can do to change that.

    I never get more than one pin, there haven't been any YTA or CI batches, I'm prohibited from doing anything that requires recording my voice or taking photos/video, I'm sick and tired of doing crowdsurf, and I'm unable to turk from 8 A.M - 12 P.M. because I need to get at least 3 hours of sleep a day but that seems to be when the majority of worthwhile HITs are available, and I can only use an iPad during the day.

    What do you suppose the odds of the rekognition team ever having a hit that doesn't exclude the state I live in?

    Were you responding to me? I think you were. I apologize if you were not. I've spent the better part of two years (broken up over several stretches of months) making this work for me, and quite frankly I hate it. Thank God Mturk is here when I need it, but if this was all I had, I might end up stabbing myself in the temple. If you are one of those folks who has decided to make this your full time gig, well, you better be strong and focused and talented. I wish you the best, but seriously, if you have a job, it might not hurt to try to work with that.

    I couldn't even hazard a guess as to why certain states are excluded. :dunno:

    It was the amazon tax free states so that the states couldn't use mturk to claim a nexus and start collecting sales tax.

    Fun thing is that amazon is going to? already started? collect tax in all states (except those w/o sales tax ofc), so that reasoning is now gone. But this is mturk, so it will take month if ever for them to remove the state restrictions.

    It's just a tax thing. I wouldn't worry about it too much though. Amazon has made some new purchases lately
