    How am I already signed out of worker.mturk after only 4 hours since I manually logged in/out? OW needs to start alerting me or worker.mturk needs to stop being so screwy. This is what made me ask about the mturk/worker sites being synced up to eachother or how they log in/out.

    On another topic, did I read something a few days ago stating PEs would not show up until amazon totals up the 2016 numbers? Both DB and dashboard can't seem to calculate my PE totals for the day

    I think I just dont have anything submitted yet today. I picked some stuff up just before the changeover last night and have only completed those.

    Same. It really has been dry as far as surveys go these past few days. I'm lucky I started doing batches recently because this week would've been worthless without them.

    Surveys are a nice break in between batches for me. So it's been a bit rough :cry:

    Most of the batches I have come across or people talk about are closed qual that I don't have the qual for. I take what I can be it surveys or otherwise along with any Will, Zoltar, or Robins I get in the day. Money is money... i just don't do the 20min surveys for 40cents lol :)

    For all of the new members. Slow day, so a good day to backup everything. TM, HM, OW, PC, HITDB, MKII, scripts. If you don't know what these are or what backing up entails, time to start doing some research/reading. Don't do this and the next time you clear cookies or run something like Ccleaner you will be sorry. Now go do it! :ay:

    Same, I just returned a $6 survey because it was a 120min survey and TO said that it did take that long.

    To be honest surveys are kinda my jam. Gimme 10 50c 2 min surveys to finish and I'm a happy camper 20 mins later. I like to read so sometimes the surveys are really interesting. Other times I'm just speed reading and the pennies still add up. I was too impatient to get into batches until very recently, but the scripts help.

    2 hours? I'd have to be VERY bored to try that, even though a $6 survey would be a nice land normally

    Hey I think I know what survey you're talking about! It wasn't a horrible survey per se but yes it did take at least 100 of those 120 minutes for me

    HitScraper. Like I said, I like to read, so I can get through a lot of the "shopping survey" ones real quick. If I'm taking more than 4min on a 50c survey, I consider it time wasted and will return if it looks like it won't be worth it.
