    So I have this thing called a job. The technical definition is: That thing you do to make money when all high dollar HITs and batches are posted on MTurk

    Haha that's awesome. I actually "started" in May 2015 and did some surveys, a lot of crowdsurf transcriptions, but didn't stick to learning more and gave up. I Officially started now for real last month and it's been a learning curve, but this forum has been great, super helpful and supportive :ba: I wish I joined from the start!

    Night folks, off to bed for me. Have an adventure at the RV show tomorrow. Funny what getting older does to you.

    Not even a little bit. Unless you're waiting on English, which seems as if it's like waiting for Godot at this point.

    No worries, I can do Spanish if I want to, just move slightly slower with it.

    Weren't you one who needs numbers? 3800 HITs is daily cap, keep it going!!! Seriously, CI batches like this are rarer than they used to be, enjoy it while it's around. Not the best hourly ever, but good when you get into a rhythm with them.

    CI hourly is fine without captchas. Captchas can make it hard though.

    Certainly better without them, but I think you just need to hone your approach when you have captchas. I used to do them constantly with captchas, think the most I did of CIs in a day was around 2200-2400. A9s, I capped on back when they were .02. You can work around it, just figure out the quickest way to clear a captcha. In overnight hours especially, I used to just keep a separate CI or A9 in it's own tab and cleared using that instead of having a throwaway, but that was before the throttle was so serious.

    Parcel search sites that don't search by address are really, really great.
