Hello from Iowa, home of the no A9 land..

So, I guess I have to find other easy batches to get my numbers up? Anything that people love just as much as the A9s?

Hello!!!! I'm new to MTurk, got about 550 hits. Lots to learn and loving it!

What's the best advice you can give me so I can get my numbers up quickly and easily. I realize that I only get 2 out of 3 options..quick, easy, and/or good. Trying really hard to keep rejections down, so looking for requesters that are communicative, fair, and quick to approve. Who's your favorite?

 

Hello, and welcome to the Hub.

There are a few requesters you could keep a look out for – such as Pinterest and C-SATS, Inc – that are relatively safe, and you could use to get your numbers up.

GeoHIVE Administrator has a forum presence here, and @Bobby 's quite responsive to inquiries.

Using TO (Turkopticon – https://turkopticon.ucsd.edu/) was of great value to me when I first started, and something you could use to see which requesters to avoid, and which to perform work for.

Best of luck!

 

If you haven't already I suggest grabbing http://mturksuite.com/ or at least checking it out as the scripts will help you a lot in basically all turk stuff.

As far as general suggestions you should just not be afraid to ask questions and someone hopefully will help you. And for stuff to get numbers right now... If you have an american accent and a microphone you could do

Project Endor (Jamelio)

https://www.mturk.com/mturk/previewandaccept?groupId=375FCEJV3FHJ5WUGM086SW79I5OCCO

Watch the timer though on them (it is only 3min)

This script likely would be helpful as well https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/18962-project-endor-jamelio-keybinds

The cap on them is 520? hits or something like that and most people here have either worked on them and capped in the last few days or are working on them now.


Oh and welcome

 

Thanks everyone! I did install the MTurk suite and I like it pretty well. I was using several scripts in tampermonkey but was able to disable them and things seem to run a bit faster. I'll check out some of those hits you suggested. I don't have a headset yet, so I'm kind of thinking I need to get a good one. I did buy a gaming mouse that helped a lot!

Welcome to the hub.

Once you get over 1k approved you can do customer interests. They aren't communicative but their hits are easy (I don't like the unique ones) and they approve In a day or so.

 

Well, hello. Welcome to the HIVE. Once you're in, you'll never EVER leave. Learn more about us at geohive.digitalglobe.com. Register at that site with your MTurk ID, and I'll give you a qual that allows you to work our HITs. My team is about 6 deep. Sometimes my developers launch HITs and reject quals, which make my inbox here hurt. I try my best to keep everybody abreast of changes, updates, and punishments (don't auto submit your HITs).

Just to restate for the 100th time here, if you auto-submit (broken-record-Bobby) I will send Johnny knuckles your way.

 

Hi!
This is my second week turning and I have learned so much and still have so much to learn. I went through and just made notes of past threads throughout all of the different forums and watched you tube videos and am still learning. To get my numbers up I have been doing the 9pr but they can be finicky so really go back and double check and follow the special instructions. The two I had rejected from them I honestly couldn't tell you why they were I emailed asking for clarification so I didn't repeat those mistakes and they said they one was really small and the other special instructions confusing and they reversed them. Otherwise scout it has been nice and is easy repetitive work of typing line items off of receipts and verifying totals to just get numbers up. If you are a good typist. Sprinkle in some surveys and I'm slowly getting my numbers up! Good luck!
