I think I can see why there are only 3 pages so far today. I got on about 20 mins ago and haven't caught squat.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong on the Noah hits? When ever I have to do one completely right or completely wrong I can only get 99.99% I have tried to do a couple of them, but always have to end up skipping. I try rewriting it again and again. I just can't figure out how to get 100%
Do you mean the HITs where you're trying to trick the system? If so, I've found the system is most mistake prone when there are many different nouns involved in the context. In those cases you can sometimes trick it into thinking numbers, times and places are doing impossible things.


Take that advice with a grain of salt though, since I'm brand spanking new to this and I'm currently just sitting here hoping my approval percentage doesn't get rejected into oblivion on my first day. :dead:

if u want my advice... if u are new to mturk and are worried about approval percentage, just focus on surveys... its almost impossible to get rejected from a survey as long as you are honest and paste the correct survey code into mturk.

Been dead here for quite a while - I have been amusing myself playing Solitaire but I'm bored with that now so I will go read.

i've completed my local newspaper's 6-star (hardest) sudoku while waiting for something to hit.

guess I'll go watch and hope H-town can close the deal and kill the yankees.

I used to be a rabid sudoku fan. Until I quit subscribing to my local paper. Now, once in awhile, I pick up a paperback and do them, but it's not the same. I rip through them too quickly and don't get the same enjoyment!

my paper's 6-star takes me about 20-30 mins to do, so reasonably hard for me (I've only been at it about 2 months).

I like -- and recommend to you if you still want to do sudoku's -- the youtube channel "Cracking the Cryptic" because 9 out of 10 times they feature sudoku's that are harder than my local paper's 6-star ones and I get stuck on them about 2 out of 10 times so they are nicely hard for me and usually take upwards of an hour to solve because of their higher difficulty level and if I'm stuck, I can watch the video to see how they solved it and maybe pick up some tricks seeing that.

enjoy the rest of your night.

For all y'all arty types. A real breeze, all ratings, one brief bit of words. No sweat. I found it enjoyable, but I would since this is my profession (yes I have one of those).
