A lot of these psychological and morality surveys are starting to reveal a pattern. In taking the things seriously to help aid whatever research, I end up with an absolute straight line down the bubbles that I then have to go back and throw an odd one in, in order to not get rejected. You asked, now stare into the abyss, undergraduate man.

The hit page said $2.00, should be fine hopefully.
I'm just dreading a "whoopsie doodle bed bug" I-made-a-mistake note with a rejection.

I tried channeling my inner GTR, but so far I only made it through 850 of the neevos. Still a good ways to go.
New here....can you explain what this means?

whew. taking a short break after 879 penny batches in what is a surprising never ending batch. Did 200 before midnight and this after midnight. Made yesterday not suck so bad when I wasn't able to work in the morning (doctors appt) or catch a thing when I got back (it was PE 0 until the late night batch started).

Wish my nickel drips or nickel batches would hit or even a decent survey, but I guess they are off for the fourth or Vicky is wondering who will work for free this holiday and I"m not that desperate.
How do you even get them done so quick? They are only like 5 min. I guess you are using something where it catches them...but doesn't start the time? I need that.

Ok, it’s a free for all. I’m not drinking, but work is not getting done.

no.
so you won't do it for $20/hour? :wink:

Guess that's an opportunity - Uber Boat or Lyft Boat and your govt organization can collect license fees and share of revenue for allowing that company to provide that service.

You're not using MTS? Hit Catcher catches the hits, I have to work them and if the 5 min timer expires, they automatically end but HC may catch it again when it's returned to the pool.

these are single-click pennies (well, two-click if you count the submit button) so they can be done with quality relatively quickly.

Usually a script of some sort, there isn't a way to have it accepted and not start the time. Like I made an AHK for the MLD pennies that just requires a single key press, sometimes I do them with voice though.
