I keep struggling with catching good HITS and then falling into old habits of grabbing a bunch of penny HITS just for something to do. I'm still not sure I have the whole workflow thing down.

Dear Fellow Associate,

Thank you for your support in our Crowd related activities.

Please may I take this opportunity to encourage you to feel welcome to reach out to me should you need more information on performing our tasks more accurately.

I would request that we please exercise utmost diligence while providing responses. We will be carrying out reviews frequently and will be considering only those associates for future tasks who meet the accuracy threshold.

I got the same email and suspect a lot of us did. They suck, the instructions are far from clear and without a comprehensive list of their categories, it's by no means always clear how to proceed. I went through a brief period of working them fairly often, but tapered off over the past month because they're even worse now than they were before. Aside from the occasional very clear batch, to me, the hourly isn't worth it.

Sometimes I log on knowing it's slow thinking "just TRY anything. It adds up." Then I see p9r and Scout it and the same old "Hell Nos" that's always up there and lose that motivation.

right...because I see people talking about how many they do and I can't fathom how they're doing them that quickly unless they're randomly clicking....I realize some have been doing them for years and in great volume so they may be able to recognize more items more quickly.....but still....

and then you get the ones with no picture and a non-sense string of letters like BoiseSt 93hkjahei35XLblk095053...you search it and get nothing...and somehow you're supposed know if it's a hoodie, tshirt or socks...:shrug:
