01/18 - Thataway Thursday!

Anyone have any theories about why some hits I'm submitting aren't showing up on Amazon?

I am going to bed.

 

It was a windy morning. A morning filled with chance ...and thirst. A thirst so strong, it had to be quenched.

Suddenly! The siren call of a sweet, lemon lime gatorade in the fridge beckoned me- I COULD NOT RESIST!

But soft, what lemon lime through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and gatorade is the sun. That thou, her juice, art far more fair than me.

So...I mighta jacked some of that from ol' Willy Shakes.

 

I had the same issue a couple of says ago with a HIT and I have been working with the requester trying to figure it out so I can be paid. I know I submitted it but it is just not there.

 

The stuff I do for this place *crosses fingers*



Y'know on second thought I think I'm gonna take his word for it.

Can you give us a little more information? You think some hits you're submitting are not going through? Did you check your dashboard? What exactly is happening?

 

Yeah, it was on my dashboard. They showed up in MTS's HIT Tracker, but not under "Today" on the Amazon dashboard. But I just looked through again, and they're there now, but out of order. Not something I've ever experienced before, but now that I can actually see them under today's submitted HITS, I'm not so worried. Thanks for the reply, though

Almost certainly crap, but maybe not crap.

 

I would love a script that automatically returns hits that give that stupid "you have exceeded the amount for this requester" line

 

FWIW they're inserted according to the time you accept them, not submit. Which isn't intuitive to our workflow but dat how it do be did.

 

Oh, well shit. TIL. Haha!

 

People do not value their time.

I was having the same problem last year. Tried everything to fix it, including disabling superfetch. Turns out the solution was to get another computer, since it finally just went kablooie.
