    If you have ever had a cast you know that sometimes nothing can compare to a clothes hanger.

    Project Endor (Zoltar) [A2ZRMA7YDNF5RJ] Website Evaluation - $0.12 | PANDA


    Generous

    <24 hours

    Unrated
    $18.78 / hour
    00:00:23 / completion time
    Pros: When they're around they are consistent work. They tend to post at the same time every day for weeks which makes them easy to find and work on.

    The pay can be influenced heavily by what scripts/workflow you utilize and how throttled the batches are, but in general they are at least $15-$20/hr for me [higher if its the first time they pop up in a while and they aren't being throttled]. With experience & custom scripts it can be nudged even higher than that.

    The work is generally safe from rejections/blocks so long as you follow the directions & put forth effort, so there's no real reason to ever need to contact the Requester.

    Cap is generally ~200, which is a pretty safe & easy $20 for work that, even if a bit tedious, at least has a good bit of variety to it.
    Cons: They end up throttled to no end, especially after a few days of consistent drops, which makes them difficult to catch and drags down the hourly.

    They tend to disappear for weeks or months at a time to move their work to other platforms.

    The Requester wont reply and has been known to block to prevent future work. So if your answers aren't what they're looking for you may end up with an account block. Read the instructions carefully & ask questions on the forums if you're uncertain, but if you're doing it properly you wont have any problems.

    I keep getting a message with Endor saying an error has occurred and to please refresh my browser. However, nothing happens when I refresh? Is this happening to anyone?
