    lol, i just grabbed the first google search. And that IRC chat is bad, I'm only really there cause sometimes requesters come a post there so I try to get a jump on their batches :p

    Oh, and one more thing that helps me find hits is I know how much a HIT is generally worth by now. As a basic example: there are some HITs that I see posted regularly that ask you to find emails for .05c. But I know that finding an email is worth at least .15c and quite often .25c. Because if an email can't be found by scrapers it is not going to take just 30 seconds for me to find.

    @ChrisTurk Is it possible to make the Masters Qual a different color in the THXport? It makes it easier to ignore them.
    Search forums for "Projected Earnings" and take people's requesters. Also listen to people brag. I've learned which HITs are worth scripting from people bragging about them thinking nobody else could mimic what they did. Since I knew which HITs were worth it, all I had to do was learn to script it.

    And this is why I don't talk about what I work on. Good on you for being proactive.

    Why do you search for hits you are NOT qualled for? In hopes that there will be a qual test when you look at the description? Is it worth constantly doing quals? Is it kind of always a good hit if you need a qual for it? And is there an easier way to find the qual HITs? ones that aren't available in a test right on the HIT it's self.

    I'm not saying my scripts are as good as yours or probably 99% of people but they're better than no script and it's made me money so. :p

    Yup, this is what I did when I was starting out. Hell, I still look at what people made money off in case I missed something.

    Nah man you need to hype up all the other stuff like C-SATs so you can hoard all of the ScoutIts.

    It was only a few months ago when you could still get ScoutIts, but now... better get those Pandas running.
