    I think you should do a little bit of everything, so you can see what you like, and what you're good at. When I first started out, I leaned heavily on TO to get a sense of some of the better requesters, and also to avoid rejections.

    I remember doing a lot of surveys and Jimmy Dragon's at first. I also got lucky with some early big a9 batches that were safe and got me numbers very quickly. If you find a penny batch that is safe and fast, ham that thing until you are cross-eyed.

    Oh, good point on safe. Especially early on you want to be very careful about rejections. Your approval rating is very important. Avoid taking risks with rejections until you've got some buffer.

    You're doing okay, it's just important to keep in mind when you don't have many hits approved. You're approval rate is a percentage so the more you have approved the less impact a rejection will have. Almost everyone has some rejections, just be careful as you build up your numbers.

    If I'm changing the action of a Will to something like "Jumping," do I just enter Jumping as the verb and leave the object blank, or would I do "Jumping" and "Human" instead?

    I've been leaving the object blank, but I'm a little uneasy about it.

    I leave the object blank. Jumping Human makes it sound like they should be jumping over someone else.

    You guys, I'm freaking out. None of my HITs will submit. They just keep getting stuck on the "loading next HIT" page and don't move forward. I tried force-submitting and it still doesn't work. I deleted my cookies and logged back in and nothing. Turned off all my scripts and still nothing. Anyone got any ideas?
