    What's up everyone?

    Been turking on and off for a couple years now, making ~$30-$50/day when I put the effort in usually just letting Hit Scraper run on another monitor and having good reflexes. My primary income comes from betting on 3 different sports, all of which are in the offseason right now, so I've decided to step up my mturk game! Looking forward to making money with everyone :D

    Welcome!

    I see that you are still using hit scraper for some strange reason. I strongly suggest dumping that and switching to https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/36368-hit-forker instead as it is a lot better.

    Do you have a panda script? Going by the fact that you use hit scraper I fear that you might now so I suggest grabbing panda crazy https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/19168-jr-mturk-panda-crazy and the helper script https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/20380-jr-mturk-panda-crazy-helper

    hit forker even has a button that will send pandas directly to panda crazy


    There is also MTS with some stuff but honestly the only thing because the various small QOL scripts that it has that I use is hit tracker. I suggest grabbing it for hit tracker alone though as that is useful.

    :eek:

    The UNU bonuses are no longer safe, everyone flee :flail:

    Haha, welcome to the site dude. Seriously if you haven't already check them out (can click on the blue text for the wiki link I believe), they don't pay great unless you happen to be good at gambling but w/ it the bonuses can push the hourly pretty high.

    Hello!
    Just so you know, Hit Scraper is no longer being supported by its creator and is pretty out-of-date. Hit Forker (https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/36368-hit-forker) tends to work better and it meshes very well with Panda Crazy (https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/19168-jr-mturk-panda-crazy) for catching hits.

    Haha I remember doing a few of those UNU things that got posted during March Madness. I wonder how well their predictions actually turned out.

    Thanks for the advice on Hit Scraper, I just got a new laptop yesterday so I guess I'll skip that. I always knew there was other scripts but I was too lazy to learn.
