Thought I'd try CrowdFlower One Last Time
« on: April 29, 2014, 12:38:30 pm »
Knew I was going to have trouble when the bookmarklet gave me an error. Clicked on the "Click Here to start the job" again and it worked (again). Answered all questions, went to put the checkmark in the box at the end of the task, and it tells me I missed a step. Checked all the questions and answers. Sorry, CF, but NOPE. I DIDN'T miss a step.  >:(

Entered a ticket (again). Taking bets on no answers and my accuracy going down again. >:(

CF, you better get your act together. I'm sick of it!  >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

NOT GOING BACK.

the bookmarklet isn't working. I did everything right. I put it in my favorites. I got the right names. the right links. the right dates and at the end it just said look like you forgot a step and I did this several times. I spent way to much time on this for not even a penny.

It did that to me one time too, it was because I selected the wrong line number.  If you put the wrong info in or if you miss a step it will give you that error message.  I just recounted the line items and found I put the wrong number in, a easy fix.  Put the correct number in and then it accepted it.  Good Luck on that.

Crowdflower is ok for the short task but I ways mess up on long ones.  Or like you and they say I am wrong.  Remember program is only as smart as person who programed it and can have clichés.  God Bless

When the bookmarklet doesn't work, I always go back to the top and click on the orange button that states nothing should happen, then go to the step that I needed to use the bookmarklet on it and usually it works.

I've done this same task before and used the same answers as before. It just wouldn't accept the "check this box" step at the very end.  If you can't ut the check mark in this box, you can't submit the job, thus you don't get credit for it and you have to click on the "Give Up" button at the top to get out. Not sure, but I think that would also lower your accuracy score.

Of course, didn't hear from them again, so that's another reason I won't do any more tasks.

I haven't tried the tasks for a while now. I dislike completing the one that require a bookmark. Hope they get better tasks soon and drop the bookmark tasks.

I have only had luck with tasks that were surveys, mostly rerouted to another site and usually pay better than most tasks.  But other than that I give up.  I cannot even tell if a picture is inside or outside and come up with correct answer.  So I only look at tasks now is I am totally out of better options!

I had no luck of all surveys before I bought a new loptop. That was my computer did let me in all surveys, I think I accidentally got virus or something that lock the FC surveys. But now wit my new loptop, I can do the surveys and I can get more money now every month.
