The Swagbucks Challenge

I've just had a go at the colours task and lots of them just had something like Bl, or O as the name of the colour. What they are looking for is an accurate name for the colour such as blue or orange. If the name looks accurate just tick the "yes" box, otherwise tick "no." I got a couple wrong but as with a lot of the tasks they are time consuming for not much reward. They're something to do when there's nothing much left.

When I did it a huge proportion of the colours had nothing written next to it at all, no letters or nonsense. I ticked no for all of those ones, did you have blank ones too?

With the ebay task you need to look up some of the objects to find out what they are. A search will often take you to the listing so that you can see which category it's in. I only ever come on here when the easy casino task is left and I've never had a problem. It always comes up first on the first page. I started the colours on once but got fed up with it.

Thanks for the tip on the Ebay task, most of the items I could figure out but the one or two which were pictures were guess work.

I didn't find the casino task easy at all since it was not on the first page of results. I clicked to open a new browser like instructed so don't know why they can't verify I found the page by searching.

Hello. Hope someone can help me. I currently have enough swagbucks for x3 £5 amazon vouchers - I am wanting to use them for xmas but do I cash them in so to speak now or will i just keep getting swagbucks till i get to my target and then redeem them? Im a bit confused with it (doesnt take much) and any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

redeem them now, when you put them into your amazon once you have got them they dont expire until 2015 and you can ony redeem 5x £5 in one month

I've tried 3 tasks now and all of them were a joke.

The first one was to search for casino and find a specific result, go to the page and find an answer. I did this, spending ages scrolling through pages of results and then when I clicked send it kept on telling me it could not verify I had visited the page through the designated search.

Next I did some task asking you to identify colours. It kept telling me I was in training mode and needed a certain level of accuracy to pass, the thing is the majority of the blocks of colour never had a description next to them. I clicked yes or no correctly for the ones which had colours and a description so I've no idea how I could have not done the task correctly.

The next one was identifying listings for Ebay, some of the listings were so obscure that you had no chance. It showed a picture of unidentifiable objects asking you where you would put them. It said I was in training mode again and had an accuracy rate of 88% but needed 90% to pass.

Are all of the tasks so bad? To be honest even if I had got the 4 swagbucks or whatever for the 1st one it would not be worth my time as it took so long for so little reward.

I discovered that it sets you a daily target, mine was 120 yesterday which I passed thanks to a 70 point survey, some web searches, the daily stuff and watching a few videos. I love the word drop game but the rest of them I have tried seem rubbish.

smells like newbie, common the casino task is so easy, but yeah I only do the casino ones

The same thing happened to me with the casino task! I don't understand what I am doing wrong here as I followed the instructions properly.

Did you open a new window using the link they provided? I think that's how they validate you
