    Hey everyone, sorry if anyone's already mentioned this but is anyone having problems with the task that asks you to choose the best category for items? Apart from the fact I don't know what half of the stuff is, and they keep telling me I picked the wrong option (EG, I picked > DVDs when the description said "DVD" but they told me I should have chosen > Software), halfway through a task I got a weird cartoon face covering half the screen so I couldn't click on anything and had to abandon the task. It happened on all of the ones I tried to start :(

    I've just done this task and they told me I should have put an ipad docking station under keyboards. I didn't click "That's ok." I got the weird carton face but I'm using Opera so I used the "Fit to width" option (Ctrl+ F11) which reduced it down. None of the the categories applied.
    Don't mess with pensioners. :cool:

    I've just tried the Pick the best of 2 categories tasks and I'm getting the same thing in Firefox and IE - a big cartoon picture. If I try it in chrome, I don't get the cartoon, but there is no photo of the product and there are no descriptions either, so there is absolutely no way of doing the task without guessing. Others must be able to do them, though, because the numbers available are going down

    Edit - I just picked 'none apply' for two of the ones without photos or descriptions and guessed one other. The two that I clicked 'none apply' accepted, but the other one I was told was wrong and it should have been 'none apply', so I wonder if that's what you need to click for all of the ones without photos. Also for one question I got the response 'For the question titled "Which is the best category for this product?" you answered: "3709" but the correct answer was: "176975"!

    Seems a bit odd - when I first logged in to my home page the daily target was showing as 80 but now it is only 60 (not complaining!) Has this happened to anyone else?

  • Yes, they've reduced the target. :j Someone probably did a typo. I've got the target today with a few videos, a search and the tasks as well as the poll etc. I went back to the categories task and actually got 100% this time. I got 20Sbs for all the ones I submitted so I'm quitting while I'm ahead.

    Ooh yes - thank goodness for that! I've got 40sb from tasks so far so will stop them now I think. They're super dull and hopefully I can pick up the extra 20 bucks over the course of the day doing something else.
