Sometimes that happens to me when doing a few of those kinds of tasks in a row. I think I just re-click the orange "Start Task" button and go through again as it might not of registered starting a new task properly. Also the websites that have a skippable redirect ad before actually going to the proper page will throw the tracker off, which might make it say "This isn't the page!" when it is. I think going back to search results and re-entering the site fixes that (as the redirect ad should only show up the first time you visit).

I'm having a lot of trouble with the non Bookmarklet casino tasks though, keeps saying I haven't visited the page when I have. So I kinda wish more tasks had the Bookmarklet or that new Crowdflower Browser Tracker Add-On for verification instead of finicky browser cookies/caching. I haven't even bothered renewing the Bookmarklet thing in weeks and it still works for me!

As far as I can tell you're only judged on tasks you actually Submit/Finish. Tasks you give up on midway will just time out and not count. Also for those tasks it's impossible to submit until it verifies everything anyway, so don't think you need to worry about it affecting accuracy.

I've just had this happen to me - it telling me that I didn't visit the site. Then I realised I had another task completed on another browser but didn't close the window, so it was reading off my other google search page and getting confused. Once I closed it I submitted fine.

Another issue I have now is a casino microgaming task - it tells me to find the page but there is no such title in the first 10 pages!

I found the site for that task it was like page 8 I think, but when I went to it and broswed the crowdflower extension just kept telling me it couldn't detect the page so I just quit it.

Thanks. I thought I closed the Google Searches when done but will pay closer attention next time incase thats it!

Yeah a lot of the casino tasks seem to be like that now. I found one for a different casino task on Page 11 and it said I hadn't visited anyways. :mad: I gave up with them last night.... I hope they add better tracking to those search result tasks.

I have 3 crowdflower extension tasks and can't do any of them, the extension either says "unknown verifier" or "you have not visited xyz"...

gave up on them

Has anyone else been doing the "Rate relevancy" tasks that have flooded Crowdflower? I'm very tempted since once you get past quiz mode there seems to be no checks for accuracy. But I think I'm going to have to avoid them due to how often they expel you at Quiz mode...

I have a Level 3 Crowdflower badge but am at 86% after they rejigged how they determine accuracy and after some dumb expel-happy tasks. Has to be 85%+ for Level 3 so bit worried. Sent a moan at them yesterday because of a particularly messed up "Crowdflower Official Job" that chucked me out in Quiz mode with 20% Accuracy because the Questions and Answers were mixed up or had old answers attached to new questions....
