I'm new to amazon and python, so forgive me this is a easy fix. Upon creating a hit from boto I get the following error:
boto.mturk.connection.MTurkRequestError: MTurkRequestError: 200 OK
<?xml version="1.0"?>

From my understanding the problem is an inconsistency between my system's clock and the amazon system clock. I've tried synchronizing the clock right before i create a hit but the error persists.
Notes: this time the times match perfectly but there has been instances where they were 1 to 3 seconds apart! if it helps at all, this is part of implementing crowdforge that Im having trouble with.
