Oh my god...I was just about to post about how frustrated I am that I just wasted 45 minutes of my time on this, then my poor phone died and then I returned it.....uckkk......

yup its a damn mess all around. the circles are so tiny its not even funny, cant see the letters (red on blue, really?). the tracking is a joke and yeah...they kinda flat out lie about how many "tasks" there are then you start counting the tasks you do vs what they say. i tried to leave TO on them but TO seems to be acting up again, *sigh*

tell ya what. I'm burnt out. Think I made $60 yesterday and made $30 today. Today could have been better, considering all the time I spent in front of the computer but oh well. Learned a new way to handle HIT catcher that seems like it might be a lot more effective in catching high paying HITs that I really want. At this point I think I'm going to put my HIT catcher on pause, fart around on the internet a little more, and lay down and watch some star trek: DS9. I just finished all of the next generation couple of days ago. 157 episodes. That was a bucket list item.

Why does PickFu offer to email you for higher priced hits (around $2) when I have never seen a PickFu for much more than around 20 cents?

ive been on mturk like....8 years now and ive NEVER seen a PickFu over a couple of cents....

That's very good advice! I'm not new, but there's still a lot I don't know. I just started trying out Hit Finder/Hit Catcher a few days ago. Do you have to limit the hits you put in Hit Catcher, same as Panda Crazy?

In Hit Catcher, the more panda's you activate, the less frequently each one will refresh. If you set your refresh rate to 1000ms, then running one panda will allow that panda to check from the HIT once-per-second. If you have two pandas running then it checks each panda once-per-2-seconds. 10 pandas would result in checking for each individual HIT once-per-10-seconds. Does that make sense?

You can run a ton of pandas at once. But the scripts will tend to auto-adjust the frequency to prevent page request errors... So running a bunch of pandas at once slows each individual panda down and you'll just miss HITs all the time instead.

It does make sense. So Hit Catcher does work the same as panda crazy.

I believe this is the most upset I have ever seen you.

you would be too, they even give you a "abandon code" ilke if there is a major issue (which there was). i used that and was promptly rejected. i emailed like...12 times now since, not even a single reply.

I consulted my MTS Tracker, and out of 131 PickFu's recorded, I have two above 15 cents, one at 18 and one at 36. That is probably for 2018.

Nuramazing · Jul 31, 2018

My highest PickFu was $1.12, though I returned one for $1.69 like a week ago because I didn't feel like doing it.
