I have a really dumb question.

I use MTS, and it took me awhile to actually utilize it. I Turk on a cheap HP laptop, that Santa brought a kid around 4 years ago. It was $200, so you get the picture that it has minimum stuff, memory, etc.

I then got my 100 year old desktop going thinking I would have 2 catchers going. This would be advantageous, but read it wasn't, in one of the noobie forum posts.

I then added Panda crazy, but haven't utilized it correctly.

I'm rambling here, so I'll get to my questions.

If I have MTS on my laptop, and Chrome, but have Panda Crazy on my desktop under Firefox, will that have any positive verse me having MTS and Panda Crazy, on the laptop, under Chrome? Does using two different browsers give greater potential for catching hits, or no matter what tomfoolery I try here, it will still cause a log jam anyway?

Also, the joke may be on me, but is the "add watcher" in MTS hit catcher, I enter the requester ID, actually work?

If one of your eyes fell out after reading this jumbled bowl of F question, please know I'm extremely sorry!

PREs are on a per-account basis, so there's no benefit.

hang on, when did cupcakes become emergency rations?
People grab the weirdest things when it comes to stocking up, even when cupcakes (or similar things) aren't one of last things in stock. Bottled water is always a bit hard to find in stock in my stores during the best of times, especially in the summer. People buy it to sell to tourists to make money, fire department/police dept (for use in-house and community cookouts), and other local groups/businesses/schools.

I lived through many hurricanes down in FL and never found much reason to stock up at all. Unless we were hit with a cat 4 or 5 directly (and then all bets would be off!)
- we always had enough to get by. That was even when we lost power for a week.

That's not saying one shouldn't do something. We did the usual prep outside (securing stuff). But food? Within a few days everything was always back to normal.
