    I must be doing something wrong. I see these HITs but i rarely catch any. Have 18 Pandas going between PC and TM. Did catch the $9 one, but that's it.

    You might want to knock down the amount of pandas you have running. 18 seems excessive. I don't do over 5 at a time. Catch one survey, start the panda for the next one, etc.

    Today's thread title is quite fitting. Panera is testing my patience with their excessively long delivery time.

    Usually it's not that high and i only have six running atm. Just seems like i never catch anything since switching to PC.

    Eh. I'm just a crappy Turker. Not doing batch work (save Sergey) doesn't help.

    i mean a delay of more than 2s for a HIT is a long time in turk time since PC doesnt check them all at once. ESPECIALLY for high value HITs

    Ah, I see.

    Also: If you're new to PC, you're going to want to check on it periodically and refresh the reset timer. Or your time elapses will get high.

    edit: Also, you should get into batch work. :emoji_wink:

    Default should be okay. I don't recommend setting them too low or the PRE's will start to spike. Just check and make sure it's hanging out around the 900 every so often (I think that's the default).
