    for the most part, but i wouldnt let pandas build up past 5 or 6, otherwise, you'll be searching for dead hits. (mainly pertains to surveys)

    Sounds pretty solid. But the more pandas you run the less chance you have of catching the ones you want. The best advice is to try to run no more than 5-7 pandas at a time. It splits time across all of them

    I don't know about leaving each job on Panda all day. I usually let it tick a hundred or so times and then release it, depending on factors like value and how many other jobs I have going. Remember, every job you have on Panda makes it harder to catch more.

    When I'm working on mTurk, (which is becoming less and less often, lol) I run PC on both sites and put lower-priority survey HITs on the WWW backburner.

    Then if a good batch lands, I turn off the WWW backburner to save WWW PREs (esp if the batch is a penny batch) and go ham on it with the Worker PC.

    These are not newb questions; I protest

    They are what they are are :dunno: 99% of all userscripts are garbage aesthetics (yes, I am looking at you Hit Scraper you look like a TV hacker screen from the 90s) but PC is tolerable.
    You change the sounds ASAP. My lovely settings are sounds >1sec. Default is hell.
    Soooooooo you mean like for people that have a stellar review/rating ratio? That's almost 1:1 kinda ratio?

    Badges for that kind of person?

    I'm going to send this back in a couple minutes if anyone's interest. A bit too tedious for me to do at work, dunno in general if it's worth it but if anyone wants to try and grab it let me know when you have a PANDA set and I'll throw it back. It has a long timer.

    That's why I have the WWW PC set to a slower cycle and pause it when I'm working penny batches out of queue.

    Yeah I can definitely do Interest Audits at faster than the PRE rate just by themselves when I'm on one of my good computers w/ good Internet.
