    You don't need a TO account for the TO script to work.

    Tried it once. Made me talk to walls and think i found the secret to life. It also made me sicker than a dog and destroyed my near sighted vision for about a week. Sooooo a wash basically :p

    Yeah I do and that is why Im prob not seeing them turn grey because I'm not currently logged in. I wonder if that is why I'm not seeing NO TOS in the HIT finder results as well? I'll see..

    Just so you know, apparently it's not required for it to work, but can't hurt to try.

    It's a dissociative drug, so you don't understand you're tripping. It made me think my battery was low, so I tried to plug my belt into an outlet. My friend had to tackle me so I wouldn't stick the pin into the socket.

    You should post a screenshot of your hit finder settings so that we can tell you if you have anything stupid set. But basically hit finder will keep reattempting to get the TO info every X amount of time until the shitty servers actually give the info.

    The TO script will "cache" or save the results it gets from TO. Basically it goes like this;
    • Load HITs page
    • Grab list of requester IDs
    • Script calls TO and asks "hey, do you know any of these guys?"
      • TO Replies: "Yeah, I know Sergey, he's a 4/5 pay" OR
      • TO Replies: "Bruh like 8,000 people are asking me the same FUCKING QUESTION WILL EVERYONE STFU THE VOICES IN MY HEAD ARE TELLING ME BRELIG IS THE BEST REQUESTER ON THE TURK'EMS"
    • Script says "Alright bro, I'm gonna hold onto these results for a little while and not ask again. See a doctor"
    • Saves results, if the results were an error, you're stuck with bogus data for a while.
    He's not getting results because TO is under a load that is too heavy for its supporting cast. Eventually the script will ask again for new results and it'll color itself. Or he's logged into www but scraping worker / something silly like that.

    It only got worse. I just ended up taking my pants off entirely. Then, another friend called and said the cops were at his house looking for his sister, so we needed to come pick him up. They had to force me to put my pants back on. We got to my other friends house, they told me to stay in the car because there was 3 or 4 cop cars at the house. They went to go get my other friend and I started looking through the car because I thought I lost a bad of shrooms. They can back to the car and I had all the doors open and was standing halfway out looking through the seats and throwing stuff on the ground. They asked me what I was doing and I just blurted out that I lost my shrooms with cops standing near us. I got shoved into the back seat and we drove off really fast.

    1/10 would not do again.
