    Dumb question...I have www and worker open. How do I know if my PC is on www or worker? Do I need to have a set of PC for www and a set of PC for worker?

    The fuckery with www happened without an update to his script so I'm going to go ahead and say that it isn't his fault.

    Also PC being out of sync with each other has always happened for me. They individually grab the queue and it looks like www is PREing a lot for people so that could be causing issues :dunno:

    You can put it in delayed HAM mode by holding the left click on the GoHAM button. This way once it detects something it will go ham and only collect that thing.

    If you leave it in HAM mode it won't collect anything else and just give you a whole bunch of page request errors (PREs).

    A scraper is something that searches for HITs, like HitFinder or HitScraper. You should be running one of those if you aren't.

    So it usually goes like this. Use a scraper, aka HF. It will alert you to a hit and from there you can accept it on HF. But in the case it's already gone, you can add the panda to PC which which catch it if anyone returns it or they release more. Go Ham is an option that allow you to only run that panda incase you have other panda's running. You can also put it in delayed Go Ham mode (click and hold till the Go Ham turns blue) and what that does is, once it find a hit, it will put it into Go Hame mode and only run that panda and only that one for a certain time and then goes back into delayed mode.

    www is borked with panda's so I would only use worker for pandas right now. And the link you use will tell you if it's on www or worker. The worker one is:

    Keep in mind that the PC's, whether you use them on www or worker, each default at refreshing every 40 seconds. You could have a refresh on one, PRE on the other, and I'm not sure if it tries again on the PRE or waits another 40 seconds.

    I went to take a break from the TGrind and went out to clean the pool, hurricane Nate left a bit of a mess. There was a black widow on my filter. Ok, pool's clean enough. Back to the safety of the Turk.

    I usually leave it in delayed ham mode

    A scraper is anything that searches www or worker to display hits for you

    The link you use
    Code:
    https://worker.mturk.com/?filters[search_term]=pandacrazy=on
    or

    I enjoyed that lame "wow has anyone seen this?" title on a brand new account registered 20 minutes before as if it wasn't the person who put it up coming to spam his stuff.

    Dude should at least have the decency to spam his site covertly by making his username the domain like I do. The nerve of some people :emoji_grin:

    I need my glasses for distance, so I don't have direct experience with your particular thing.

    Adding to others about pandas, if you have more than one collecting at a time it will go round robin style so the more you have running the less chance you'll pick up something others want.
