    Yeah, that is a lot of tonic water. I think Specs carries some of the fancy stuff, so I may just grab it there and overpay for one or two bottles instead of paying $35 for a 24 pack.

    Honestly, this is what I get and it's my favorite for the price. I get it at Rouses. I've had the other, fancy stuff and while it's better, it isn't better enough to justify the hassle.

    Good Day Fellow Turkers,

    ***NEW TURKER ALERT****

    I have a quick question regarding Overwatch that I haven't been able to find. What is the key benefit of overwatch when panda crazy can do essentially the same thing in regards to watching requesters. I feel like i'm missing something because panda crazy, hitcatcher and Overwatch all do essentially the same thing but people rave over Overwatch. Thank you all in advance for taking the time out to answer my question.

    Somebody will correct if I am wrong but OW uses less page requests then PC running a bunch of search pandas is going to make it hard to catch anything. plus just cause a requestor posts a hit doesn't mean it is one I want to do

    So...uhhh... Did anyone end up doing this? I got through the Inquisit part and when it closed it said "Inquisit encountered errors with this test." Just return it? :emoji_confused:

    PC is best used for catching hits. It's much less efficient for watching requesters.

    OW checks the first page of new hits for anything on its list, so it only uses one page request per cycle of the timer and can check everything at once no matter how many watchers you have, but can't auto accept them. You can do a similar thing with a scraper like Hit Finder by using the include list to alert you to known requesters.

    Because PC checks one thing at a time, so if you're actually PANDAing something, it gets lost in the shuffle. You can use OW to track a zillion requesters at once because it checks pages, not individuals, and unless there are PREs, you don't lose your PANDA slots.
