    Okay, maybe this is a dumb question, but I have a super old mac desktop I'm working from and it's pretty slow. I started at 7:15 EST and only got 13 Zs (and I was running GoHAM on the one that everyone was getting), is it possible that my slow computer is the reason everyone is getting more? Or am I just unlucky or what?

    I get it when I am running too many Pandas. Sometimes spacing out my pandas works for me. Sometimes nothing I do seems to make a difference.

    Any script that refreshes a page will do it, including Queue Order Fix which takes two refreshes when working from your queue.

    You have the best way of phrasing things sometimes dude, I love it. But honestly I wouldn't get too frustrated. Most folks making $300/week are putting in a lot of hours and treating this as serious source of income, and getting to that level is incredibly difficult since the learning curve is massive and building a reputable account where you have a buffer for rejections, closed quals, and connections to other workers takes time & patience that no amount of reading can make up for.

    I usually just try to compare to how I did last week, pay no mind to what other folks are doing except where you can learn from it:emoji_mortar_board:
