    When I did mine, I got stuck at it asking my name in between round 1 and round 2 - but I F5'd and it fixed it

    Mine made me skip the games and only do the survey portions. I'm waiting to hear back from her right now since I'm pretty sure I'm 95% sure I'm on the last page.

    I wrote a quick little script to demonstrate how much timers fluctuate when on-tab, off-tab, in a separate window, etc.:

    Greasyfork: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/37297-timer-discrepancy-test

    PHP:
    // ==UserScript==
    // @name         Timer Discrepancy Test
    // @namespace    ,
    // @version      1
    // @description  Timer descrepancy test to demonstrate background tab timer throttling. Runs on TurkerHub and displays results in the tab's title bar.
    // @author       You
    // @include      https://turkerhub.com/threads/*/*
    // @grant        none
    // ==/UserScript==

    var INTERVAL_TIME 500;

    var 
    lastTimestamp;
    var 
    mostRecentTimestamp;
    var 
    lastGap;

    setInterval(() => {

        
    lastTimestamp mostRecentTimestamp;
        
    mostRecentTimestamp performance.now();

        if(
    lastTimestamp !== undefined && mostRecentTimestamp !== undefined) {

            
    lastGap mostRecentTimestamp lastTimestamp;
            
    let deviationAmount Math.abs(INTERVAL_TIME lastGap);
            
    let deviationPercentage = (deviationAmount INTERVAL_TIME) * 100;

            
    document.title = `${deviationPercentage.toLocaleString("EN", {maximumFractionDigits2})}% timer deviation`;

        }

    }, 
    INTERVAL_TIME);

    Did you try turning the volume slider off in the top left corner? If it's still going, then it's not PC. Try closing your tabs one at a time to find the source.

    Dear Panda Crazy,

    Why do you hate me today? I love you. We have spent some much time together and today you are just not fulfilling my needs. Please come back to me and we can make it work together. I promise.

    Forever yours (or until you force me to switch over to Hit Catcher),

    ZB
