    I know I should know this, but I don't and I can't find the documentation.

    Hit Forker - what do the R T I buttons do in the requester column?

    It can depend on a ton of things to be honest. But yes if you run lots of pandas even with multiple PC's you'll get a ton of PREs. It's about finding balance.

    Yes, you'll get a ton of PREs, but that's because you're increasing your page requests 3 times if you do it on 3 computers.

    You can do the same thing by decreasing your panda timer. Using multiple computers has nothing to do with you catching more HITs. It's just wasting electricity.

    You only are allowed so many page requests per account.

    It doesn't matter if these page requests are coming from 1 computer or 3 computers.

    Btw I can't remember who mentioned Finch Brewery a few weeks ago but I just wanted to say I liked the first one I got so much I went and requested the other two available in my area from my warehouse and they just came in today. I'm looking forward to trying them both this weekend.

    Thanks for the recommendation person whom I can't remember.

    I'm not the one to talk to about efficiency. I turk on a 12.5 inch laptop.

    But as far as pandaing things - there's absolutely no reason to run the pandas from multiple computers expecting to catch more


    Unless things have changed, then in that case, someone will probably tell me I'm an idiot, which is fine. But this is how it's been in the past, and I haven't heard them changing things in regard to PRE pool being limited by account

    Almost all people only use one computer, there's not really much point in using more tbh

    I've been buying extra groceries for The last few months, and it has finally paid off. I only have to get like 10 things tomorrow, and can FULLY enjoy my trip by getting expensive coffee and pretending to be a well adjusted and successful adult.

    MTurk only allows a single account to request any HIT once per ~1 second. Running 3 panda catchers at say 1200 ms each is the same as running one catcher at 400 ms. Whether you have a single panda in it, or 100 pandas doesn't matter either.

    I believe what he's saying is running 50 different pandas on 3 different computers is the same as running all of them on one.
