    When my grandpa died, I picked up the coffin urn, and had to keep it somewhere. I put it in his empty room because I thought it was most fitting. Luckily, my aunt wanted to keep him until the burial since there was a 2 month wait in between.

    I don't really understand how overwatch is better than just having the pandas up. What is the difference between TM running pandas, and overwatch scanning everything. It looks like overwatch hits the amazon servers A LOT more than a specific panda, and I would think overwatch would cause constant PREs, especially while that is up with the Z pandas. Am I missing something?

    Most requesters do not recycle batch group IDs. So running a PANDA for a previous batch is largely a waste of time.

    They serve two different functions. Overwatch acts as a hit monitor. It searches whatever you have inputted to find results and provides those for you to do as you please with. TM goes and grabs what you tell it to grab not notifies you when it is available. But yes, overwatch does hit harder and that is why it is run on the worker.mturk side.

    I don't think HM and OW take up that much Amazon site usage. I'm pretty sure it's just one search instead of having a bunch of searches.

    I don't remember the specifics but Overwatch goes through the worker.mturk servers so it doesn't contribute to PRE's like Panda Crazy or HS.

    Does overwatch only run on windows? I tried to set it up when it first came out and couldn't get it to run on my chromebook, but it could have been user error.

    How do I login to overwatch... I keep getting a message that says:


    Overwatch has been halted, please check your loggin status on both sites.

    You may have to open a new worker.mturk page and then refresh.
