    Dude. I'm still not really on your side here. A lot of folks seem to have little to no captchas anymore. I'm clearly in the minority.

    I have shitty luck or something here.

    I can only hope that after I do a certain number of captchas, I will unlock masters or something.

    That's how it works, right guys?

    LOL if it worked like that, I'd never get masters at this rate.

    Every once in a while I check to make sure I wasn't granted it without notice, but...nope.

    I've found 2 things that sometimes help when you're getting those captchas every HIT.
    1) Finish your queue, then open a HIT and do the captcha, turn your Pandas on again and it SHOULD be fine, but for some reason it works better when working from your queue instead of just accepting a rando HIT.
    2) Accept a HIT, do the captcha, go and open another HIT, do the captcha (before your first HIT is submitted).

    If those don't work, logging out and in usually does the trick.

    Last night Matt assured me that he will tell Bezos to give me masters if he ever sees him (which, there's an actual chance of that with all the space related shit lol. Matt has been around Paul Allen and friggen Richard Branson and the Vice President and apparently The Rock is fucking coming to the Spaceport and I have lost my mind) and he told me that he just yells it at every bald, skinny dude he sees to be safe.

    So, if someone ever yells, "GIVE BIRDIE MASTERS!" at you, it's probably Matt.

    I don't have a huge problem with how many I get in a row like the folks who were getting 30+ at a time. I'll get 1-3 at a time, but it's the fact that when I'm doing a batch I will get them every 5-10 hits sometimes and that really cuts down on how much moolah I can make. I have a few batches I do that drop all at once and then vanish the rest of the day and if I get captcha fucked out of a full queue or whatever, I end up losing money. Even with kasistos and stuff, all the captchas just fuck my productivity. I keep up crowdsurf or whatever, so I can easily get one done, but it just ends up killing my hourly. I just about cried the other day cause a super sekret batch I do dropped while I was out of the room and I only picked up 5 instead of a full queue and it was like 15 bucks I missed out on because of the friggen captcha crap.

    I sometimes wonder if the rate that I'm submitting/accepting is contributing to the number of captchas.

    It's not actually super sekret. I just like saying that.

    By saying dashboard, I assume you do not use any script or MTS. It is like approved/paid situation. It takes time for your bonuses to show up in your earnings.

    You might be on to something here. I got masters soon after my mini-meltdown during a batch when I got 50+ in a row.
