    Are you trying to run all those pandas at once? Keep the number of pandas running at one time to minimum. Run a panda for whatever group id it is that show ups most / is a batch that you can do multiple hits from. For the others you could start a panda when you get the alert but don't run too many at once. You could also consider using the "search" mode on PC.

    It's not a very efficient way to catch hits but it can work well for requesters like csats that drop a bunch of hits with different group ids.

    Thank you! And yes, I think I am running waaay too much stuff at once. I do mostly surveys so I always have a lot of pandas on for the stuff I didn't catch at first. I created a search panda for the C-SATs and will test it next time something drops, hopefully it works

    Try to keep it under 5 pandas and not more than 10.

    Panda Crazy searches for one job each cycle of the timer. If your timer is at 1 second and you have three jobs on, each job will be searched every 3 seconds. If you have 10 jobs on, each job will be searched every 10 seconds. The more jobs are running, the more time between searches for any individual job and the less likely you are to catch it. Try to prioritize the hits you most want and the ones you think you have the best chance of catching. Keep the number of pandas on to 3-5 at most and you'll increase your chances of catching those hits.

    Oh wow, I usually have around 100, no wonder I'm barely catching C-SATs, rofl
    Do you have a rule of thumb for survey pandas? Like only keep the 5 highest earnings at a time, or give up on it after a while? I think I'm doing this totally backwards

    both of those
    Your chances of catching a hit go way down after the first round of expires. So if a hit has a 1 hour timer, you should probably get rid of the panda if it's been more than an hour since it dropped.

    You won't get a pre from too many pandas since the timer on the cycle is the same regardless. You will spread out the searches for any individual job though. It goes down the list searching for one hit on each cycle of the timer.

    Does anybody else end up rating the "do you think this person is attractive" (not the obvious stock-research study photos) photos as more attractive to make the requesters feel sexy in case it's them:behindsofa:
