    There's an update to panda crazy helper make sure you have it.

    If you use this url for your worker PC https://www.mturk.com/mturk/welcome?pandacrazy=on&usenewsite=yes
    - then there will be buttons on the WWW site - and these buttons will add pandas to both your worker PC and regular PC if they're both open, however there will be no buttons on the worker site.


    If you use this site for your worker PC
    https://worker.mturk.com/?filters[search_term]=pandacrazy=on

    Then there will be buttons on the WORKER site which will add it to the worker PC - but the buttons on the WWW site will only add it to the regular www PC (if regular PC is open of course)



    So if you're working on the www site, but want the buttons to send the pandas to the worker PC - then use the top link.

    If you're using the worker site, then use the bottom link.

    Thank you. I got it to work with the top link but I am going to go ahead and stay with the bottom link after all.

    I guess Hit Finder is not linking to the worker site even though it says it is?

    Yes, thanks.

    Hit finder is searching the worker site to scrape the HITs - but when you click them, they are www links.

    While this was a good idea at the time this will likely break hit finder until it is updated.

    Well you could always just copy a paste the panda link into PC so it would still work but :dunno: . Overwatch on the other hand already has the option for worker panda links.

    So I set up overwatch and ran a test. Is anyone willing to give feedback on my settings? I am not seeing what's so great about it. I may not be understanding it fully or using it properly. I did watch the instruction video.

    Make the interval like 2 or 3 seconds or less. That way as soon as one of your watchers posts - you'll be able to grab it.

    Basically it'll search the first page of the new HITs on nmturk search at whatever your interval is. So when a new HIT shows up that matches one of your watchers - it'll alert you. So if you add c-sats - and they post - it'll yell at you that c-sats just posted, so then you can click accept on whatever hitID they post and try to beat everyone else to them.

    LLL and I have been using 6 seconds. Something as low as 3 seconds would make PC slow down a bunch.
