Hamsou, MFM, xoxo

I wrote a post to you around the same time everything disappeared. Not sure if you saw it or not, there were xoxo's for you

I fell last week and I've been suffering something terrible, you know how old ladies are I'm fine, went to the dr, and it'll just take some time before I'm 100 --- that's 100%, not 100 years old (MMB would like that) So no cookin cookies for a bit.

Edited to add: you did see the xoxo's!!

I had no idea what you were talking about The only Top10 I know of is the weekly contest and I thought surely, he can't mean that! I went to look and checked and there I was That's the first time and it will be the last too It was just one of those crazy things. I was working on those Yelp food (figures it would be food) pics tasks yesterday and the day before and managed to do all of them, 100 limit.

Thanks for noticing and letting me know xoxo

@cookin2

Just read yr issue about the extension auto-on & the risk taken when yr son uses the same browser.

You can fix this easily by password protect yr chrome .. Go to people on settings & create a new supervised user for yr son & protect yr chrome with password .. & when you wanna get off from yr pc just lock yr chrome & you are done

There is a small app called "no idle" but some members here said its against the rules.

is it true that the longer you are in "ON" the higher chance you get a hit? Is it like falling in line, and when u suddenly went 'off', you go back at the end of the line waiting for hits ? queing?!

Not true .. today I got a hit directly when I opened my chrome for the firts time on the day .. So the theory is 0 ( binary digit )

ok cool then.. the only problem is this auto off lol, when I go out to check the kids for few mins, always end up on 'OFF' mode. Thanks hamsou for the clarification

Great advice, MFM, thank you I told him to use his own laptop/tablet/phone or I'd kill him Your help is a much better idea!

My CIA friend, bet you aren't falling asleep and missing hits anymore - I remember way back when you did that

yeah lol, no more expired hits during sleep! hahahaha!

btw, sad news came the other day. You guys know about mdr not in forum right? so the issue escalated to the higher ground. They were not contented giving forum warnings and stuff.

You could have a pet dog / cat play with keyboard and mouse when you are AFK / idle, problem solved

oh dear that would be terrible if that were the case No, basically in plain english here's how you get hits and the relation to on and off.

When the extension is OFF it simply signals the extension NOT to poll the server for a work status.
When the extension is ON it then allows the extension to poll the server. It sends your credentials along with a request for work status, if there is work, it will send an URL to your browser and focus the tab, if there is no work in the pool it will keep checking at set interval (if there is no activity for a certain amount of time consecutive seconds it will poll for work less often and after 6 consecutive minutes of no activity (key/mouse) it will shut off.

The way hits are given is not based on a queue - whenever work is available you have equal chance to get it no matter if your extension was off for 8 hours or 1 hour, the moment you poll for work, if something is available you get it, unless someone got it first (then you get oops). Once URL is generated and sent to your new tab it opens and reserves HIT. By the time this happens (during that delay, someone else may have gotten job, hence the oops!) Soon they will change to reservation which will do it differently, it will check work, then reserve hit, then send you the URL, so no more oops ! Also eventually push to web sockets, so polling will be shut off (work will be pushed to you instead of you pulling work by polling). At the current time, it's random distribution - with push to sockets, they will be able to control things better, like for instance, send work to those good workers in priority and those who waited the longest. At the moment this is not done.

Another thing, if your extension is ON but no activity is sensed for x amount of seconds (consecutive) it will fall back, which means it will "ask" the server "is there work?" much less often, so obviously the person who,s extension is polling at default speed will get the jobs first.
