sergey raid boss downed

Feels like it.... I've never been around to kill a Sergey batch before. I've always capped before it's died.

Last night I caught so many c-sats my queue filled and I had to return a bunch. Today I caught two. Who was it last night that was like "I never seem to grab any" , and I was like "I either catch them all, or only like one" etc? It's like that was prophetic lol

 

[savvy]

Every day I set a goal, and every day I get to my goal I'm like "Well I'm at $X, might as well go for $Y." lol

i want $20 but this week has been $10

i'm at my office and my boss is too busy to teach me the thing i need to do..sooo i'm doing not much.

I capped at 157.

general rule of thumb for sergey batches like this has been that the true cap is 10% or so of what the max amount loaded is. Cap should have been ~600 today but as soon as the max number hit the load started dropping faster than usual. Odd cases where the cap, like it was a few days ago, can be much lower. Generally what I do is keep pushing through the caps and if i hit more than a dozen or so in a row I'll consider it a strong cap. I never consider it a hard cap until the batch is completely gone.

Congrats...You DID NOT win!!!!!!!

i bet i didn't qualify. i set my goal to 30 total and was just trying to get through. hopefully you win!

 

[rsclone]

I hit the button in the top right of the screen marked "RETURN" because I don't write for coins

Dusted off Panda Crazy recently and thought maybe I'll actually see a C-SAT in my queue for once. It's been months since I've caught one. Turns out it turns purple when I try to catch one, indicating I'm not qualled for it. But I've got my HIT Finder set to only HITs I'm qualified for at the moment, which means I must be qualified for it.

I am so confused.

 

[Windir]

Sure is quiet today.
