I have just another half hour left (well a little more) to accept the terrible offer on my dump of a house (the offer is for what it's worth - it covers my expenses and that's about it). Hard day over here :(

Ugh. House stuff is the worst. Hope things turn around soon. <3

the only correct answer here is how bad you need the money, but that's with selling anything really

I don't need the money - at all. In fact, I could spend money and fix it and - if I were savvy and skilled, even make a small profit - but it would be tens of thousands of dollars and contractors and we have to get out of Florida (it hasn't worked well for me :(.

So, dump the dump :(. I feel really terrible.

That sounds like a nightmare to deal with if you're just trying to get out.

turn that frown around by thinking about being free from it instead, and being able to move now...

Anyone ever have a problem with panda crazy not doing anything when you click on details of a panda or panda crazy not letting you turn on pandas? Also, when I'm on the page "hits assigned to you" right beside the word hits it says highlighted in pink "pc enhanced mode" what the heck is going on?
Be sure you have the current version of the script running. (0.3.12). That happened in a previous version. If it still happens you might need to downgrade to version (0.3.9).

if you are running the new queue helper script it just shows "pc enhanced mode" for future use. That script just makes sure the next hit after submitting is the lowest timed hit in your queue.

Has anyone seen this before? The highlighted in pink option is new. I fixed my panda crazy.

that's the consensus. It's just - you know - when you buy a house you have so many hopes. This is not what I had wanted. I really wanted to fix it and then sell it (head held high :). Dumping the dump feels terrible

Thanks for explaining it! :) Now I'm not worried

Edit: I think you might be undervaluing your time, peace of mind, the opportunity costs, etc., when it comes to not dealing with all it will take to fix it up and sell it later.
