Better than average day for me... think I may call it quits. I guess I can leave panda's running. Seems like if I ever want to stop the little bastards catch stuff. Especially if I'm ready to go to bed.

The psychology behind human risk aversion is actually pretty interesting and worth learning about:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_aversion_(psychology)

People instinctively do a lot of less than logical things when it comes to risk (which is what all these studies are testing.)
Take the Sure Money, unless the odds are more than Excellent. Think of all the Odds-Making Bonus HIT's as one big HIT to be played together over time. Make small incremental gains HIT by HIT. The Long Game is where you make the Money.

Ideally (if you think the game is fair -- which is important) you would just pick the choice that gave you the highest reward on average every time -- which would allow you to profit the most in the long run.

Have to use a calculator in some of these HITs to figure that out though. So there's a time lost due to using a calculator factor to think about as well, lol.

Question: Why don't they just cut the mics to the candidates that overrun their time during the debate?

I must be the only person with the qual! It's odd because this is the first time I've been able to do HUGCs.(?)
You must have done one of their quals at some point or did some hotel photos or moderation hits

exactly what I thought. I was telling my dad about how one of the debate candidates is an attention hog and just can't be quiet when their time is up and CNN should cut the mic and switch the camera off that candidate just to get the candidate to stop at the end of their alloted time.

if that candidate ever became president, i'm sure the inauguration day festivities would end at sunrise Jan 21st because that president's inauguration speech would last for hours.

To me it's more that it's rude/uncivil and stealing somebody else's screen time.

You’re asking why politicians won’t agree to something logical?
