Yep - as long as I get the 15 cents I don't care how long they make me sit on the site.

One thing I noticed recently was that the timer was on both sides of the page.  I think I did a double take, and was questioning if it had been that way all the time, and I just hadn't paid attention. (didn't check the teeth!)  It was showing up on the left side of the page between the list of activities and the extra ads at the bottom.  Then I saw it on the right side of the page as well.  A couple of days later, when I remembered to look, the left timer was gone!

It could have very well been a glitch. I have not had any issues with PTC lately. I think I once had an issue with the timer a while back, but I just refreshed the page, and everything worked correctly.

I have never had any problems, but then I will sit and work on the Sudoku for 5 min sometimes. lol But I have never seen a count down for more than 2 1/2 min.

My timer is pretty much always 2 1/2 minutes, just did my PTC and all was fine. However, for a few days in a row, I tried to update a gas price and I always get an "error" message. I used to do it fairly frequently and it worked fine. But not anymore, just one of those things FC hasn't had time to fix I guess. Our fuel price is at $1.75 or so now, I never thought I'd see it below $2 a gallon again. But my daughter in Iowa sent me a picture that showed $.99 a gallon!! Since some states are starting to open back up, I imagine it will start going back up again  :(

  My PTC was still 2 1/2 minutes yesterday.  I haven't done it yet today.  Even if it did go to 7 minutes, would not matter much to me.  Just open another tab or window and do something else while the timer runs.  Or, better yet, Go wash your hands again, LOL!    :turkey:
Excellent suggestion bertha!! I have to admit, I definitely wash my hands quite a bit more now, but it takes forever for the water in my bathroom to warm up, so I end up washing them for more than 20 seconds for sure!

Hmmm now you got me wondering about this! I think it does count down on both sides, but I already did mine for today, so will have to remember to check it tomorrow. I'm just curious!

Did PTC change to 7 min??
Mine started out with 7 minutes, then after a bit I got this:

You have visited 4 page(s) today. You have to visit four content pages for a total of 2½ minutes to qualify.

2 1/2 min , but the timer said 5 min and clicking down!  Beware this could mean it's broken and they are going to have to fix it...not a good thing!

Is this suppose to be another April Fool stupid joke? IT has not changed.

I know it's right today but yesterday it was 7 min!! Glitch?

Update:  2 1/2 min today (Sunday Easter)  !!  Glitch must be fixed!

Well that is good. I would not fool with it for 7 minutes.  I do know some times if you do not check in in time then it will time out and you have to do it again. I have that happen once or twice when I forgot about it.

It's been fine ever since but that one day it was 7 min!! No joke!
