Is there a secondary market? I thought they were just clickbait trolling us.  |

Speaking of which... Someone suggested that the system resets at midnight and you get a few free passes after that. My experience has been a bit different, and I wonder whether the system clock might reset at different times for different people, as I certainly don't recall having any free passes shortly after midnight. Or maybe the reset -- if you get it at all -- comes at midnight Google time, whenever that might be.  I made the point yesterday that I hit the wall and @cooling_dude responded to that effect. Even this morning though I have had no free passes so it seems that since about 11am yesterday, Google deems that I am now forever a bot. Edit, just cleared cache to no avail.

Between 6am and 7am UK time (I'm 7 hours ahead) a ton of stuff on the SM. And just to wind you all up its my pool time here , 33 degrees, so was working on an iPad with Safari and still managed to make 3 purchases with captchas every time. It's all just the timing!! I think we are neighbours. Now you will have the whingers saying why should they have to be up past midnight. Like you i picked up a chunk last night very happy What would happen if you ban us (UK) at your midnight?

You have the advantage in the UK after about 3pm UK time. 10pm Thai time. But most of the trading is done after midnight so people get that extra days interest.

There was certainly a surge for "Hard to invest in" after midday, which overtook the early surge in " Fairly easy to invest in" which would seem to indicate that these users were voting on their experience of the SM throughout the day (or ever). The next time I'll end the poll at midday to get a better gauge; I'll also refine the questions and options to express that the poll is only for the SM during that morning. Something to look forward to when the next large loan comes through; mmmm, you know I really need to consider getting a life.....

It very much depends on the time of the day/night you look for loans.. I am only few days old on this platform but I found that best time to pick up new loans is past midnight UK time.. I picked 6 figures even spread on Tuesday night and then 60k last night.. plus I picked approx. 10k on the new tranches on top of my pre-funding just after they were getting released.. I did get a lot of google bot test, sometimes I was lucky and sometimes not so lucky.. but all in all I picked a lot of loans (All 150 days+) in the last 2-3 days..
I could have picked a lot more if I wanted to but just decided its enough. So my 2 pence is that if you looking to pick new loans, do it after midnight UK time.. its worth staying up late for a day to pick up decent relatively long term loans..

I always log on at 7am my time and monitor for up to a couple of hours. Invariably a lot comes up for sale as investors off-load after interest added. Might be worth staying up on occasion just to see. I've managed to diversify quite effectively over a shortish period. I also sell at that time. Everything goes but can take up to a couple of hours as opposed to gone on a second.

Final score, then...
36 for "easy" or "fairly easy"
40 for "hard" or "impossible"
Pretty damn close to evens.

It was close, but the Poll was flawed; I should have ended it at Midday. I think many late comers were just voting on their overall opinion of the SM, which would explain the late surge of "hard" & "impossible" votes.
I will refine for the next time!

If you make the poll hours 12 am to 4 am UK time the result will be 100 percent easy. Job done . Then SS can use the statistics  But being serious. The hour/ hours at which you try the SM is crucial. I just get the feeling that some people are not prepared to put a bit of effort in. Yes it is frustrating but wait until the hoards start arriving it will get harder
