Adidas / YS

1. Local v3 solvers are not solving Fix : Add a new proxy and use a new email in the solver, then hit force reload. You will know that they are solving because the counter (top left) will go up and down. If this issue persists try to use a 3rd party solver.

2. Not entering waiting room Fix : This is most likely due to bad proxies, make sure your proxies arent banned and regenerate a new pool of proxies. Also make sure that if your proxies are IP auth, that you have whitelisted the correct IPs.

3. Not passing waiting room Fix : If you feel like you have been sat in the waiting room for too long, try generating a new proxy pool and restart the waiting room with those. Also try using a new email/proxy combo for your solvers.

4. White screen Fix : Delete the .json file relative to the module you white screened on. For example, on adidas tasks: tasks.json, or solvers: googleaccounts.json.

5. Lagging / Using a lot of memory Fix : Make sure your threads (in settings) are updated. It should typically be 10 for an average PC but you can scale this up depending on your PC's power. Make sure to restart the bot after adjusting.

6. Looping on ATC Fix : Sometimes it will hang when you are trying to add a product to cart, if this occurs try restarting that task or running for a different size.

7. Waiting for token Fix : If your tasks are waiting for a token it means that you have not passed splash yet. You need to make sure you have tasks entered in the waiting room and you have passed and received tokens before attempting to cart.

8. Waiting for captcha Fix : On your tasks, set captcha to NO.

9. Empty cart manual mode Fix : Try refreshing the page.

How to deal with declines:

Only getting declines recently? You can try out the following tips to see if it minimizes them. Keep in mind that declines don't always mean that you need to try the following tips, sometimes declines are caused by the item being out of stock at payment, the payment processor being fried and sometimes it is just random errors.

  1. Your profile, change or adjust the following parts: First Name, Last Name, Address, Phone, Email.

  2. Your credit cards, it is possible that your provider or card has been banned, because of this we recommend trying out new providers or making new cards.

  3. Use the same address for shipping and billing.

  4. If using random phone numbers, make sure they correlate with your country and only use a maximum of 10 digits.

  5. Do not jig extremely hard, make sure your address still looks real and when a profile works do not adjust it until it starts getting declines while items are instock.

  6. Use each credit card only once per profile.
