    OK, am I the first or the last to notice that the places which look available are actually the places taken? If I hover over the number of places I get, for instance, this:
    Total available places 250
    Places taken 250
    Places available 0

    Misleading, much!

    That is true, but even so I still find myself with "survey unavailable" way too frequently for my taste.

    I just can't do any studies at the moment. They appear, quite high-paying ones as well, with availability, but when I click "Reserve place" I get an error. Every time.

    Is it just because they are filling up too fast? I can't do it any faster.

    I think so - I've had quite a few where it shows up there's a survey but all the places are taken or very close to being taken :/
