Shortlinks & Timers
Automatic mapping, provider limits and the Timer Ledger.How does a shortlink appear in my dashboard?
A supported shortlink appears automatically after its first confirmed completion. Opening a link alone does not create a completed timer, and users do not add completed shortlinks manually.
Why can the same shortlink have different limits on different faucets?
Each faucet can expose a separate task with its own daily limit. GMCO keeps the faucet, source task identifier, provider and technical redirect host as separate data instead of merging cards only because their visible names are similar.
How does the BitcoTasks limit work?
BitcoTasks has one shared limit of 25 confirmed completions per day for one IP, resetting at 01:00 Europe/London. Individual BitcoTasks cards keep their own progress in parallel with that shared limit.
What happens after the 15-minute BitcoTasks deadline?
The task changes to AWAITING RESULT instead of failing immediately because BitcoTasks may still accept a slightly late completion. The final source verdict decides whether it becomes completed, failed or expired.
Do I need to map every shortlink manually?
No. Use the shortlinks normally on the faucets you visit. GMCO maps a supported faucet task to its provider after a real confirmed completion and then adds the correct dashboard entry automatically.
Why am I receiving overlapping Faucet and PTC notifications?
Faucet timers and GMCO PTC use the same optional browser notification channel. Several short faucet cooldowns can therefore become ready during a PTC series. Temporarily disable notifications for selected faucets if you want fewer alerts while completing PTC sessions.
