Hi, I'm sort of new as a requester and here's my "qualifications" setting for a HIT when designing it. I've clearly stated that: 1. hit approval rate for all requester's hit >= 50 2. number of hits approved > 0 but i found out that LOTS of newcomer worker (lifetime approval rate =0/0) were still able to work on this HIT. How is that possible? i know that newcomer worker will meet the first qualification because their approval rate are fresh and = 100% but they shouldn't be able to meet the 2nd qualification criteria since they are still 0/0 , isn't it? Are workers able to skip through these qualifications through some kind of script or am i missing something here? * I'm using the website user interface for designing. Is it better to use the API/developer tools for designing hits?
The 0/0 you are referring to is likely the worker's approval rate with you, not the system as a whole.
Thanks Andy, that was an "eye opener" answer for me All this while, i thought it was mturk's fault. Now i know.
