The negative TO is related to a different batch. One which had to do with product categorization (and my understanding is those rejections got overturned). I've done 3 batches of these and all have approved.
I read a post in a forum recently about a student doing some kind of research study on mturk users or something like that; over at reddit or mtg; she/he said they had been a member about a year or so. I'll look for it.
Check that, today's batch hasn't approved. But the ones I've done before have approved.a I think it's 1 day AA... don't have that script running.
I'd be willing to bet that the difference in quality between masters and non-masters happens at the bottom of the barrel and not at the top.
No, they just re-upped the package. (said this in my Avon Barksdale voice). Raised the price again. Oh yeah. Good thing I'm going to bed.

These Cornell researchers agree with you - http://arxiv.org/ftp/arxiv/papers/1406/1406.7588.pdf Note that they found unskilled mturk workers performed better than graduate students at doing their engineering tasks.
What's up ya'll? Hope everyone's having a profitable night. I just snagged Generate captions for memes about MTurk for a given image - IIS from this panda: Oh wait... it was this one: https://www.mturk.com/mturk/previewandaccept?groupId=3KAZLCS3E8CXQAJOJ1O1R2LDX8VAPM Has anyone done it? No rating on TO.
Those tasks were stupid easy, so Im not really sure what that proves. Maybe I should have got my degree in engineering I guess?
