    I am just wondering if anyone has done anything for requester user453. I did a bunch of hits and there seemed to be a relatively high rejection rate.

    I sent them a message and I am waiting for a reply, but then I looked at one of the hits and it said that each hit will be done multiple times by different workers.

    So I am just wondering if this guy is lining up the data he gets and any that dont match he rejects but still gets data.

    I don't know but it was kind of irritating because I genuinely did the tasks.

    I haven't done any hits for that requestor, but given their rating on Turkopticon I would avoid them. If you use either FireFox or Chrome I would high recommend getting the Turkopticon extension as it makes it easy to quickly see their rating on Turkopticon.

    It's called the majority rule, many requesters work that way. It's bad luck for you if you did good work but were matched with two scammers - obviously you'll be the one who loses out.

    Most workers avoid Hits that use majority rule for approval.

    I have not seen your thread, though I started a thread about the same requester, rejecting many of my HITs, I have followed the instructions strictly but lots got rejected simply. Looks like they randomly approved and rejected according to their convenience. Can't Amazon block this kind of requester once turkers starting to complain about this one?
