Per the CF rep in the forums, the higher level workers should be held to a higher standard and judged more strictly in their work.  Is this called CrowdLogic? 

We can only work with what we are given - broken tasks, bad TAs and bad test questions will not result in high quality work.

And even IF the tasks weren't broken, the TAs were fair and the test questions were correct, (I can dream) if a "lower level" worker and a "higher level" worker are each going to get 2 cents for doing the same task, why should the "higher level" worker knock themselves out for the same pay as the "lower level" worker?  Higher quality comes at a premium.

Nice double speak, btw.  Did you have a big pow-wow to try and come up with counter-arguments?  If you can't dazzle them with brilliance...

The flag system still needs to be fixed.  The TAs have too much power and some of them abuse it.

It should be mandatory for TAs to fix bad test questions if the task affects global accuracy.  If they don't want to be bothered, then the task should simply not count against the GA.  Though even if it doesn't, it is very disrespectful to not fix the bad questions because it would still affect our earnings should we be expelled unjustly.  However, that is more preferable than a hit to our GA.
