Does someone at Crowdflower actually get paid to come up with schemes to make the workers helpless and protect the almighty TAs?
Hey, *I* can come up with stupidly insane ideas! Can you put me on the payroll?
The latest asinine (oopsie, is that not nice? tough) idea to come from The Crowdflower Powers That Be is that the workers can no longer see the corrections if they don't pass into work mode.
Yeah.
But wait. Isn't quiz mode supposed to be for training? So if we're not told what we did wrong, then where, exactly, is the training?
AND
It's been proven time and time again that the intelligence level and integrity of some of these TAs is, shall we say, lower than average.
AND
We know how often some of these TAs have the wrong answers in their test questions.
So maybe the TAs were getting tired of the workers contesting their bad answers? TOO FREAKING BAD. Then they can get their act together, shape up, or ship out.
We need a system of checks and balances here. And this ain't it.
The Crowdflower Integrity Train just left the station to points unknown.
Hopefully common sense will prevail, and whoever thought this crap would fly will soon be on his way to the unemployment office.

Hey! I TOLD you I could come up with stupid ideas, and I won't let you down! How about this: remove the ability to contest bad test questions! Heck yeah! I mean, you obviously worship at The Altar of the TAs and they can do no wrong, so why not just save everyone some time?
That one is a freebie. I want to be paid for the next one.
