Seriously John? Again?

 

You could always shoot him a message saying the HIT is ass backwards since it rewards lazy workers with higher pay than those completing extra fields. Or be super obnoxious (since it looks like his comm is low on TO) and just script the comment box to say it every submission. The below would probs work

Code:

$("textarea[name=comment]").val("Your HIT design punishes good workers and rewards workers who put in as little effort as possible to maximize earnings. If a worker completes more than one search term they will be paid less than a worker who only puts in minimal effort (assuming the time to generate a term is equal). Please reconsider the formatting or offer bonuses for completing extra search queries.");

Totally worth a block IMO

 

is that the same panda as the last one

How many have you done total? They're pretty good if you only do 1 keyword per.. not sure how risky that'd be though
