    Just came home to see OCMP present. Was Psyched.
    Saw that I wasn't qualified. ???
    Looked at the first qual. HIT submission rate (%) is not less than 95 Mine 88.How stupid is that
    See its only Masters granted. At least its just not the submission rate that disqualify me.

    Different task than before. Also the HIT submission rate kills almost all of us.

    I assume the requestor has been around for a good long while and knows what they want...but why would submission rate even be a consideration in the first place...? Maybe someone w/Masters should ask em.....?

    I have often wondered if the submission rate ever came in to play. Guess that answers my question, but sounds like this is news to everyone.

    You can try emailing them and asking them why, and try to get them to reverse it. Good luck though.

    That's what I did...I knew I should have listened to the thread about their mass rejections. I don't get it. Good thing I have 11,000 HITs to back up on or that would have severely crippled me. Also good news is that Castingwords and Crowdsource don't require 99 percent Accepted rates. All is not lost and I can make up those numbers eventually. No more batch HITs for me.

    I did the tagging photos and the moderate tag ones. This is the response I got from them:

    Hi Justin,

    There is a reason your tasks were rejected. You're score for accuracy was .088 percent. That's less than 1% accuracy. Unfortunately, our clients require 95% accuracy. You're kinda a way off even a reasonable baseline.

    With regrets,

    Todd

    I returned this email saying I had no idea what that number meant and I thought I was doing good because my other numbers were very good. So for those of you who don't want mass rejection, don't ignore that percentage to the right because it needs to be above 95 percent or they won't approve any of them. So if your working on them with a score below that, but the middle score was an 83 percent like mine, stop...

    PS- The percentage was the Tag uniqueness...who here knows what that means?
    My other tagging quality was 81 percent...I don't get it.

    I am working on them but they seem too easy. Are you finding them easy?

    They are taking me on average 3-5 seconds each, ridiculously easy, and they are on a 1 day auto approve this time.
