A quick question: are you showing each object to a single user, or are you
showing each object to multiple uses, in the hope that they confirm each
other's choices (which is how Amazon's Mechanical Turk is designed)? I'm
assuming the former (as it seems unlikely that there'd be much abuse/dodgy
choices), but if it's the latter, then I may have to adjust my prediction.
