How about creating an experiment and designing it right on turk? You create a rough sketch and then you auto-correct it using people?

You mean keep tinkering with the study until it "works"?

If you're not careful, you could get http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publication_bias on a massive new scale...

It would be interesting to try to find scientifically optimal ways of doing study iteration, or approaches to interpreting the complete (experiment_rev, results)-list from another researcher...
