Thanks for the comments.
1) I'm still wresting with myself on the best way to handle this. My thought so far is that you "reserve" a request, so you mark it as spoken for and no one else is allowed to touch it. This gives you some preset amount of time (5 min? 10 min?) to finish the task and send it back to the requester for approval. Thoughts on that process?
2) Yeah, the plan is for it to be a hard rule that all tasks must be able to be accomplished using only a computer. Hopefully that + the $1 fee + a "Report" button on each task would be enough to deter people from posting invalid stuff too often, and the rest can be handled case by case. As for hosting files, for the MVP I'd probably just ask people to link to the files elsewhere (public Dropbox folder, etc.) and see what the response to that is like.
3) See #2. I'd love to avoid hosting files if at all possible because of 1) privacy issues and 2) hosting costs but it might not be feasible to just ignore this feature altogether.
