click to win mag dailies. some days I do it and I can whizz through them because its phrases that are easy to read but some days its just random letters that I can hardly see... is there any time of day which is best to enter? just that when I struggle with the capatcha i cant get through them all as it sometimes takes a couple of attempts 
the other day every single comp had random letter cpatcha that were really hard to read

I agree - I find the numerical captchas easy to read, but often have to scroll through a couple of the letter/word options before getting one I can actually decipher!
Had a good captcha alternative the other day on another comp, you had to drag specific colours on to a car - which was different & a bit more fun!Best competition wins:

mine are always a jumble of gobbledeegook , however if you press the ? symbol you can report the captchas maybe if more of us say they are awful they will look into it !my name is Kit and im addicted to competitions , the what if is my driving force

It does seem to be time based. To start with I thought it was if you had so many of 1 sort it would change to the next type, but I abandoned my PC one day when they were all the practically unreadable type, and when I came back later and refreshed them (I open them in multiple tabs then go through them all before opening the next load) and they were normal captchas again.
There also seems to be an inconsistency in it allowing it not to be 100% accurate. Usually it lets you get 1 letter wrong, so to make it more fun I was deliberately changing 1 letter to different words. Then I did that last night, filling them, enter, move onto next tab, only to find when I got back to the 1st one that it hadn't accepted any of them and I had to do that lot all again filling them in correctly!0 -
I started entering them today & bella started out fine with the quotes then half way through it changed to capatcha that sometimes takes me 3 attempts
going to try again shortly
