Bauer Captchas

Options
For some reason, everytime I enter a bauer radio comp today, the captcha has gone from readable road names/door numbers to gibberish!!

Its driving me insane because instead of doing my 30 entries in a few minutes, it's taking me so much longer because the captcha's have gone stupidly difficult :mad:

    I normally get the road signs so I hit refresh and get the easy-peasy numbers

    This is something that used to happen with captchas if you hit refresh too often/made lots of entries (or a combination of the two), presumably a suspected auto entry trigger.

    I dont usually have a problem with these captchas - it is the photo captachas I hate eg, click on the candy, click on the road signs (when you cannot hardly make out what is in the photos!)
    :TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea

  • I'm useless at the captchas. If I had to pick a favourite kind it would be the door numbers and then the picture ones. With the jumbled up letters, sometimes you need uppercase for the uppercase letters but sometimes you don't - very time consuming. Also, I don't really like the reveal 'Birdie Putt' ones. Is it just me or does anyone else get 'Birdie Putt' 95% of the time? The times I don't is when I type Birdie Putt in preparation for the big reveal and then it turns out to be 'Fish Tacos' :)
