> But what must have been even worse – and I need to take some blame here – is that while testing I kept submitting the same CAPTCHA over and over and over again. I can picture the poor operator sitting there thinking “WTF is this guy doing already?!”

Perhaps this is why the author saw such a high 94% success rate?

Nope, that was only when testing the CAPTCHA cracker console before I'd scripted the ability to pull a live one from the registration page. The bulk cracking was done with fresh loads and the logs show all unique CAPTCHAs.

I typically have a 94%+ success rate (using Death By Captcha)- and I do thousands of unique captcha submissions per day. His results are accurate.
