Foiled again, Jan. Maybe this isn't a bot. Maybe it is some 12-year-old asian shill getting paid $0.75/hr.

Actually, I wouldn't put it beyond these bots to parse unique form fields and try different combinations. In this case, my Turing test was just a boolean yes/no value, too easy to brute force. I'll implement a better one, with some actual quizzes i.e.: "What country is located north of the USA?"
Of course, that question will rule out half of the Texan population, but oh well, what do you know.

So if they get it wrong, we let them post?
How are bots getting past the "What letters are shown in this picture" question?

It's a very standard CAPTCHA, included in all releases of phpBB, so they made a very standard OCR in response. It still filters out one bot out of two, but there are so many of these motherfuckers out there.
