Cracking the Captcha Code!
« on: April 29, 2013, 12:42:01 pm »
I am really enjoying the loyalty radio feature.  I listen to the "oldies" and am taking a pleasant trip down memory lane.  Some of those songs, I haven't heard in 30 - 40 years!  However, I'm still trying to figure out the captcha code.  Sometimes it takes me up to eight tries to type in what they are looking for.  For a while there, to make it more fun, I played a little game with myself.  How many times will it take before I get it right this time?  (I never guess it right!)  But lately, I've hit on a process that's working a little better for me.  I can usually get the code in 2-3 times.  I look at the code and find the letter that is smaller and up in the air.  It can be in either upper case or lower case.  I type it in the way that I think it should be and then if it doesn't work, I go back and change that smaller letter from one case to the other.  So if I tried a small "f", I go back and change it to "F".  And if I started with an upper case "F", I change it to a lower case "f".  So far this has worked more times than it's not!  There's really no rhyme or reason.  What works one time doesn't necessarily work the next, but bottom line, if you keep trying, you will eventually get the code to work and you'll get your hard earned cent!

I get most of the Captcha codes the first tine.The ones I have trouble with are the number 1 and the lower case L.they are identical and I just guess at them.If I'm wrong the first time,I put in the other character and it comes out right the second time.If I get a Captcha with two 1/l characters,I get a new code.

The 1 or L thing always gets me too. I like the idea of your game, it's a fun way to pass the time!

It's also weird that sometimes the captcha is case sensitive and sometimes it isn't!

There a little swirly thing that you can press, if you want to change it to something else. When I see the  l & 1 ..I usually press it to change the code.

The radio loyalty is great and cracking the captcha code is really cool too. If you miss it the first time the second go round is really easy.

Yes the Loyalty radio offer is fantastic. 1 penny is not much but adds up and even if I miss the captcha I enjoy listening.

it's alot for a penny, in my opinion when you can make $2.00 -$3.00 on a survey in about 20 minutes in you are lucky. Yes, it's cool listening to the music, but it's only about 6 cents an hour, if you may attention.

I love the Radioloyalty as well and yes listening to the oldies, jazz, and the list goes on of the stations I like to listen to.  I don't really have that problem with the captcha, I normally get it on the first try.  It's really rare that I have to re-enter the captcha a second time.  Wow, doing it eight or more times would seem to waste a lot of time, I wonder why you're having that problem.  Now I can say when there's an l and 1, it's sort of difficult to figure out, but most of the time when I see those, I scramble to get another captcha, but sometimes I will try it to see if I can figure out whether the captcha has an l or 1 and other times I just scramble for another captcha.  But I just love the Radioloyalty!

I usually get it on the first try.  I just guess if it's a l or 1. If I dont get it or can't enter the code then I just refresh and get a new code. Radio Loyalty is a great way to get some pennies...may not seem like a lot but it helps.  Still can do it while doing other tasks like surveys. :)

I usually get the code the first time, but I've had similar issues at times.

Yeah the captcha code can be really annoying sometimes. The medium sized letters can either be capitals or lower case so I just have to guess and then switch it the next time. The 1 and lower case L can also be a pain to figure out sometimes.

I put the  lower case l in  first try most of the time.  It seems to be the "l" and not the number 1 nine times out of ten.   I do the music all day as I do my other things on the computer.  Since I am sitting here anyway it is not that big of a deal, and I get paid for something I was doing anyway (listening to music)!
