Registration: captcha-solving for dummies
Posted: Thu Feb 24, 2011 5:27 pm
This may seem odd as a first post, but..
you (whoever can) should really change the registration form.
I just wasted 5 minutes trying to sign-up until I realized, that everytime I hit Return after I enter the Captcha, instead submitting the data and creating my account, there is just a new captcha send to me.
Obviously the Return key triggers the "Send new Captcha"- instead of the "Submit"-Button.
At least I can solve Captchas now..
By the way, I have been working for 2 weeks now, creating what I call a "security shell". Basically a bunch of classes that receive the ismyturn-scrapes from OH (in form of OH-Symbols) and tries to check them for validity (in order to sort out misscrapes, etc.) and save the progress of a complete hand in a simple format making assumptions for missing actions that were not scraped.
I plan to share it back to the community when its done (and if it proves useful), as I am very thankful for the whole OH-Project.
