Sorry, there is nothing to solve right now.
Please try again later.

Perhaps this IS the test? :P

It's a social captcha solving service I created. It needs some work though ;)

Hey!

I just registered 100 campaigns through my own website... so now, you should see lots of things to solve!!!

Eventually, I will make it so that:

1) people get paid for completing these
2) people pay for getting them completed

My service is different to other services in that it will manage the downloading of the webpages and images by itself. The server maintains incorrectly answered campaigns and auto-retries and dispatches them to an available user online at that time. It will not queue more than it can handle, in theory. I will soon add a user system, which will come with a rating system - people who answer correctly more often will be more inclined to receive work, and incentive to complete correctly will be high due to the financial link. My system will automatically determine whether a captcha was completed successfully or not by reading the response text after submitting the Captcha.

This has taken about 2 weeks to make, but I think it is worth it. Please try it and let me know what you think.

I believe the majority of Captcha's are a combination of one OCR failure and one computer generated string. However I've seen combinations of both computer generated gibberish, usually with a splodge in the middle inverting the colours, or both clearly OCR failures.

Can you elaborate on this point? How is yours say different/better than the services I mentioned in the first place for this :P

The difference with my service is that you do not send the server the Captcha form or image - my server does it for you. At the minimum, just pass a URL and a regular expression to match, and my server will take care of the rest.

Example:

http://54.228.221.163/scs/scs.api.php?t ... ion%5Cb%2F

The JSON response will contain a campaign code if it found a Captcha form - this is to let you know that a campaign has been created. Then you just monitor its progress at an interval you desire, by browsing/curling/wgetting etc. to scs.api.php?type=status&campaign=[your campaign code] .

(Note that the JSON response supplied by the server is temporarily including the raw HTML output for debugging purposes)

Update: It should probably be noted that my service is not a file downloading service, it merely is checking for text on the result page. Nothing more. In a future update, it will have an option to only return the text matching the expression - and the status page will only be viewable by the campaign owner.

Update 2: Something I realised my system does have that nobody else appears to have, is a 'set and forget' attitude to solving the Captcha - your Captcha will not 'expire' because the server will re-download and re-dispatch the Captcha to an available user if it was filled in incorrectly or if it took too long to solve. It's great for a system that won't experience many users online at a time, and with systems that do want to download a lot of information, such as at my workplace, as the stacked requests just re-queue (and therefore re-download) and dispatch to whoever happens to be online. It will always come back with fresh information at that time but not at the time it was originally requested.

A downside to my system is... that even with the correct HTTP headers sent, sometimes my server ,physically located in Ireland, is incorrectly geographically determined as being located in Denmark. This can skew page results - your English regex means nothing to a Dutch response. (Update: this could be related to the anonymisation feature - my server download IP changes every 10 minutes)

Update: Cool, my service works with Recaptcha Mailhide: http://54.228.221.163/scs/scs.api.php?t ... 537.22%22+
