Well, as you know, the CAPTCHA project's main goal is to digitze old books, newspapers, and other texts by making people type out words that the computers can't decipher.  But how to tell that people are giving them the right answers?  Simple.  They take one word that the computer can't read, and give it to you alongside a "control" word - one that's been distorted in Photoshop to look like it came out of some ancient tome.  As long as you get the "control" word right, it'll accept your answer no matter what you write for the other word.  So, once you get really good at figuring out which word is the "control," you can have all sorts of fun, telling them that 1930's New York Times were chock full of words like FluttershyIsBestPony and GhostCanSuckIt.

Meh, I've known that since 4-chan started using captcha. I also learned you can break the audiocaptcha by typing the same word 37 times.

I apologise for setting him up for that.

I didn't know that was how it worked. I wonder if I could get away with that.

[Meganerdbomb]

I almost never type out the second word on captchas now. I'll use anything from gibberish to racial slurs in their place. Or just a.

I'm not sure whether this is sarcasm or you just being an idiot.

That's just the perfect anti-anime reaction.  I almost want to frame it and put in on my wall.  The twofold implausability of you finding and overpowering me makes it all the more amusing

Why is it necessary?
