Not necessarily a bug on GB's part, but for a while now, the captcha process to log in has been uncooperative. I'm getting a version where the images disappear and reappear incredibly slowly, and even after accurately identifying everything, it says "Please try again" and proceeds to give me a set of about six-to-eight additional tests. Like, isn't the whole point of this to teach their robots what shit looks like because they're not sure in the first place?
In recent days, I've occasionally (rarely) gotten a captcha that works properly, with either quickly refreshing images or only being required to do a single screen of testing. Not sure what causes these different versions to appear, though, if anything. This could certainly just be neglect on Google's part (and the cynic in me says it's an intentional oversight that provides them more information than normal), but it's regularly taking me 10 minutes just to log in regardless.
