Extensions in Development • Re: [3.2][3.3][RC] Obscure Registration Code (SPAM stopper)

I'm trying a new Q&A combo. Originally the question was: what is the exact color of our site logo?

this is information that cannot be found on Google. A bot cannot be so advanced as to find the base color of a logo in the css code. However, the flaw in my previous setup was that:

- I gave a list of wrong colors and the user had to choose only one.

With this setting (only one item to choose) it is easy for a bot to bypass it. Just try to sign up by moving a single "answer" each time and it bypasses the check.

Now I applied a different logic:

1. Our logo has only one exact color among those listed. Which is the right one? Move the wrong colors!

In this way the bot "in theory" is forced to move more elements into the "wrong colors" column and therefore only has to EXCLUDE 1 answer.

This should be more complex logic for u BOT. I'll keep you updated as it goes...
