"Houston read the wiki"
Claims limit now is 60.
Between captcha load, post and post reply, you already lose 1 second!
If 60 seconds = 1 minute, and you lose 1 second with load/reload of captcha, how many captcha can you generate in 1 minute?
Simple math!
The captcha limit per minute is 30! Regardless of whether the wiki says 120, you will not be able to do more than 30, even if you get the miracle of responding 30 alphanumerical and distorted captcha on miliseconds, the system will not respond to you at the same time.
I am not against use of automation systems.
The problem is that these people who are using, are abusing the faucet.
I think a human isn't able to complete even 30 captchas per minute. The "60 claims per minute" limitation seems to benefit only bots.
Is there any developer besides Colin LeMahieu? The distribution process is not so well inspired imo. To stay hours after hours to complete captcha codes is kind of silly and can make you crazy and most important, it does not help the project / community in any way . You could have turned the airdrop into a more useful and interactive process but i guess that would have requested more work and creativity from the one man dev team. I'm not judgy , just sharing a thought

I could agree with you that we need a more innovative way of distribution. Sitting in front of computer solving captchas hours after hours isn't an attractive thing to most of us.
Yesterday, a member offered a different way of earning RaiBlocks --
playing game. I suppose that idea is interesting to most of us. The only thing which disappointed me is that it is a gambling game, of which I'm personally not a fan.

Thanks for the info.
