It's not exactly a secret.
Just find the darkest pixel. That's not the method we use in Abrosia but it's a decent method anyway.

...or committed in someway.
That's my precise intention, my friend.

I do believe we have the ocr tackled pretty well
100% accuracy is pretty well tackled, I agree. Although the one we currently use is only ~99.7% when we tested it.

Hmm... now I'm curious. Do you guys search for the sharpest contrast between neighboring pixels?
We're not going to tell you how we do it...that would kind of negate the point of us taking the time and effort to do it.

It's about as fast but more accurate (maybe 10-20ms slower), we regard that to be a decent balance.
I'm assuming it's faster, else they wouldn't use it.
The darkest pixel method can work in like 1ms, it's difficult to get faster than that. We're talking about such minuscule periods of time though that it really doesn't make any difference in the buy process and a ~1% increase in accuracy is a lot more valuable than those few milliseconds lost.

This mentality of "trade secrets" is really annoying and counterproductive. Open source is the path forward, and those not embracing open source are hurting the community they claim to be helping.
I wrote a darkest pixel code and will release it to the public.
I don't see what you gain by keeping this a secret. Maybe pride? but its not like you can't be a 1337 programmer and not release your methods or strategies, or even code.
When Galileo discovered the world was not flat, did he say "oh, I know the worlds not flat, but no one else does, so I'm elite, and going to keep it that way". No, he said the world should know so we can evolve.
Communities work together, not keep secrets from each other. So I guess neocodex isn't a community like it's spouse to be.

Um...the last post here was in June of 2011, over 3 years ago. I doubt anyone here really remembers this topic too well anymore, and pretty much everyone has already left this conversation (since the last time anyone posted about it was 3 years ago).

Not really.
So I just wrote my first captcha solver yesterday using information I got from this thread, and it works, and I have autobuyed with it, yet its not relevant?
Granted Main Shop ABing is overrated, but its relevant because I was able to use this information to accomplish a goal...

It's fine that you made your own program with the information here, but since this is a 3 year old topic, and basically no one has talked about it for 3 whole years, this topic/thread is no longer relevant. It's not that what you've done isn't relevant, it's just that this topic is too old now.
Anyone who posted during the time this thread was going, 2011, has not posted since, and thus has had no interests in the thread anymore.
