I like doing crytogram puzzles. In fact, cryptograms are the new kakuro in my household.
However, I do not like the cryptofun that you have to enter all over der interweb to combat potential spammers. I find it irritating.
Matty had it on his site, and my argument against it is that utilizing it is prosiac and unimaginative, because everyone else already has it.
I think that anyone I would describe as an 'elitist, sassy, culturally-enriched, demi-hausfrau,' would shun the commonality of the "type the following gibberish into the box below, exactly as you read it" game that everyone seems to employ on their sites.
Especially when he moderates the comments already.
Cryptofun when I'm verifying an online concert ticket purchase? Yes, I'm not some maniacal bot fucking with commerce.
Cryptofun when I'm mocking someone's literary decisions? No thank you.

Yes, Ironic isn't it?
I get them every blue moon, and then I get one on the exact post where I chide you for being cryptomaniacal.
But you still filter for spam, so there.
They have KittenAuth now, so you don't have to type in words, you can just click on the kittens.
OMG PONIES!
You can change the pictures from kittens to anything you want, including, I imagine, cocks.
Maybe "CockAuth" would work better than what you're currently rocking, Matty. I mean, what's the point when it will only allow you to enter the first 4 digits in a 6-digit string?
