After 10 minutes, 15 attempts, and 3 failed audio files, I started wondering if the forum was closed to new users and this was the programmer's trolling way of doing it.

Was I supposed to answer the questions in croat or whatever? Or does casing matter, and I was supposed to type "pacific" instead of "Pacific" (pretty sure I tried that too)? Or did someone decide the world's largest ocean is no longer the Pacific anymore?

I totally agree, I've seen some hellish captcha, but this one takes the cake. I think I tried a few variations until "The Pacific" got through. I think "Pacific Ocean", "Pacific" and "The Pacific Ocean" didn't. Most likely they only have one single answer instead of a set of acceptable responses.
