I can log in fine, how are you logging in?

Yes, captcha is broken - thanks for the heads-up. I guess I missed the last round of complaints about a year ago (sorry).

It is only triggered after you have had more than 3 failed login attempts.

Working on it... @phinn - what is your wiki username?

Got image generation and display fixed -- let me know if you still cannot login.

Captcha image displays now but login is still broken. I answer the captcha correctly multiple times and it keeps telling me the captcha entry is wrong thus doesn't let me in. (Also the voice button is totally broken it doesn't align with the image at all.)

My wiki username is palebloodsky which is an old github account, trying to login on a fresh format so it wants the captcha again, if this doesn't work could you just make me a username with phinn instead?

@phinn - changed your username. You may need to reset psw (I'm not that adept at dokuwiki mgmt fu)

In the interim, I have disabled CAPTCHA since it is very broken. Stay tuned...
