I'm sending feedbacks to TER and I have to pass thru the Captcha gauntlet every time. These are getting more and more annoying.
No matter what I do, I have to answer 4, 5, 6 ... Captchas.
1. Street signs: If a piece of a sign extends into the next box, I check it. (Do you? How much of a sign makes it a sign in the box?)
2. I sometimes see a tiny little street sign in the distant background, so I check that, too.
3. I sometimes get STREET signs (speed limit, exit ramp, ...) and they throw in a shop sign or storefront, too. A shop sign is not a street sign, if you ask me, but I still get bounced to another captcha. And when I click on the shop signs as street signs, I STILL get another captcha.
4. Mountains. I was shown a big pile of vegetables, i.e., "a mountain of vegetables." I didn't know what to do. Check it? Not?
5. Mountains. Is a hill a mountain? A small rock? Who is deciding the correct answer? National Geographic or crowd sourcing?
6. Rivers - I've seen wide expanses of water that look more like lakes to me. Do I answer "water = river" and check it or not?
It doesn't seem to matter ... I still get multiple captchas no matter what I do.

The I'm not a robot check is actually smarter than you're giving it credit for. You're probably using TOR or a busy VPN to access the site. The captcha knows that the traffic it's getting is irregular, so it gets harder.
The image one is based on "IP wierdness" and how fast you complete the test. I'm getting 2-3 of them consistently but if I take my time I can draw it out to 6 or 7 without issue.
I have also found that they are extremely literal, so if there's a sign in any part of the square it counts. If there isn't literally a river in the tile it doesn't count. etc.
I'm not using an IP-masking service and I am not being subjected to a kapcha.
