If I ever encountered a site that used this, I would probably just leave rather than subject myself to this gimmick. I have no desire to feel like a rat getting its reward of "continuing" in exchange for memorizing the highest bidder's slogan. I'm doing the website a favor by signing up, and if that's the way they are going to start our relationship, it's a signal that I shouldn't want to sign up to begin with. That's just me, though, the same person that only fills in 1 of the 2 words in a captcha correctly. I tend not to respond well to authority.
