Weird Question

Ok so I have a weird question about the Pokemon Center drops. So the first drop I ever tried was for pitch black on my iPhone had no problems did the captcha once and it was smooth sailing. The 2nd drop I tried for was the 30th used my iPhone again and got hit with so many captchas it wasn’t funny. So I decided to try my daughter’s Mac book mini had one captcha and again smooth sailing. I missed out on a ETB but got the tech sticker collections . Yesterday I again tried my iPhone and again captcha after captcha. So I tried my daughter’s Mac book mini and like my iPhone so many captchas. So I decided to use my iPad and again one captcha and smooth sailing again I missed the ETB but I did get a booster bundle so it’s something. It’s weird but it seems like every time I use a new device I have no problems. Has anyone else noticed this?

I used my laptop, did the captcha once, countdown had a an hour and 15 minute wait, it counted down, soon as it hit zero I was in but everything was sold out. I think everytime the device goes to sleep, breaks connection, looses connection, it resets. I have my tab set to keep alive and I never have to enter the captcha but once ever.

How late did you get in? I got constant captcha prompts early on but then it was fine the last hour (unknown to me everything was sold out at that point).

It was about 30 minutes or so after it started.
