...

The list goes on. Well over 50 invalid tokens were found. The 'pleaseDontSpam' was the original secret token I used. Just goes to show that, for the moment, most spam bots don't review the page before submitting.

Admittedly, 2 spams got through, I have not investigated why, yet.

sweet! well done. mind publishing the source? maybe as a patch against the pyblosxom comments plugin? also, are you planning to submit it for inclusion upstream?

You need javascript enabled to use this form. Anti-spam efforts ongoing. Also, if the comment doesn't show up, it's because the form expired. Go back and copy your comment, reload the form, and resubmit. Apologies if this is a hassle, I'm just playing with antispam methods right now. If this insists on not working, please email me about it.
