It's like the Monty-Hall problem.

Given a captcha with 3 items, where 2 are the similar and 1 is unique, and where the captcha is ordered with a random distribution, which item is the best one to guess?

ie when you open the captcha you are always given item A
The following possibilities then are
A B A, A A B, and A B B
When you open the second captcha and see either
A B or A A you know that the third captcha is either A B B or A A B

So which captcha is the most likely to be the odd one out?

i dislike that in some, you can solve it in fewer steps. three items, item #2 has six (6) empty boxes? it's that one then, no need to check #3.

then others you basically NEED to view them all, maybe even look back and forth. it's more time and more arrow key taps.

It's not like the Monty Hall problem because the second one you are shown isn't informed by anything. It's unbiased. Therefore you have even chances of it being correct or incorrect.

Why would an A B start necessitate A B B when you already said A B A is an option?
>A A B

I noticed that the 7 pointed star is always the odd one out. also,
The 'slide with X empty boxes' is often the first one.
The 'one that doesn't match' is often the middle slide
Besides that, not many patterns.
