I assumed GOL had made that configuration change since I hadn't been served a CAPTCHA while visiting through Tor.

I suppose it may have something to do with my ISP or region as well, I get captcha's on all cloudfare sites I go to in TOR.
I absolutely get them on countless Cloudflare sites as well, but I don't get them on GOL. Your ISP and region definitely should have nothing to do with it if you're using TOR.

Maybe the security changes took a while to propagate changes across regions. I'll try again when I get back to the command center.
Maybe, but I wasn't getting CAPTCHAs on GOL via TOR (heh) even before Liam adjusted the settings.
While multiple TOR exits do not seem to be blocked by Cloudflare for GOL I'm sure a TOR exit could get blocked for reasons not directly connected to TOR as well. You might have tried connecting through one of those when you did see the captchas. Almost none of the sites using Cloudflare bother configuring it to be TOR-friendly (and I guess stick to defaults) so that's why you still get CAPTCHAed by them.

It may take up to 48 hours for some of you to be fully refreshed with your ISP.
