I too am seeing this across multiple GAE apps deployed by separate accounts. Clearing the Captcha does not seem to resolve the Captcha lock but multiple attempts will eventually succeed. Running the same code on my local machine does not *ever* produce a Captcha lock. Password complexity is set high and the wrong password has not been attempted for the accounts.
