The site does a really good job of caching my information. I delete all of my browsing history daily (including cookies) and run a Cyber Srub program that clears out all hidden internet and document temporary files and makes them untraceable. The optathlon website still remembered my e-mail address after playing the game. The only other website that I found to hold that type for information after cleaning IE and scrubbing is pandora radio.

Perhaps UA is using this to limit chances as you suggest. (BTW, haven't won 10% e-cert yet after 5 tries yesterday and today).
