I understand your point of view.
My wordlist is optimized for all kind of password files (generated by
people). I have 255 hits with this "challenge" list,
I have tested with many others password files, I have at least 30 to
50% hits, often more.
Of course, password like "F5ga26v0" can't be cracked only with my
wordlist. But, if someone has choiced
his own password, i have all chance to find it fastly.
My main target are passwords between 6-8 alpha/digits (for example :
CCbill's).
