Comment(by mikeperry):

 Doing the Torbutton settings change dance, and/or changing prefs from
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbrowser.git/blob/HEAD:/build-
 scripts/config/prefs.js is probably the way forward to diagnosing this.

 It might also be the case that their captcha server simply bans
 some/most/all Tor nodes via some stupid IP rate limiting scheme. Might be
 worth testing in a vanilla firefox with just SOCKS settings, first?
