My school might block 64Digits now >:(

After school, before gaming club started (board games), me and my "friend" decided to go on the school computers for 15 minutes. So I tell him "Check out this site, www.64digits.com," and he says "Yeah, but I'd rather play games," and so he goes to a flash game site. The librarian catches him, tells him he's not allowed to play games, and he closes the window. The librarian then asks him for the web address so that she can block it. And so he types in "www.64digits.com." I tried my best to explain that this was NOT a flash game site, it's not one of those games sites, it's a site for programmers, and therefore has educational content. So, she asks him to write down the url on a slip of paper after he was very forcefull about not typing the site in the browser (he was just quiet), and so he wrote down addictinggames, which is already blocked by the school filter. I'd imagine that the tech guys won't be pleased with that, and if the librarian remembers 64digits, she won't even bother to check it out, the link labeled "games" will probably make this an instant addition to the banned list, 'cause they can't be bothered to look at what this site really is (programmers). So, in that case, I'm screwed. I come here every day in my free time at school, and it serves as my file host for school projects when I need it. I will be so freaking pissed if it gets blocked >:( I have no other good host >:( and, since I can't burn CDs on school comps, I won't be able to transfer anything, which means all my files, including new music I make, will be gone when they wipe the hard drives. GAH!

I skip around the site banning system at school… it's pretty simple, really…

Just use a proxy if it gets banned. Or download a different internet browser.

my teacher likes me now because i described an ellipse and ellipsoid, because i looked at somebody's 3d gml tutorial, no one else knew, i think gm is very educational.

I think porn is more educational

Oh yeah, MrPacman, that comment sure will help if they decide to give the site a look.

My only hope probably is that i was convincing enough on this being educational.

librarians are almost always bitches, so don't expect that to happen

My math teacher because sometimes I ask him about mathemtic things that I have to use in my games. Physics and stuff.

My english teacher because she thinks that every english thing is cool

AMEN

When my teacher turns off the internet during class, my friend passes around his USB with his SNES, N64, and Gameboy emulator on it :D

Pokemon pinball is the sickest game ever.
