damn i used to play blue shift at school when i was in middle school, good times. my computer was positioned in a way where the teacher would like never walk by it so it was pretty easy to not get caught.

My district has people monitoring the internet, but it can't monitor individual computer screens. My friends and I use the LAN ( UDP ) option of battlenet so there's no way we can be caught. We're essentially using the school's LAN. This way we're not doing anything illegal either (we signed a form that said we would not use the internet for games, but we're using our flash drives + lan).

I heart the intranet

No they cant catch you unless you install something on the network drives or if they notice you taking up a lot of bandwidth i think

They can't catch you and they won't care anyway.

My friends and I randomly play in the computer lab during classes (that we're skipping) and the comp sci teacher doesn't even care haha. Seniors + end of the year ftw

It all depends on you teacher. If she's a bitch, then don't do it. If she's lax, then do it. If she's somewhere in between, then subtly do it.

They can't monitor every computer to that degree, it would cause too much data traffic.

What WOULD set things off is if you had enormous amounts of data going only to your pc. However, SC never lagged anyone on dialup back in the day, so it wouldn't be suspicious.

That being said, I've been doing it for years. From high school into college (I've got multiple thumbdrives). Theres no point in playing online however, you can't get port forwarding to work so your best bet is to play on LAN or online by yourself.

Haha. My final for AP Comp Sci during first semester was to participate in one of the following activities: Counter Strike, Starcraft, Halo, Playstation 2 (dunno what game), or Star Wars Jedi Knight. Unfortunately, administrators caught on. Second semester we had to actually do work and the subsequent year, the class was canceled.

Best class ever.
