All,

Curiously, I tried to access BrainKing at work, and my employer has blocked brainking.com due to "gaming" labels on the site. However, I can easily surpass this by going to brainking.de (or any other number of brainking sites!); however, when I clicked on a game I noticed that the images were not showing up and it appears it may be because the images are stored on the .com site. Thoughts to surpass this on my end or your end?

Thanks,

Phil (rednaz23)

rednaz23: I think the reason is that images are loaded from i.brainking.com which is probably blocked by your employer as well.

Thanks for clarifying!

rednaz23: Well, if your employer blocks only domain names containing "brainking.com", maybe it could be solved by using IP address instead. The only problem is that images should be loaded from IP (instead of i.brainking.com) as well but it might be easy to implement. I will look at it when I have some time.

If you have a valid business requirement to access this site then you can request an override through your IT support desk.

rabbitoid: How about something like, "Playing games during my lunch break helps me to relax and come back from lunch thinking logically".

Fencer: You're lucky with your employer.
At my current project they must have hired a pro hacker to close all the doors. This round goes to him. But the fight continues! brainking or bust!
