Hey Was just wondering why I have to use a proxy to access this site. Whenever I try to enter it normally I get redirected at http://bisqwit.iki.fi/wormbox/worms.php Is this site blocking users from certain countries or what?

No idea. Just a suggestion: mention which country you're connecting from. The server was relocated recently, and the admins still getting the bugs worked out.

I am from Bosnia & Herzegovina. No one here is really into gaming, not to talk about TAS, so I guess that's why no one has complained before. But it would really help me and a few friends out if the site allowed us to connect already. I hate proxies.

If you've got tasvideos.org in your Hosts file, remove it, for the IP has changed.

<!-- - Unfortunately, Microsoft has added a clever new - "feature" to Internet Explorer. If the text of - an error's message is "too small", specifically - less than 512 bytes, Internet Explorer returns - its own error message. You can turn that off, - but it's pretty tricky to find switch called - "smart error messages". That means, of course, - that short error messages are censored by default. - IIS always returns error messages that are long - enough to make Internet Explorer happy. The - workaround is pretty simple: pad the error - message with a big comment like this to push it - over the five hundred and twelve bytes minimum. - Of course, that's exactly what you're reading - right now. -->
