Ok so I know this tip is suposed to be hush hush, but...

Ok so lets say for example I don't have a BBA ;) , and I want to have back-ups for my games, where could I go to get them. I know the FAQ says to go on IRC, but what server and channel. And I would use Torrents, but my school blocks Torrent File transfers, so thats kinda hard. Can some one please tell me where I can get them. Preferably a website or IRC channel

Torrents are the way to go, why don't you just download them at home?

Some ISP's come with one, but normally they cut off all the good groups, like alt.binaries.cd.image.gamecube. I always max out my connection (normally download at 375kb/sec) so its worth the money. Btw, if you want a good RELIABLE source, your going to have to pay either newsgroups or a good FTP site.

Do a google search for "Joh's GC", it's the first result.

Not true. Joh's is an excellent site and very reliable.

Btw...this doesn't belong in the qoob forum. It should be in the general forum.

gulliver, jon site is a good way to get iso's using bittorrents, but bittorrents in general aren't the *best* way to get iso's, btw your not a moderator here and i'm sure brakken would of moved this thread if he found it to be off-topic.

Of course bit-torrents aren't the best, but that doesn't make joh's unreliable. Btw, it doesn't matter that I'm not a moderator here. It doesn't mean I can't tell people to follow the rules. Where to download games is not specific to the qoob chip and you'd have to be pretty stupid to think it is. It doesn't even belong on this site at all in the first place.
