I too can play osu! at school and at work. However my school's connection sucks and it's not reliable! XD

I actually got in trouble at school, partially because of osu! but mainly because I had uTorrent running on my laptop. They blocked the osu! forums through the firewall after (only to be unblocked upon closer inspection of what we actually do here), but I guess they haven't figured out how to block Bancho :/

Why the hell would you play osu! during school like do you srs have nothing else to do.

I can't play it at school mostly because I go to a fairly large high school (~3600 student pop.) and there's only 7-8 computers in the library, so we can only use them for school purposes since people will get pissed if you're playing silly games when they need to type an entire essay.

And plus osu.ppy.sh is blocked by the firewall.

But like I'm still curious (Not in a mean way, just in a curious way) why people would play osu! during school like I spend most of school just like wishing I had more time to do things and you guys are like "recreation" like omq.

I didn't have a lot to do during my extra time in high school either, especially in grades nine and ten, /shrug. I don't find it that unusual.
Especially if you're not as involved in high school (assuming that, and not university or college), then you've got even less to do.

Most schools have fairly low end computers. It's all about the money. =P

I probably could play it, but since I have to take my laptop with me everyday I'd prefer to play it on there but we don't have the pw for the school server internet lol

what is this, the 1990s? Doesn't everyone in North America have their own computer by now?

I'd much rather use my school time doing school stuff, and tbh, it's probably much much better to sit on your own chair at home playing osu!.

We have computers, We also have under funded schools with rules stating no personal electronic devices.

Well, I have 90-minute spare blocks on my schedule, and my school's lunch break is 75 minutes long. I have plenty of time to do whatever I feel like.

Most people are lazy tho and they're like "I'll just do it at school no biggie"

I tried putting osu! onto a school computer, but it requires access to the system files and can't simply be opened with just the folder contents themselves.

The UK seems to have a lot in common with America.

Actually, most people go to school because it's pretty much required, they don't have a choice. And by the time they're old enough to drop out they're already that close to the end so why not finish it up, also they don't want to be branded a high school dropout.

Personally, I dropped out, because I already know what I want to do and learning more science and history and all of that isn't going to help, I felt like I was wasting my life away when I could have a full-time job making an income while working on my dream in my free time. I just got my GED, if I ever feel like going to college I can just go to a community college for a couple years for my core classes and do really well and transfer to a better college after two years to work on a major.

I can play osu but I cannot log into bancho :(
I once tried osu! on a smartboard in high school, which was awesome and hard, and a good exercise actually xD

The majority of kids at my high school didn't even have a family computer, much less their own comp.

Then again the high school I went to currently has a 90% free-and-reduced lunch rate... >_>

I can, but to do that I borrowed my friend's laptop so I can play lol

Yes. You must take osu on an USB device with Songs. Start it from the USB device and have fun.
RinKagamine
Wow, I'm actually at school right now typing this on an iPad. Here they won't let you play osu, but you can go to the site.

Our school computers can barely run minecraft at lowest settings so i think its hard to play osu! on them :/

The middle class area of north Minneapolis. Most of north Minneapolis is poor, though. Basically, there are a couple streets that separate the "nice" area from the "poor" areas. I will also admit that the free/reduced lunch rate was only 80% when I went. I did like my school a lot, though. Somehow.

You do realize that Minecraft is 10000% more process consuming than Osu right?

I get 6,000+ frames in Osu

I get 200 in Minecraft
Dekonare
Yes and no. School computers can run any game without problems and they have drivers for Wacom tablets. But I don't think teachers would let me play osu.

I could never play osu! at college, they had Windows 7 running on 3GB RAM, Pentium 4 (1 core @ 2.4Ghz) and NO VIDEO CARD.
neonat
I could, I just needed a better mousepad to play on, and better surfaces. Desks or canteen tables, horrible.

We had Windows XP running on 2(?)Gb RAM and Core 2 Duo until they decided to buy new computers. New computers have Windows 7 running on 12Gb RAM, hexa-core Intel Xeon CPU E5645 @ 2.40GHz and Nvidia Quadro 2000. We also have not so good computers running Windows 7 on 8Gb RAM, quad-core Intel Xeon CPU E31230 @ 3.20GHz and ATI FirePro V4800.

Then we have class full of Macs but they're shitty.

Well the school computers are blocked.
But with "FANTA" as Administrative Password It would be possible.
"Since the system administrators" let me rephrase that "Since the system Baka's" at my school are so stupid to put a password like that on.
I'm sure ill enjoy a nice game of osu! once in a while ;)
Elit3noob
school blocks .exe unknown programs to be open, but on the mac's I don't know how to install osu! :(
