skifree on your website, that is awesome! in middle school technology class me and my friend Alex found a hidden cheat in skifree that racked up ridiculous high scores. if you situate yourself directly below the lift chair and press up so you stay right behind it, your score just keeps going up and up and up. without a doubt I can tell you that our high scores survived until that equipment was replaced and im certain it dumbfounded every kid in that class who played skifree for years how scores like that were obtained.

Glad you liked SkiFree. I actually got the EXE directly from the authors website as he gives it out for free now. It runs via http://www.boxedwine.org/ which can run all sorts of Windows EXE's. I have a similar childhood story of messing with old games, but mine was Doom which is why I gave it some credit on the desktop of my site.
