my School uses blockland :D


 I was the only one at my school(before I was homeschooled) that knew about Blockland. I learned HTML and basic console commands from BL and the forums :D

How the hell did Blockland teach you HTML?

I don't think Blockland is built with site licences in mind, but I'm sure an interested school could purchase them in bulk at some discount rate. In fact, they'd only need one key if they used the LAN function built in.

If you think about, $20 is an incredibly cheap cost for a piece of software that could be used across the entire school network. You may as well stress this important fact and talk to the principal of the school about it.

What kind of price would you expect for a site license?

Thats what I was thinking.

A few days ago, I was really thinking about getting my school to use Blockland. I'd say that I actually Learned a lot about computers by playing Blockland. for example, when you have to open folders to get the add-ons in, I never knew that! I learned how by Playing Blockland! You could also learn how to be better socail-wize. (blockland Is very socail.) And most of all, you could have fun with your classmates. Plus, you learn to build. AND, The school could use one ID. So Everyone would use the same ID.
Post anything else that you might learn form Blockland.
Social as in "AAHAHAHAHAH I DESTRRUCTWAND YUR BULD CUZ I AM THE FATHR AND NOT U U HAV 2 BE THE DUG LUL"?

What kind of price would you expect for a site license?

It really depends on the type and complexity of the software, and how many people are going to be using it. Some CAD programs can cost hundreds of dollars per seat.

For Blockland I'd imagine a site license of $200-$500 would be reasonable assuming unlimited, unrestricted copies of the game for the school. This assumes that each seat would be able to have it's own key. Sort of like how an MSDN license lets the owner generate their own Microsoft product keys.

Assuming they are allowed to use just one key, I don't see why a site license would be necessary. The EULA may restrict commercial/educational use.

I know, I've learned a lot two. Events help you get a better idea about cause and effects, and scripting.
The game also kinda helps you understand how to make games!

two.

Well, it doesn't help you understand what to/too/two to use.

Also, a few hundred dollars for unlimited IDs? That would only work if the generated IDs don't use the regular number system.

I learnsed whta a n0ob is !!1!11!!1!11!?><><><

If the school has same ip (which i bet), you could just use same key for each comp.
