is there anyway to spoof your IP or something, like i got banned from tetrinet.org and i wasnt even doing anything wrong, i was just playing a game, that shit is gay

Play on another server.

IP spoofing is only needed if you want traffic to go one way. If you want the traffic to return to you, the sending pc has to know where to send it. You won't get any game info updates by spoofing.
The other alternative is to get your IP changed or go behind a proxy that allows traffic on the port that the game uses.

if your on dial up then just disconnect and re connect. chances are you wont have a static ip

i have a static IP from my campus connection, i dont know how to change it, but i found another tetrinet server, tetrinet.org i think is still the best though if anybody plays, i dont know why they banned me, also tetrifast is pretty fun its just real faster they got a server at nukefield.com
