Hey guys I was planning writing a program for a software engineering class that basically utilizes your wiki as a source. I am planning on using a frequency table to create an app that lets you ask questions like "How many games came out in 1980 for the apple II?". The only problem is that when testing my parser I have aparently been blocked from parsing the site? I am using Jsoup to grab the data from the site. Basically I am asking if there is a any way to reverse this or if I have to come up with a different idea for my project.
