For those using xp or an older version of firefox for accessibility, I can confirm that the useragent string switcher does allow you to access the audiogames.net form and site. Get the addon, then look up a useragent string, anything will do really. Firefox55.1 for windows 8.1 for example, or for linux it doesn't matter. Just as long as it's a newer version and you have the proper string.
