Yeah, listen to yo' momma :)
Even though it might be very annoying for you that she keeps track of your game time and sets limits for it, she really has your best interests at heart.
You can talk to your parents about how it makes you feel like they still don't trust you though, and maybe get to understand each other a little better on the subject and work out ways so you *do* feel trusted. I'm sure they do, maybe just not on the gaming so much yet.

Quite true, all of it.
I am a mother. My son is almost 11, and I know with absolute certainty when my son is being genuine, and when he is trying to be manipulative.
No decent parent would allow themselves to be manipulated by a kid; ever. If you messed up, and are now facing the consequences of your actions, this is good. Every choice you make in life has a consequence. Accepting those consequences is called maturity.
It may seem unfair to you, but these are life lessons to prepare you to wear your big boy pants.
If you try to make amends with your parents for the right reasons, they will see it. It probably won't change the consequences, but this is good parenting.
Be grateful you have parents who love you enough to care about the kind of adult you are going to turn into.
And for the love of god, go outside and play.
