holy speedster

[bryandhargrave]

now, im not the best. but i would say i am a decent player. i have over 900 points on tetris evolution and 150 on splash. thats better than average right?

speedster is killing me. i keep finishing in like 21 and 22 minutes... at least a dozen times now. its killing me. i just wanted to state my frustration.

t-spins, a lot of them.

If it's any consolation... I've always considered myself to be a thoroughly decent Tetris player (based mostly on my performance with the first Tetris for NES), but I haven't even been able to COMPLETE a game of Marathon.

I feel like such a noob. D:

Isn't marathon line-based, not score-based?

thats correct. so you dont need to bother getting tetris'. just keep it low enough to keep yourself out of trouble.

this tetris is soooo weird feeling, after evolution tetris is harder to me, its like learning how to use tivo and then getting basic cable

exactly which is why i said t-spins, on higher levels when you do t-spins it eliminates more lines. When you do a double t-spin it doesn't take off two lines in how much you need it takes off more. I'm having a hard time explaining this. haha, i think that made sense.
