Apparently just going for double tetrises isn't optimal
yeah i believe that- you probably want to prioritize survival for most of the game

Idk though because combos and bigger clears prevent junk from being sent to you. I think the pros usually set up multiple 2-3 block chains but idk I just skimmed an article llol

Been seeing some guy from a tetris forum, doing t-spins on Twitch, and man he's making some huge impressions.  I mostly just spam tetrises because I can do them the most consistently.  Never really thought of t-spins until now, sadly, lmao.   I think everyone here knows how tetrises work usually with rows 2, 3, and 4, you send respectively 1, 2, and 4.  But T-Spins can amount to more.  With each t-spin clear you do, it's multiplied by two if it's in the same combo.  So, if you do a T-spin, two lines are sent, you do another in succession, it's four lines sent in addition, then for the 3rd, six lines sent. 

Been reading online it depends which method is done faster.  So, I'm just going to keep doing tetrises.  I only do t-spins on occasion, lol doing them on purpose seems like it will take a bunch of practice.  But I can prob learn in time.  The green and red tetris pieces seem to be the main set ups for them. 

Also, I think at this point, who ever can clean out their spaces, not even trying to be competitive, can make it to top 10.  There's been times where I fuck up, and somehow I still have time to fix my mistakes nearing top 10. 

I've also been watching casual streamers and see how they play the game.  I can't even fathom what sort of decisions they even do.  It drives me insane.  How do people just not prioritize cleaning their spaces and make even more obstacle rows on top of it? 

I think I needed this game way more than I ever thought.  Because I can now truly measure how shitty I feel in my head depending on what my reactions are in the spur of the moment and in the pressure of the fray.  Makes me think I should get my ass more...in line.

m-maybe I'll finally have a sparing partner in ult now?????
Anyway, yeah Tetris 99 is surprisingly addicting.  Even without a solo campaign.

anyway you know the purple tetromino?
if you make a space for it, and turn it around so it fits and does a line clear, it's called a t-spin

figured that's what it was but I had no idea it was actually something you wanted to do often, interesting.

I figured it was just an incredible move to make up for a mistake but apparently it's intentional

Puzzle Bobble (Bust-A-Move) 2 ACA and Tetris 99.


Tried the Yoshi game demo. It's cute but honestly not good. Glad there was a demo for it.

last night i played through Mario & Wario on the Super Famicom. first 5 worlds = baby game for babies. worlds 6-8 = difficult but doable. world 9 = really fucking hard. 10 = near impossible.

the difficulty spike is ridiculous, i couldn't believe it lol. but on top of that, it's also unfortunately an SNES mouse game, and those things are extremely imprecise and finicky. i gotta be honest, in order to finish this game i had to resort to emulating the last two worlds so i could use a real mouse. one with a left click that actually worked more than 60% of the time.

oh also a couple nights ago i finally finished BioShock 2, which is a great game but it was never as interesting as the first game, nor as fun. but it's still great in its own right.

possible glitch???
1st occurrence for me
didn't see this elsewhere online

i was vsing this bich ass guy for 10+ minutes on tet 99, we were the last two
both of our attacks were not going through, lol idk HOW. 
i tried looking away while maintaining my space wtf was going ON
turns out i was vsing a ded man wtf???  fucking hell no wonder
i switched my cursor from attackers to KO's
all of a sudden we sent each other a BUNCH of garbage lines at once, considering I was sent almost max garbage instantly, and won almost instantly after it all came through
I was very close to losing if it weren't for getting out a straight tetromino last sec

i actually did 297 lines that game
least i know now that if I really had to draw out a game, I can
dang that was weird as hell

Okay Tetris 99 is bullshit because if you're doing well then all the badge hunters just target you and you die.

Yet I keep playing
