A puzzle!

[rednefed]

For those of you who have played TAP Normal in BIG mode, you have probably noticed that the second special piece (Del Even) has a tendency to nuke your field if you aren't stacking or making holes multiples of 4 rows high. That is, the special piece chops off every other line; a 2-row tall hole (which is filled with any piece in BIG for a single) will become a 1-row hole which, if played on, will propagate itself up your stack and make reaching level 300 a pain.

So, how do you solve this? Make sure that your stack is happy after clearing the special piece so you won't have to deal with odd-sized holes and stack. (It took me over ten tries.)
Your active piece is the S (Del Even)

Stack: Mostly clean with some residues at the bottom left and right.
Next pieces: ILTZJ STOIJ LZTO

There's a solution within these 14 pieces, I'm wondering if anyone can come up with one shorter than mine.

hmm... this will be difficult... I will try to see if I can represent it with fumen.

I've been scratching my head for half an hour over this. I still can't find a solution, though if the well were 6 wide I'd have a solution in 4 pieces.

I might have gotten an J/L or (more likely) an S/Z swapped in my Next list.
Trying it out on heboris right now. I'm home for the weekend and don't have the setup saved on this computer. My solution doesn't do anything crazy (synchros, Mihara's conspiracy etc.) so it's mostly just setup.
Will post here with a fix if applicable.

[EDIT] The Next list is fine.
[EDIT2] Congrats SAL! Your solution works. Are you the SAL of Youtube fame, clearing TGM1/TAP in big mode?

I haven't played BIG MODE in TAP yet, but I'll try it this weekend for sure. In TGM I have difficulty reaching level 300. I think my best grade is S3.

Welcome to the board SAL! I enjoyed you're videos on youtube too, especially the video with the amazing checkered stack. ^^

Hmm... Here is another solution with 11 pieces, but I can't find a solution within 9 pieces.
