Bon voyage mon ami! We are all jealous of you. http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_redface.gif

[DIGITAL]

Best wishes and take care when you get over there. Don't go binging on TGM3 ok?!

[Amnesia]

Jaloux ? Je ne sais pas... c'est un autre monde quand meme..

En tout cas tu vas beaucoup gagner en experience la bas et l'écart va encore se creuser entre toi et tout le monde.. http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

Profite aussi du pays et pas que des bornes !! http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif

[caffeine]

you should do what what NKI (of street fighter) did when he went to Japan, and post daily arcade reports.

[Tarto]

Haha I don't need to be jealous, I've been living in Japan for a little over a year now. Life's so good here!!!


Jago, je t'ai envoyé un mail, si tu passes dans mon coin n'hésite pas à me faire signe.

[Rosti LFC]

Jago, at least Google Maps admits defeat now, rather than giving you an ill-advised route (http://www.caydel.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/google-maps-swim-across-atlantic.jpg).

i've miss my flight correspondance and i must stay 1 night in London Heathrow airport...


i've miss the flight because of those airport fucking security checkpoint...

i will explain further next time bur for now, i don't remember exactly who is from London but if someone is near heathtrow...


i stay at Hotel IBIS heathrow (call me directly on room 330) until tomorrow morning...

there is a small bowling just aside the hotel and i need to RELAX !


i'm on a expensive Wifi spot, and i will cut off soon no possibility to come again...

[K]

ok.... i'm again on the airport ready for departure... let's hope it will not be any further problem...


i'm using a kind of internet access point that just feel like a big adware...

(www.spectruminteractive.co.uk (http://www.spectruminteractive.co.uk/default.htm)) 2£ for 20 min....


with all problem i had, and everything i had to pay i really feel like a "vache a lait"...


now i really hate heathrow airport...


congrats again to amesia and his finally master mode achievment

[Rosti LFC]

now i really hate heathrow airport...



If you could find anyone who actively likes Heathrow Airport, I'd be extremely surprised.

[K]

yosh !!!

i'm finally here but problems are still not ended, now my luggage is one day late, Narita airport must send it to me so i hope everything is ok.


Currently there is not much to talk since i'm installing...


BUT, i was able to play "In Flight TETRIS" and... well i will post some screen camera shot, and a video. YES i've filmed a fucking video. i definitly looked for the ultimate geek for the woman side seat, but i think it's worth it.

i will take the time to completely explain the filmed bug witch is incredible to see this in an "official licenced TTC game"


btw : i don't have internet access at home, so i'm currently sucking Tokyo university free internet access http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif but i will manage to find a cyber cofee near where i leave...


see ya !!

was it bad, or was it horrible? also did you get to play anyone on the flight?

[Rosti LFC]

From what I've heard about in-flight Tetris, it's pretty bad. You don't even send garbage in the multiplayer mode. It's just whoever loses first.


That said, I think a flight with crap Tetris is better than a flight with no Tetris http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif

[kotetsu213]

You do send garbage, it's the weird rotation rules/atrocious controls that make it bad.

[K]

yoshhh ok !!!!


finally found a cyber cofee...


i will take the time to resume tomorrow but but but today i've meet Needle and KAN and some others living gods....


my only comment is :


this is the verge of my rotting life... T___________T


in only one afternoon, i've seen :


TGM1 : (playing the same guy who broke GM sub 9min)

GM in 09:08??

GM in 09:08:??

GM in 09:00:?? (holy fucking shit)


Ti :

Master mode : MASTER M (KAN playing, first attempt)

Shirase : lvl 1300 (KAN playing, first attempt)

[Rosti LFC]

I was quite showcked when I heard there were as many as 10,000 Japanese Gm players on TGM. I mean, ok, we don't have the game, but in the west there's what, 20?

[DIGITAL]

Geez, you see how easy TGM3 is? They need to make TGM4 exponentially harder. http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif

[lee n]

Geez, you see how easy TGM3 is? They need to make TGM4 exponentially harder. http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif


Yes, one guy has qualified for Gm.. better make it even harder!


*cries*

[tepples]

Is it really advisable to expect this level of performance (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9Rs1gL9hE0) out of a player?

[Rosti LFC]

Numbers of Gm players:


TGM1: 10,000

TAP: 100

Ti: 1

TGM4... 1/100????

[PetitPrince]

So we need a way to fuse player together... We need to create a Jinagokamofeinesia_thief714

[jujube]

Ti :
Master mode : MASTER M (KAN playing, first attempt)
Shirase : lvl 1300 (KAN playing, first attempt)

first attempt??? that is incredible.

[K]

Yoshh,


i compiled a video from the first meeting in Akiba :

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=XcSbM1ho20o

KAN's face is blurred (even if we still can't clearly see his face) by privacy respect.


777 player is really incredible T__T and i still try to break sub 10min...


and an incredible inflight tetris bug :


about the gameplay :

up -> rotate left

down-> rotate right (or maybe invert i don't remember well

a button for soft drop

a button for hard drop


the spawn piece orientation is very wierd :

- the next orientation is not matching the spawn orientation

- hold button will reorient the piece differently from next piece presentation and "of course" spawn again the piece differently...


a kind of SRS but i can't confirm it... but T-Spin Triple don't works

lock reset work "maybe" 10 times but not much more


about the bug :

simply pressing HOLD button at the end of the line clear animation will switch the piece "already locked piece", but the previously locked one that should come will be overwrited by the one on the "next Queue" and definitly LOST.... letting buggy garbage on screen... but it's just a "displaying bug"....

maybe i don't explain well so just watch the video :

http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=oirsOQQMylE

so i let you dissert about the utility of "guidelines" control quality...


wasn't able to test VS

imo the button layout is completely shity since the joypad look's like a SNES clone PAD and definitly have a lot of button available...

180.000 yen. Let's do a fundraiser to get jago TGM3!

[K]

hi


yeah it's 180.000 right now in gfront...

i could possibly acquire it but i will refrain myself do some crasy and expensive buy just on the first arrival week http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif
right now i have to find a game center near my place with some TGM cab

[cyberguile]

you really need to get a movie of a full game played by 777 http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif

[Amnesia]

PUtain la je suis jalou...


No doubt you will really improve if you often meet some astonishing guys like Kan..

When I see the improvement of Bou thanks to me, I am scared just in thinking your case jago..

[K]

Holy shit :


KAN is TGM3 GM


the second player in Japan to have reach this rank @_@


he have succedeed the examination this afternoon.... unfortunately i arrived to late at Akiba to see it in live (maybe 1 hour).


today i've also meet a player insanely good in SHIRASE secret grade ! he reached something like s8 (SRS)


i really feel like a shit T____T


my best so far is m7 (qualified s6)

[K]

btw this sunday will be a TGM meeting where as far as i know will hire lot of great TGM players...

you can expect Needle and me to be there. http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

I so want that hardware to mess around with. In a few months maybe... If only the price is in that range.



As for meeting Kan. That is really cool. But don't remember you are the best around here. It's all you need to know.

You can always swap your skills with me. Most of us know how you feel, comparing ourselves to you http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif

We have to wait till morning in Japan to get the answer. I believe he will load it up to youtube. We sure to check out http://www.youtube.com/bwv1079 every now and then.

[K]

Hi,

There is no video i suppose or maybe i would know.

As i said i was late, and from the place he often play there is no recording device.

the only i got from yesterday is a picture taken with my cellphone.

http://www.the-shell.net/images/kan_tgm3_gm.jpg

i hope my arcade stick will arrive soon, to be able to "start active training" !


http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif

[Amnesia]

Numbers of Gm players:

TGM1: 10,000
TAP: 100
Ti: 1
TGM4... 1/100????



I prefer keep this values : (from report)


TGM: +10000

TAP:

-Master m : 42

-Master Gm : 16

-Death Gm : 47

[Rosti LFC]

I assume there are a reasonably number of Death m players too.

Welcome back CT, btw.

[K]

yo guys

sorry i don't have internet access recently...


i have received my arcade stick yesterday (at last), i can start some heboris training http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif

so far i've totalized ~80 plays on Ti :

- master mode qualified s6 (no change since the beginning) and the best is still m7.

- SHIRASE : s5

i've played maybe max 10 time in this mode (this is just sucking money so far) but last game, i've reached lvl 500 torikan in 3min00sec. Very slow if the limit is 2min25. but at least reached one time http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

so far, tgm3 is just more fucking addictive than TAP : once you get used to speed timing and fluid stacking this is "RHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i love this game" http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

[colour_thief]

I studied japanese at college so I should know...couldn't tell at first, but I just realized (duh!) it says "Jyago-san" which in english is pronounced simply "Jago". the san is a polite ending like Mr. or monsieur.


You can see the katakana chart here http://www.tokyowithkids.com/fyi/katakana_chart.html

[K]

it's just wrote " ?????"

witch is simply "jago" with the SAN word for "Mr"

and i done the badest performance during this tournament http://www.tetrisconcept.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)


btw i failed like a shit examination for "m1" rank and also just following examination for "s9".... not a good day...

[K]

this morning TGM3 Mster mode session result :


- m2

- m4

- Examination for m1 : Fail

- Examination for m1 : FAIL

- Examination for m1 : success

- s5


i really felt like shit cause the game proposed me 3 times in a row to get m1 qualification ... c'mon you can get it, stop bugging me (>_>)

Don't feel bad.. I was playing Tetris DS last night, and stumbled upon a very equally matched Japanese opponent (usually opponents are either too easy or too hard):

win win win win lose lose lose lose lose lose win lose win win player disconnected

That straight row of losses made me play even worse, and I was about to go mental. And just as I was picking up speed the guy hung up on me. I literally shouted at my DS, saying something about chickening out just while I was winning again.


Moral of the story: ?????????????

It's not that hard. All one needs to do is take a screenshot and display it in full screen (F11 or something in GIMP). Likewise on a GBA (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image_3AGba.jpg).

A Seimitsu LB-39 ?

that's it. you've convinced me to finally go out and make this investment. i didn't want to at first, but it just looks too cool. i just need to find out if grape fanta is available in my area.

[sjoecool1991]

Funny, I can get Fanta Grape over here in the US.

I live in Virginia to be exact.

[kotetsu213]

Sure, you can something that you is Fanta Grape, but without the production values put into that bottle, it isn't the same.

[muf]

Sure, you can get something that you think is Fanta Grape, but without the production values put into that bottle, it isn't the same.

Yeah, the taste can't be 100% accurate unless you reverse engineer the ingredients. But because of the encryption used, and the relatively young age of Fanta Grape, nobody has been willing to attempt to copy the ingredients perfectly. Maybe in two years...

Just a question, but is that a supergun under that table?

Supergun being what you could use to run an arcade PCB on a TV/PC.


Im saving for one.

[colour_thief]

That's actually the Type X machine. Though I believe he has a supergun sitting on top of the Type X, which you can just barely see the bottom of.

[tepples]

Does Ti run at a higher scan rate than the 15.7 kHz typical of JAMMA? Or do newer Dell monitors sync down to 15.7 kHz? Or is there a line doubler between them?

[muf]

Does Ti run at a higher scan rate than the 15.7 kHz typical of JAMMA? Or do newer Dell monitors sync down to 15.7 kHz? Or is there a line doubler between them?

The Type-X has a standard DVI output and ships with a DVI to D-Sub adapter. If you want to hook it up to an arcade monitor you need a signal converter in between, so having it hooked up to a flat panel would actually mean you're using the "native" output. Also, Ti outputs 640x480@60Hz.

Yep, all true. To answer tepple's question more directly, Ti uses a scan rate of 31 kHz and the JVS -> JAMMA converter turns it into some sort of 15.7 kHz signal with a mild but obvious loss in visual quality.

[sjoecool1991]

The reason why I asked is because I wanna play Mushihimesama-Futari.

And its arcade only.

And I have a good amount of money saved right now.

So finally this japan Trip is about to come at end.
i have to get back to France no later than 17th March. Am i happy or not to get back home ? it depend of the point of view.

But right now i want to talk about the last event i participed, and that was simply Heaven on Earth for any TGM player.
First of all, we were misunderstanding : the event wasn't organised by ARIKA and Mihara didn't showed up. But to be honest it was not important because the meeting itself was incredible enough to forget about him.

You had to be there.

They were 2 cab on the scene, annoucers, 3 big screens, and powerful sono.

So basiquely this was a "Best players" show demonstration.
- MOM, followed by BOS.U showed Ti Easy mode. (1300+)
- 777 was playing TGM1. (9min12)
- jin8 and Kan -> Ti master Mode (Master M)
- 309 from Osaka -> Death mode, he played death mode 1 handed, and even took an incoming phone call during play....
- SAL played TAP big mode (it is really difficult), and performed a chess board drawing (tetris art as secret grade stuff)
- AYA and ZAB -> Ti Shirase (s13)

so this was a realllllllllly fucking great show.
i was not allowed to take much picture (to respect players express request and privacy no publication sorry) and no video, but there will probably be a dvd release of the event (maybe).


ps : i'm not exactly sure about all result performance, i will at least try to find out some picture, but right now i haven't check the content of my camera and i have no time (accessing at work).

Darn, no video. Ah well, at least you tried jago. I'm kind of disappointed that there was no major announcement. I guess being able to witness all these crazy players demo live is pretty crazy in its own right. Needle gave us live updates during the event and it sounded really exciting. Hopefully we can somehow see a few of the performances.

On the Tetris front your trip is a huge success that's for sure. It would be nice if you told us more about your overall impressions of your stay. Oh and have a safe trip back home to France! ^^

I wish I could have been there. That must have been an awesome experience! Hopefully some kind of video will be available and if so keep us up to date.

These guys can perform at the highest level at will it seems and playing Death T.A. one-handed while on the phone is insane! o.0
