Welcome to the 2015 edition of the Carnival of Death, celebrating Tetris's greatest mode, and this year's Death Toll. Valar Morghulis. Ave, Imperator, morituri te salutant. And so on... The rules are simple. You play Death Mode, you die, you post your best score here, you repeat and you die again. The total number of levels achieved by the community shall become this year's Death Toll Scores from TAP, MAME, Texmaster, Nullpomino and other clones are accepted, so long as they are played with the proper Death settings (correct speedcurve, TAP randomiser, no floorkicks, ARS, 1 preview, no hold).

I don't think I'll keep playing today, so here's my best since the carnival started: 492 @ 3:26.50 Wouldn't even have been M, but that's the objective this year, to contribute to the toll with an M score
124 42 98 91 137 95 44 110 61 58 73 60 152 92 102 78 87 70 81 am I doing it right? streaming right now under the title "carnival of suck"
If you're going to post your full list of runs, that typically goes in the other carnival thread (IIRC anyway) and keep this one for new personal bests as they come. Otherwise I'll have a hard time keeping on top of updating things properly if new posts here aren't necessarily all new contributions to the toll (which is the sum of PBs, not the sum of all runs completed by everyone).
Well, I guess now would be a good time to make my first post (why not lol) 318 @ 2:25.46 got absolutely raped by the speed increase at 300 though
I wasn't gonna edit it, but I can see it getting messy, I just wanted to bulk up the death toll with my shitty runs what's this other thread you speak of? found it!
a few games before bed just as an entry to the toll level 862 time: 5:26:95 GM is hardly to achieve when playing on a laptop even without locking (time says it all)
Oh god, I just entered the community and I find myself in such a fun event. I might stream tomorrow at 6 PM (GMT-4), so if you wanna see a noob suck at TAP Death on MAME, come by and say hi! twitch.tv/imationer
I can get an M, but not tonight. I got 500 earlier today, but I didn't bother to note the time exactly because it wasn't the 25th yet where I live. It was 3:27.something
Got my 3/25 started with a couple games. I'll leave things with a 623 for now and come back to it (hopefully streaming?) later.
