Ah, cool. I guess if you were really hardcore about it and you couldn't pause, you could always record it with a video camera and study that. I may try mapping one out when I get some time.
I just used translate.google.com on the page, and it worked fairly well. Many records had picture proof. Some of the 99,999,999 endless scores stopped exactly at 99,999,999 to get it to show in the records screen:
That's incredible. That takes set up and memorization of line clears and particularities between each in order to achieve that. Amazing. Simply amazing.
yea, i tried that before...it takes a really long time......... what i did was press repeataly A and B down at the same time with a L piece or or a T piece.....u gain about 100 points a minute if you are really good at it. But after a while ur fingers kill and its really not worth all the time. To get a really highscore u could do that for a while and a ton of t-spins.
I can see how 20 million in catch is possible - starting at level 20 where 500k+ detonations are fairly common.
20 Mil in catch requires an average detonation of 500k. Billmaan has said for months that 20k is doable, but the highest I had seen before this japanese guy was 13 mil. I've had detonations worth 800k before, but it's very hard to have consistently large detonations- a single misdrop can ruin your whole game.
Yeah. if you hold down while rotating, you'll earn one point every two rotations, from my minimal testing. Now to set up a device to ride spinnaz infinitely and get my scores through the stratosphere- any ideas?
Okay, I didn't know that. Now I'm tempted to back and do it. Regardless, yeah, for a rig to do that, play as normal and set up a form of pressure for your down key, and for your far most spin key, set up an electric motor with a small weight at the end of the arm, and the arm aluminum or the such so it can flex.
100 points per minute translates into 500,000 points in about half a week of button-pressing. Who will be the first to max out the line clear score counter? If you start now, and don't sleep, you can be finished by the end of 2008! Just make sure you stop at exactly 99,999,999, and don't go one point over.
Unfortunately, even getting halfway to 500,000 is infeasible for most people. Setting up t-spins at 20G is difficult...chaining them together without leaving a messy stack is doubly so.
