    Over on gbadev.org (of all places) someone started a topic about spelling things with tetrominoes. Someone managed to spell "Jolly Stilts":

    Code:
                I
     J  L L Y     I L
     J OO L L YY  SS TTT I L TTT SS
    JJ OO LL LL Y SS T I LL T SS
    
    Any more suggestions?
     
  2. Code:
       LLL
    JJ  L JJ LL
    J TTT LLL JTTTL
    J T L J T L

    While we're on the topic of composite tetromino letters, here's a better composite G:
    Code:
    JJ
    J
    J L
    LLL
    
    Likewise, the B, D, P, Q can be improved on:
    Code:
    T   T JJJ LLL
    TT  TT T J L T
    T L J T TT  TT
    LLL JJJ T   T
    

    K: Seems you got "The New Tetris box art syndrome" [​IMG] Your S and Z colorings are backwards.

    That U looks familiar... And is that W a Chinese "mountain"?
     

  7. I thought the same thing when I saw it lol.
     
  8. What is it with you and The New Tetris? You seem to think that I'm obbsessed with that game... [​IMG]

    I do like your improvements, though. And that W was the best I could think of. Maybe an upside-down M would be better...

    It all stems from the same mistake that I made while illustrating the Playing forever proof. I then extended it to any confusion of L and J colors or S and Z colors in any game.
