One modest step forwards... m, 999 @ 8:44:06. Had probably 45 tetrises that game. S9 right as I hit 900. Edit: made a third m. But it's in between the two records.
I didn't beat you lol (I would have if it wasn't for an ENORMOUS mistake at 960 making me stop locking until 990 ) btw, played 5 games, got 2 m rank and a sub 8.45 S9 getting rather regular
S8 @ 9:38:91 Good things start to happen if you can focus on the game for once I still have much to learn, but for now i am very happy with this run.
Congratulations! Personally I'm still sitting at S7, although I've had much more consistency in getting higher ranks.
Thanks! I remember getting S9 with a keyboard in texmaster almost a year ago.. took me long enough to catch up with a stick
Hi, i'm new. Just thought i would throw some of my better games out there. I've hit S9 but, never got a complete with it. My biggest issue right now is getting my time down. But yeah, any constructive thoughts are welcome! Thanks! P.S. - sorry about the thumbnails, i gotta get a new photobucket account.
Holy crap, S9 player out of nowhere! Haha. You don't see that every day. Welcome to the boards. If you're looking for comments on your play and have any videos or replay files, feel free to link them. I'm sure someone would be happy to run through them and give tips.
Welcome and congrats! For now I've added the S8 from the screenshot. I'll add you as S9 later. Any more details you can perhaps share about that game before I do so? Try to clear the game before attempting faster times. You don't have to necessarily post videos. Describing what you struggle with is also good if you can. Looks like you play on the real thing with stick. If so not bad time at all.
S1, 657 @ 8:22:81 please. I think I am on the edge of a surge, hopefully - more locking and more tetrises into 20G now. Bronze SK in pretty much every run but the silver still eludes for the moment.
Good! Once you get better and play more, you will get bronze SK every run before level 200, silver SK anywhere from 325-500 depending on how conservative you play. Since it looks like you're already breaking into 20G, I suggest training in Death or TGM1 20G mode to improve your records.
Yep, I'm quite encouraged. That run felt very tidy and controlled until the final speedups caught me out. I guess it must have been conservative as the time doesn't seem fantastic from the scores here. It's funny you mention Death mode, I hadn't touched it until the Carnival of Death but concentrated practice on that helped get a footing on 20G and I still go back to it often. I also like NullpoMino's Time Attack 2 which is 150 lines of 20G, I can complete that around 7 mins on average, currently. I wish it had a Time Attack 3 that finished with shorter piece delays, that would be great for where I am now - the next step up is Another which destroys me within seconds. I will take a look at TGM 20G, thanks.
New time, 8:27 even! On a PCB! ... No video, no stats. Here's the short version: made S9 crossing the finish line, epic credit roll failure. Didn't even make 30 seconds of it. It caught me completely off guard.
--mfm005-----------------S9 - 999 @ 09:01:65 - 05/30/10 - Orange line Still can't believe it... almost 30 seconds thanks to the lag free tgm mame... Thanks Amnesia too for your support.
