Whoah... I thought there was only a very little number of S13 player but I was wrong.. http://www7a.biglobe.ne.jp/~tetris_holi ... _frame.htm lv 1300 in 4min38!!! It's totaly crazy..
15 sec!!!!??? How it's possible?? I've calculated for my first section in 42 sec, that gives ~1,8 tm/s, so he plays more than 5 tm/s !!
You're forgetting the level bonuses. It's more likely he played at 3-4 tps during that time period. Not that that makes it any less impressive.
There is a bonus for making a tetris. In TGM1/2, a tetris is worth 14 levels: 10 for the tetrominoes and 4 for the lines. But in TGM3, a triple gives 1 extra level and a tetris gives 2 extra levels, for a total of 16 levels. Play at 240 tpm means a tetris every 2.5 seconds and can achieve 96 levels (almost a section) in 15 seconds.
Yes, and certainly he would have entered the section with an almost full screen and left it nearly empty. That's worth about... 24 free levels, assuming there were 4 tetrises waiting to happen. If you consider the remaining 76 levels and adjust for the tetris line bonuses, you get about 67 TAP levels. In other words, only 2/3 of the time it would take you to clear a section from an empty screen in TAP. Assuming you were playing the minimum possible speed at Death 500+, which is about all any of us are capable of, that's still about 25 seconds for the 67 levels... So you'd have to shave 10 seconds off magically. So in conclusion holy shit.
