My latest video (GM @ 12'00"73)

Played with Texmaster (look it up on Tetrisconcept if you're interested enough). I doubt any of you here could reach GM, unfortunately, but if you're interested I can try helping you out. :\

Nothing special, but I'll make it to GM eventually.

I'm not fast enough. Besides, it was using the SRS set. If I didn't have issues with the wallkick system that TGM/Heboris uses, I'd be fine...but I just don't f*cking get it.

Funny thing is, SRS is a lot slower than ARS.

I personally find Ti's ARS variant to be the best (goodbye, bullshit, you will not be missed) ... but eh

For the interested, this clone is Texmaster. Probably the closest clone you'd get to TGM1.

Do yourself a favor and paste this into the INI over the stuff already there: 
mode1 = Novice

mode2 = TGM1

mode3 = TGM2+

mode4 = TGM2 M

mode5 = TA DEATH

mode6 = DOUBLES

mode7 = TGM3 M

mode8 = TGM3 S

This was a different version of Heboris too. I prefered using TI-World when I could. It was about what I could take in terms of speed.

Drag's Post #931
I usually play SRS in Heboris, but I wouldn't be surprised if the reason I'm so good with it is because it's sucktastic or something... usually happens with me.

I die on level 900 though, the pieces just lock down too quickly for me to react.

The problem I keep having with Heboris which baffles me is that I have *lots* of problems rotating L and J, in that I press the button wanting them to rotate one way, but they end up rotating the other way. Happens with some systems, not with others, and I had to reverse the cw and ccw buttons before I finally got it right. *shrug*

May as well update here.




Current records:



I'm 31st in TetrisConcept's TAP Master leaderboard, up from 37th earlier this year. I'll probably top out at 16th at best. Pun intended.


Not that anybody else here plays it

So I asked a question about the Sonic Drop malfunctioning in #arika (which it wasn't, I was just hitting it too fast) and well, then I went on to play my best game of TGM2 Master yet. The music stopped and I knew I had gotten past my old record and I had a clean uniform board at this point, and I kept saying in my head "I won't freak out I won't freak out" but sure as hell, my heart starts thumping wildly and my mind starts racing. The new music picks up and...OH GOD LONG PIECE DOESNT GO THERE WHATS HAPPENING ADRENALINE FFFFFFFFF!



Christ.



Sigh~

I can't play well at anything higher than 1G...once I hit lv.300 I start screwing up really badly. :\

Best I've gotten is S4 in Texmaster TGM1 mode and 1 in TGM2 Master mode.

...yeah, that's about the best I can muster, it seems.
Although I am feeling a bit sick right now, so maybe I can get some better results at another time...?

Does Texmaster emulate the TGM3 promotion exams? I may have to see just how close to a [9] I am if it does... ;;;

You do realize that getting two tetrises would all but gaurentee at least an 8, right?

Yeah, but who said I'd be guaranteed to get even that? I have gotten [9]'s in TGM1, you know... ;;;;

Oh, shut up and look at my best TGM2 Master score in Texmaster (it's "Special"):


I already told you, several of my games end in 9s (or 8s), it isn't a rare occurance.

[sighs]

I need to work on my structuring a bit more. I only now figured out that holding a button down prior to piece launch will change the way it spawns on the board. That would've been great to know over the years.

You... didn't know that?



That explains a lot. Just practice using it now

Let me reiterate...

NO I FUCKING DIDN'T KNOW AND I BROKE THE BACK OF MY KEYBOARD OUT OF FRUSTRATION OF THIS FACT!

I seriously need to buy one...right now.

In fact...
