I recently got back into TetriNET, which is now in version 1.13. For those who do not know, TetriNET is a stripped-down IRC client based around online Tetris. Besides the normal gameplay are special blocks which allow you to help yourself or hurt another person.

This week I am starting a tournament with my Half-Life mod friends, hopefully every Thursday. If we get enough people, then I could start an ongoing league with some assistance. PM me if you wish to participate in the future.

To get in on the action download the following:

Currently I am running a server which is online roughly from 9AM - Midnight EST, with occasional downtime, which can hold a decent number of people. If someone with a T1 or better could host a permanent server for me to use, it would be greatly appreciated. The client runs off of Java, so I can control everything the server needs from my own computer, including the Admin client, once the files are installed.

The IP address for my server is 65.9.156.175, running on an @Home cable connection.

hell yea ! tetrinet owns, it destroyed productivity at my old work and set us back forever, hehe.

so simple and addictive, the competition's always fierce. i did a tourney with my friends who used to play, maybe got a simple ladder of 10 or so people, always wanted more but couldn't find enough people. i'd totally be down, i could host a server next year as well if things work out (it's not like it requires a lot of bandwidth). lemme know if you want help on the league idea :D

gota practice again ;)

I remember when this was the rave back in high school, about 4 years ago. It sucked up a lot of my free time. Is the cheating still rampant?

Some of the pub servers have cheat guards now. When you connect, it goes right to game mode for a couple seconds to see if the client has cheat running. If not, it spits you to the chat chan, if so, it kicks you off.
