they screwed tetrix up....it's rotating counter clockwise and missing the two essential blocks...well, guess that's the only way to work around the copyright laws...

omg, proof that you are too young to be here :laugh:

Lol, QFT.

There should be instructions with the game, but a good primer can also be found here. This version of tetris doesn't include the S or the Z pieces.

Yep, tried it again, and it just freezes up after the first block hits the bottom.

Using IE with all updates and latest Shockwave player.

Yea, but with any other version we can't pwn the other forum... feel free to make a smacktalk thread there in OT, but keep it clean. I'm trying to get people from both forums to play.

LOL. My mom is 50 and she doesn't know how to play tetris. We got a tetris game for christmas from a relative, and my mom didn't know how to play it and she got so frustrated she threw it out. LOL

I figured out how to play.

I hate that I cant rotate and move at the same time... My score would be so much higher :(

We're not even CLOSE to highest player of all time in cali, darkspy from TGN is way closer than we are.

Meanwhile, we're not even ON the worldwide best company or best individual, lets try to see if we can get there!
