Thanks.

@DumbledorsArmy360 Just after the speedster achievement, any tips at levelling as fast as possible? (do back to back tetrises give more points etc)

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit B2B Tetrises and T-spins will level you up the quickest. Large combo's can also help, but not neatly as much as B2B tetrises and t-spins.....

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 Thanks for the help, the only thing I lack is doing t-spins I don't set myself up nearly enough and even when I have the chance I screw up on faster speeds, I wish I had the reflexes to do things like 4:05 that was crazy!

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit No prob. Yeah, if you can just stick to tetrises you'll get it. It helps when you've been playing Tetris for 20 years.

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 Lol 20 years! Nice, it's always been a favorite past time for me (about 8 years played on and off) but it was an old school version off nintendo (you can't rotate pieces while on the floor, no wedging, no hold and it wasn't as fast as this) anyways I managed to do it yesterday in 26 minutes wish me luck today :P

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit Yeah, I'm VERY familiar with the Nintendo version. Thats what I started on. Don't forget about the WONDERFUL randomiser too. Would give go a 90 piece string of nothing but Z and S pieces....... Now do you know how the pieces are delt out now? That can be a big help for you too.

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 You're right that it should be an advantage to see ahead but in the later levels if I so much as glance carefully at the next 5 blocks I'll screw up or waste too much time. I feel kinda embarassed that you managed 9:27 without the hold queue and I can't even get it with it.

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit Lmao. Don't feel bad. Keep in mind I've been playing Tetris for 20 years. I perceive the colors more than actually looking at the next que.

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 21:42 ;'( I need to shave off those infinite spins....

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit You're almost there. Yeah definately work on those infinate spins. Do you use both rotate buttons? That will shave off time too if you don't.

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 Woot 19:31.79 I was reallllllly close to the top too! But managed a double and got it ^^

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit @HaloLvl43Legit Sweet. Congrats!!!! If you play Splash on a regular basis, come join us at tspinweekly. c o m. Its a Tetris Splash community.

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 Well I still need the 10 hour achivement so I'll check it out! Just so much work at school but there's always summer break :P

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit Thats cool. Yeah, definately check out tspinweekly. They have quarterly tournaments for prizes and they have weekly contests. This Wednesday we are having team matches. USA vs Canada vs World. Basically you team up with someone from you country and play team matches against other teams from other countries. Can't wait. Haven't played a team match in ages.

[DumbledorsArmy360]

@HaloLvl43Legit Oh and just to let you know, the Online Achievement can be a little glitchy. I've heard reports of it taking up to 12 hours to register. Do you know how to check your total time?

[HaloLvl43Legit]

@DumbledorsArmy360 I heard that two, apparently it doesn't count right away at the beginning of the game, loads, AND THEN begins to count so if you check time played in your history(and it says 10 hours played) it doesn't match up to the achievement time as it never counted a tenth on it. Atleast that's what I've read on the forums.

[georgethecancer]

thanks. i had no idea that the 8 combo was so simple. i wish i would've watched this a long time ago.

[ruffrydasean]

Seen you on the boards dude, *Seanross* here, thanks for the video.. reading it didnt really put it into perspective, had no concept of how the heck to do this until seeing your video.

[DumbledorsArmy360]

No problem amn, my pleasure. Glad somebody learned something from this. :-)
