Maryland, USAAs of November 1st 2024 ET, all runs submitted to the leaderboards must have game audio present and clearly heard.
This doesn't disallow normal streaming activities like talking, background music, etc. Just make sure the game audio can still be heard over it. The higher the ranking of the submission, the stricter this rule will be.
This decision comes after recent runs submitted by talented runners, some in the top 10. Though we believe they are real, we want to stop a situation where a less honest player may take advantage of such a vulnerability in our rules.
Truth be told, we should have made this a rule years ago. However, we will not be clearing the leaderboards of runs submitted before this date, but all future ones must have this requirement. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me.
Thank you for those few playing Tetris on GB, and keep chasing those PBs and records!
Sorry for vanishing for the better part of the year. I've been going through A LOT in real life. This also includes coming out as trans, but it was mostly moving and other drama surrounding that. I am back now, though, and want to try to get back into runs too. I aim to get a new PB in each category : 3
With the recent uptick of activity for this game and the fact I've become the only active Moderator, I could use at least two more. If you are interested, please message me. I'd prefer someone experienced with this game or puzzle games in general.
Thank you

P.S. On a personal update, I've been grinding off-screen lately, looking at the 300K category =P
As some of you may know, it's faster than the US version. Lvl 18-19 especially. Could we do some type of 100 line category just for the PAL? Or should I try to suggest it being a whole separate game to keep records for? I know a few people on my stream asked about it, at least 1-2 others want to run it.
(I was derp and accidentally posted it to the GB Tetris forum earlier >.>; lol)
Three questions.
- Who's Going?
- Should we bother to try to submit a run or race for it?
- If so. 100 Lines(Any% or Lvl0 start) or 300k?
I had two ideas.
One was max score. Perhaps wait until one of us actually gets max score.
The other is 300k, but with a level 0 start.
What does everyone think?
Every other classic tetris game seems to have it, just about. Why not here?
I decided to make this to kinda unite the classic tetris community, and just to chat, hangout, and maybe help network to possible new runners etc!

Just so you know, you can turn in your level 0 starts to 100 lines as well. If that is also your PB in general.
When possible, could the mod look over the runs I just turned in? Thanks either way for your time. I tried to find a private contact, but there is no link to a twitter or facebook on Nick's account.
