Yeah, this will be a very entertaining contest to watch throughout the week. I'll probably be part of the audience for this week though, too much Tetris talents in here already

JD: Cool avatar, very representative of the first round of 2012 Stanley Cup Series.

Last night I was playing for a bit and I had a great run going on, about 450,000, then one freaking mistake, followed by another, followed by another, to the point where I just got frustrated and gave up. I'll have to work on getting up to the 700k range to beat you >.<

This is true, and weirdly I just mailed Robin my last NES controller.

Robin and Thor should just forget about getting the high scores. Yep. And if Robin won't back down, I'm over nighting a NES to Thor, with my copy of tetris, autographed, just so he can beat Robin

Wow, there are some good Tetris players in this thread.  I've been crazy busy this week and just was able to play today,  I was confident I could give Robin a run for his money but this is all I could do:

I had been getting to the mid-20s pretty consistently, but for some reason I suck when I get to pro speed when starting on level 9.  I'll try again a little later on tonight.

Yea I don't think I will be getting close lol, but will keep trying for a new high score for myself after the contest is over. Would like to hit 650k at least some time. Good job on the scores guys, nice to see some other Tetris nuts out there!

I'm just posting this for participation.  Socre likely would've been higher if I had the NES that has responsive buttons, but my dad wants to watch his stupid TruTV shows about pawn shops.

Score:  32,593



Not sure if this would count, but here goes:
