from the wiki:
All clear, Bravo, or Perfect Clear occurs when the player clears the whole playfield without leaving any blocks behind.

earn points by making as many PC's as you can in 5 minutes. getting close to a perfect clear earns you points as well (explained below). there are no points earned for tetrises, T-spins, combos, or anything else. know your twists so you'll make more PC's and near PC's.

i'll be making 2 leaderboards, one for total points in 5 minutes, and the other for total PC's in 5 minutes.

the easiest way i've found to play is to make a private room at Tetris Friends Arena, and practice until you're automatically disconnected, which happens after 5 minutes.

please submit a video. you'll need to tally up your own points, so watch your video closely so you don't miss anything.

restrictions
1. use a 7-piece bag randomizer (most guideline games including Tetris Friends, Tetris Online (Japan), Tetris Zone, Tetris DS, Tetris Party (most modes), Tetris Splash, Tetris Evolution, Tetris Worlds)
2. all pieces used must be tetrominoes
3. no cascade gravity (nearly every tetris game)
4. field dimensions 10x20
5. the field must be empty at the start of the game
6. no garbage blocks

scoring
5 = Perfect Clear
2 = One piece left over after "semi Perfect Clear"
1 = Two pieces left over after "semi Perfect Clear"

In other words, the 1- and 2-pointers are for the junk piece(s) that you dropped before making an otherwise Perfect Clear. Illustrated:

Spanish: Todo eliminado
Italian: Tutti eliminati
Dutch: Alles weg

This sounds like a lot of fun, jujube
Is there a deadline?

[Johnny147]

That's a great idea jujube. This'll be fun fun.

[Magnanimous]

... Awesome.

Can we have two leaderboards? One based solely on how many PCs you do, and the second based on points?

Also: how about a small bonus if you go from an empty field to a PC in ten pieces? (Or five, if you're really lucky. )

[jujube]

yeah Magna, i can definitely make 2 leaderboards. that's a good idea. i don't know about a bigger bonus for a quick PC from the start of the game though. because we're using the 7-piece bag, people can memorize "openings" like chess players, and increase the possibility of making an early PC, so i don't know that it would be deserving of an extra bonus on top of the usual 7 points.

i forgot to mention that on your first piece at the start of the game or after a PC, you won't qualify for the "4 blocks in the bottom row" bonus, which would be as easy as placing an I piece horizontally. i'll add this to my first post.

as soon as people are ready to post scores i'll make leaderboards. you may as well post your points and # of PC's, along with a video link if at all possible. i'm going to post a video to youtube, and i'll use their annotations editor to indicate wherever i scored points in the game.

clincher: there's no deadline at all. i'll keep this thread running indefinitely.

i tried a bunch of times, and never made more than 3 PC's in five minutes until the game where i made 6. it really came from out of nowhere hehe. good job in your game, looking forward to the video.

i see where i left 4 blocks behind @2:02, but they weren't all in the bottom row.
