Tetris / Tetris Sport - summary of 3 first years
June 12, 2012, 05:10:11 PM
Some of this is team sport vs individual sport.

For a team sport, there is a city or college, etc. for people to rally around. It's almost like a mob or a movement... and people like feeling the sense of belonging. It's like an extended clan to see others wearing the same sports apparel, or tens of thousands of crazy fans all cheering. Humans have a desire to be a part of something big, and team sports give them a common cause to rally behind.

Individual sports are a much tougher sell. The way to appeal an individial sport to the public is through story lines. Everybody has a story, and the more "human" those stars become, the easier for the fans to relate and get behind that individual. My favorite sports are individual sports, but without knowing the competitors are the story behind them (like, watching a less popular series, etc) I am not as drawn in.

Has anybody here seen The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0923752/  You don't have to play competitive Donkey Kong, or even the patience to watch a full game, but the STORY is what makes this great. Yeah, some frown on drama, but it draws a crowd.

Tetris / i want to be a fast tetris player
May 03, 2012, 06:33:44 AM
Why not strive to be a "good" player rather than a "fast" one? Perfection first, then push yourself to speed.

Welcome! Feel free to add me. PSN = Hornswoggler. I can hit some decent speeds (110's on a good day) but not very good. Let me know when you are playing and maybe we'll get in a few games?

Arena / any ps3 competitions?
November 19, 2011, 09:10:48 AM
I still play it. It's fun, and active. I would prefer Cultris v.19, but activity there has dwindled and its pretty easy to just fire up the console and hop in.

Add me! I'll duel someday..
