We're planning a Tetris meet up on Saturday September 5th at San José State University. Details are still being sorted, so keep an eye on the Facebook page or this thread for updates. We'll probably have things set up in the student union by the bowling center/arcade, but I'll let everyone know if that changes.

Expect Tetris Grand Master 1 arcade board with sticks and a laptop for Texmaster and the like. :]

I'm most likely attending. I'll bring my old phat DS and maybe my keyboard. I'm thinking about bringing my laptop but it's a pain to lug around 12+ pounds.

Might be the only chance.

QuoteOkay I might as well throw this out there now. This summer I have been messing around with making tetris plush blocks. So far I am almost done with three:

The I block is approximately 11 inches tall, and both the I block and the L block still needs to be closed up. And yes, the L block is flipped in the picture.

I still have a lot of stuffing left, so if anyone is interested in getting one, send me a message. They will be $8 each and I will bring them to the meet.

Digital · August 15, 2009, 10:07:27 AM

Oh, that's really cool. Makes me want to buy a whole set. How long does it take to finish one?

I_AM_SAND · August 15, 2009, 10:09:34 AM

IIRC it wouldn't say that on the European version either.

damn it, why does it have to be a saturday T.T

hmm should i get a hair cut xD, its ugly right now D=

should we bring anything?

Monte · September 01, 2009, 09:58:01 PM

it's going be in the student union so we have to bring whatever we plan on using i guess. I'll be bringing my DS if anybody wants to play TDS or something. kitaru will be bringing his super gun, laptop and arcade sticks so that's like TGM on the super gun and emulators, BB, TF, TOJ and what not on the lap top. I was hoping we could have some multiplayer action that's better than TDS so hoping kitaru can bring his 360 so we can play splash. He's already bringing one tv so bringing another for the 360 would be a very big hassle. Since I'm driving I could probably bring my monitor or a tv for the 360 if he brings it. I would love to get in some good multiplayer. If someone has a laptop we could do like multiplayer BB or something. I think that'd be pretty fun. maybe like a little tourney or something. kitaru has blokus too, I'd love to play that if people wanted but again kitaru is already bring a lot so if anybody has something that would be of interest please don't hesitate to mention it!

Monte · September 04, 2009, 12:11:43 AM
