TG is back!

Is it relevant to tetris anymore?  Probably not as a record keeping organization to be honest.  But maybe in other ways.  They do have a fairly higher viewership twitch channel now

My favorite part is the "leaderboard" as of 03-28-2012:

1) Harry 999,999 http://bit.ly/xSmptf
Jonas 999,999 http://bit.ly/AkWFkR
Thor 999,999
matt buco 999,999 http://bit.ly/wfg7uM

2) ben mullen (me) 996,500 http://bit.ly/wMAEc8

3) eli markstrom 985,054 http://bit.ly/zb37Ku

4) trey harrison 953,871 http://bit.ly/AC6eCq

5). alex kerr 918,199 http://bit.ly/xQ2HFB

6) dana wilcox 909k

7) jesse Presnall 884,634k

dan z 865,489 http://bit.ly/xbhkyw
this guy is perhaps the most enigmatic in terms of high score and method... he is a pure hypertapper (that is to say that unlike Thor who hypertaps when needed Dan does it always) based on some of his youtube videos i would say this score undervalues him, I would not be suprised in the slightest if i heard tomorrow that he maxed long ago.

9) Mike w 833k on level 25!

10) Joshua L. Tolles 792727 . This was done live in competition, and on his first attempt at mgc 2012. http://bit.ly/znMbwP judging by some of what ive seen on youtube lately this fellow will be in the 800's very soon

10) Robin Mihara 749,654
3rd in the 1990 NES world championships and the man who broke my heart in LA this year  he and alex were nearly tied in record before LA, in the 700s i could see in both of their gameplay that 800 was imminent... alex got and robin has been to busy with the movie to play... expect to hear from him soon!



A nice snapshot from two years ago! Things have certainly changed

Si Su asked me to walk everyone through the new TG submission process as it's a little different than it used to be.

Here's the short version:
1. Create an account on Twin Galaxies and complete the Verification process.
2. Record your game showing console boot-up. Camera is preferred over direct capture, but direct capture is ok.
3. Submit your score by uploading the video using the submission form. Include any other evidence that you have (photos etc.) if appropriate.

After your score is submitted, your evidence package will be "adjudicated" by other members of TG. After enough credible people have approved it, it goes into the database.

Submission points: Basically, in order to submit records to TG you have to spend submission points. The first submission is "free". After that, you have to review other people's submissions to earn submission points. It costs 3 submission points to submit a record and each record you review (including your own) earns you 1 submission point, so it's fairly easy to earn them.

That's pretty much it. If you have any issues, post them here or on the TG forum and I'll try to answer them.
