Any updates on the Tetris tournament? Doesn’t seem like too many people are interested for some reason.

I guess I didn’t read it as thoroughly as I should have :D. I must say the firewall doesn’t seem to let anything get by.

I just downloaded the ZIP… my AV’s did not see any issues.

did you read my Internet Security Guide?

I like COMODO… only the firewall though, its anti-virus still needs some maturing to catch up to other great free AV’s (Avira, AVG, Avast)

Well the one I tried was Mirror 1, I guess I’ll check the others as well

I tried installing Bloxtrix from the Tetrinet and got this virus warning.

Where can I download? I’ve been playing tetris online at tetrisfriends.com

I really doubt i’m playing against other players though…

But my concern is the controls. I’ve been getting used to playing it online, and on tetrisfriends.com the controls are as follows:

Up – Rotates piece
Down, left, right – down left right
C – Saves a piece/swaps with saved
Space bar – hard drop

Would the controls be similar? I mess up quite a few times because i’m trying to get used to these controls, so I don’t want to have another set of controls to get used to.

Also, the vs system sends lines of blocks at your opponent whenever you clear 2-4 lines I believe, so is it the same system?

I’ll probably be using the TetriNET / BlockTrix setup.

I already have servers up and testing them now for stability and security.

If you want to brush up, download and play it… free and small downloads.
… no need for the fastest internet, I was playing TetriNET with a 33.6K modem for the longest time.

I second the first part of Beersentes comment…I’m bored. I don’t know how my internet access is going to look like in the near future, so I might or might not be able to join.
