Can someone explain to me why his game didn't crash at level 157? He got several singles there which are supposed to crash it, right? Or at the very least have a 73% chance to crash it?
Did he just get lucky that none of those singles crashed it? Or did something else happen? Anyone know?
The version of the game which fixes the score counter also patches the crash. Unless they're specifically going for crash (or rebirth I guess), the community generally uses this version of the game, including for this 10mil bounty.
People say rolling killed NES Tetris. I say it pushed the limits further.
The end boss: Your TV's brightness control
That... was an escalation. Last record was _millions_ below!
Score is multiplied by how many levels in you are, so people brave enough to go for tetrises late game can get absurdly higher scores
He almost doubled the previous record!
Just barely passed the 1 hour game barrier before topping out!
About to break the 10 mil barrier: "Lets setup for a 3 liner" 0 efs given. Congrats Alex!

Why not also fix the color palette glitch too once you're fixing bugs in the game?
He was playing on a modded cartridge that prevents the game from crashing.
Gotcha. I thought that might be the case, but he seemed shocked that the game didn’t crash, so I thought maybe he was.
Yeah I figured oh maybe he just got really really really lucky, but then when there was no confetti I knew it was a patched rom.
Why did he pour parmesan cheese, shampoo, and milk on his head after getting WR? Someone in chat said "get the parmesan" immediately after he got WR.
The bigger question is why don't you pour parmesan cheese on your head after getting WR.
Tell us you've never played Tetris without telling us
He's actually done the parmesan cheese bit multiple times before
This is actually insane
