Saturday Timewaster: And We Really Mean It

Some wit cooked up a HD-version of Tetris – I can’t even begin to count the grid here – which makes dying or clearing lines an agonisingly long process.

Everyone who’s played this and blogged about it so far instead have created abstract art or raced each other to a fastest death time, some taking hours. I tried halfheartedly to work on clearing a line, but once you screw up the first piece and realise just how goddamn long it’ll take to lay the foundation just to clear the line above it – forget it. I start dropping pieces like I’m a kindergartener drizzling out coloured sandcastles.

Certainly there is at least one masochist out in Kotakopolis who’s willing to try to clear a line, or race their way to death. Good luck. Post your times in the comments below. Winner gets a big ol’ cookie.
