Catch Again

2006-10-19 21:57:38

I picked up and started playing catch again. It's kinda cool how sometimes you do better after not playing for a while.

Today I broke 14 million with a detonation area of 80, 6 more than before, on level 20 start.

Look out Sully! :)

Last week or so I learned back to back tspin triples. I only practiced with one setup, so I still need lots of work. You have to be pretty good to use them efficently IMO.

Er...

What the heck, I misdrop like crazy now on my Lite. Maybe because my hands are sweaty? I accidenly had 3 hard drops in a row - you know, when you hardrop and 2 other pieces fall almost at the same time.

I've also been facing some weird ratings lately. I've faced sub 5000 players with 0 wins and 7200 rated players with t-spins. Oh yeah, I have some pretty sick t-spins today, one with an "L" piece.

wifi

Started playing wifi last night. First person I faced was 6600ish, so 500 above me. I won about every other game, bringing me up to 6300. Then I faced another player who's rating was just below 6000 and got brought down to 5700. Playing when you are tired and about to go to bed is not a good idea!

Too much tetris

2006-09-04 19:11:28

Gosh, I've been playing tetris too much lately... or rather, been playing at times when I shouldn't be. One night I got about 45 minutes of sleep, from playing tetris, then not being about to fall asleep afterwards (from the bright screen). I just hope my mom dosn't take my DS away!

I'm getting better at vs mode with the computer. I win about 75% of the time on level 4 now.

Vs.

2006-09-02 14:23:27

So I'm basically sick of catch and started working on vs. mode before I go into wifi. I can be the computer on level 4 about half the time and barely win at level 5.

Dangit!

Gah, I got 13.2 mill (lvl 20 start), a new record... BUT before I got that record, it was going to be like 15 million if I didn't die at 8 million something. I had amazing detonations, some of which were just under 1 million each. I was just plowing through everything until I got too big and couldn't avoid the bad guys.

You have to have the perfect state of mind in order to play well it seems. A lot of times I will just pick up the DS and on my first run, get a new record, when other times I can be frustrated with a dozen restarts and go nowhere.

13 mil reached

Broke 13 million with 13167780. I didn't have any lousy detonations. I decided to play at level 19. You're able to grab most of the falling pieces and just have more flexability. Level 20 is just rush rush rush trying to survive. I can probably hit 14 million, but 15 may just seem to crazy. I wonder if there are any official catch records.

Starting Catch Blog

2006-08-21 22:27:40

I wanted to write about my Catch progress without annoying everyone with updates on forums, so I found this place to blog. Basically, Catch is all I play. It used to by about the w-fi, but not anymore. I’ve been playing Catch 2 hours a day lately for the past few days. I’ve been progressing pretty well. The other day I broke the 10 million mark with a detonation area of 67. Today, I broke the 11 million mark with a detonation area of 74. I play at level 19, so I received 999,999 points from that one detonation alone. I was pretty stoked. I don’t know if I’m actually good at Catch, or everyone else just sucks. I‘ve been practicing at level 20 a lot, trying to survive, which is my next goal. I have earned a somewhere in the 9 millions starting at level 20. Going for 13 million doesn't seem impossible.
