I don't know about this videio. Is this some special version of Tetris? I thought you had to get a whole line of one color to make the line go away, but in ther video, lines are dissapearing when different colors are there.

Am I missing something here?

No color requirements, IIRC.
But wasn't it fun to think you won the lottery, just for a second there???

That guy sucked!  ;)    . . . cool video.  Why did it fade out before we see him lose?  I didn't know you could still play tetris that fast, I couldn't even watch as fast as he was playing.

In real Tetris (not one of the zillions of knockoffs) you just have to fill all of the voids to make a line dissapear. Color doesn't enter into it.

That question gets asked about twice a week lately. I know he tends to go MIA  now & then, but he needs to check in just we don't have to start searching the St. Louis newspapers for fatal scooter wrecks.

I live in St. Louis and I haven't seen anything.  I was on my Honeymoon though and couldn't stop thinking of him.  He'd thrive down there in Mexico.  Freakin entire FAMILYS with the PETS on scooters down there.  Stupid mexican scooters...making me think of paige on my honeymoon.   >:(

I think Paige got railed on a little too hard last month and he's since gone into hiding.

I like paige. Despite being completely opposite to myself if just about every conceivable way (damn he rides a scooter for starters), I think he has a good sense of humour and doubt this was actually the case.

Paige's profile says he was last active yesterday, so I dunno...


Lurking and not posting could be sign of a broken man.

I agree, Paige is made of stronger stuff than that. He's probably just burned out on this board for a while. I'm sure he'll be back before too long.

I have just been burned out on arcade stuff lately so I have been taking a break from these and other boards.

I'm fine, and I bought another Passport scooter, so now I have two of them. The one I just got is an older model that the one I had before, but it has a lot less mileage and is in much, much, much better shape.

Good to know you're still with us Paige. I've been moderately burned out on video games lately, which led me to take up one of my other hobbys for a while (model building), but that doesn't stop me from posting here. Of course, I'm a well known BYOAC junkie.

Paige, let's see some pics!

I'll snap a picture or two tommorrow if I wake up in time to do so.

Also, it looks like I finally found SOMEONE parting out a Passport from the handlebar on up, so now I can fix my other one as well. Unfortunately the new parts are BLUE, instead of red.
