Well this is mine. I have video proof as I recorded the whole game, but its an hour and half long and features some terrible singing by me in it, so I won't burden you all with it.

Really? But it's over 2GB, and sporadic singing, mostly Dream Theater, so not really very nice to listen to XD.

I can make a video of the last few thousand if you want proof. A SILENT VIDEO :D

I did it by almost obsessing over the game. At my best, I'd play several hours a day. Also I have a Mac, so it runs legendarily slowly XD

My highest legit score is somewhere around 300. Choose whether or not to show it, there are skeptics.

Mine is kind of old, and add to it having Quicktime doing a screen recording, that's an unhappy Mac.

McDonther2, that is freaking amazing. You're a beast. Do you have specific tips or strategies?

One thing I noticed is that, unlike regular Tetris, in NT2 the higher you pile without QUITE getting lines, the more likely you are to get somewhat unpredictable random double, triple, or even "tetris" clears deep in the stack... So naturally the higher you go, in a sense the more likely you are to get big scores... but of course it's also more dangerous.

I hope you surpass me, it'll give me reason to play the game again :D

And in regards to tips, when the board reaches 3/4 full, sometimes slamming a few pieces down makes a difference. Also my strategy is to just play normal tetris for as long as possible, and to always attempt to regain control of a board. Never resign yourself to just playing with angles and chips everywhere, always strive for normalcy.

That's all really. And don't be afraid to only play a few games a day. I only play one or two. It's the same with Temple Run. I only play one game a day, and my high score is 192,000,000 :3

Edit: I should also mention that the block physics (the overall stability of the structure and the predictability of placements) will actually vary from computer to computer, so my strategy may not work for you. Also as an aside to Maurice, it would be cool to have more rocket types. It's too easy to get the final one :)
