03:28:12 Devastator: yeah, just missed you.
03:28:38 Devastator: read Extinction yet? ;-p
03:29:51 Devastator: Not doing much tonight.
03:29:58 Devastator: 'playing' an idle game.
03:31:21 Devastator: read through Erfworld.
03:32:38 Devastator: Yeah. It really got a bit too metaphysical for my taste near the end.
03:32:45 Devastator: still, too bad though.
03:32:51 Devastator: (it stopped due to tragedies.)

04:39:31 syv: RUN COWARD, RUN, RUN, RUN!
04:45:45 Devastator: I'm not sure what my record is for Sinistar.
04:52:24 Devastator: I think there's a reasonably faithful SNES port if you want to try it.
05:10:00 syv: From what I read about Erfworld, it was in part tragedies that ended it, but in part also the author... not managing the project well. And making mistakes.
05:16:20 Devastator: apparently nobody can do marathon runs of Sinistar.
05:16:26 Devastator: the game's difficulty doesn't fail.
05:18:06 Devastator: Wonder if that's still true.
05:24:07 Devastator: 'world record, 12 minutes.'
05:25:48 Devastator: NES Tetris has fallen, actually.
05:25:56 Devastator: someone worked out a play method that allows indefinate play.
05:29:47 Devastator: The video I'm watching is almost certainly not the actual world record, but is solid.
05:41:58 syv: Oh. I thought Tetris got impossibly fast at the end.
05:42:51 Devastator: That was true for a long, long time.
05:43:15 Devastator: about four years ago someone invented hypertapping which raised the bar noticable.
05:43:51 Devastator: Last year another technique was invented (involving holding the controller vertically), that allows marathoning the game past what was called the killscreen.
05:44:46 Devastator: That Sinistar game, though, I'm not as lethal as the player there, who scores way better than I ever did, but I've gotten to the second warrior stage, which is the stage after that guy's run ends.
05:45:24 Devastator: No way that's the actual world record, though.
05:45:33 Devastator: It wouldn't surprise me if someone's made the second void stage.
05:45:42 Devastator: (3 stages further.)
