You can choose what you need to get the fastest time. Most KO Badges and the easiest CPUs are allowd
I wont understand why ppl on this site care about these categories... this is only an html-board with links, not a holy law or something like that... nvm, we have to "obey" ...
tbh i dont have a good idea for team battles. Is being the last player in the game (= win the game on #1) an option? I dont play team games, so I dont know...
I deleted the 500-marathon-category btw. I think it was unneeded
Hey there,
you have to do the KOs in normal tetris99 or invictus mode. Not against CPU for example. Maybe we will add this to the rules. Thank you for telling ;)
soupG
In my opinion 750 is too high, cuz its almost 999 ... If I already did 750 lines, I want to complete 999 tbh. Maybe 500 would be better but I dont know if we really need a new marathon category.
And I guess we also can use the IGT for the new categories? I mean why not? There is a timer and we can see when lines turn 40 or 500 or what ever and can take the shown time...
I deleted the rule now, cuz its very uncommon and in my opinion CPUs are strong enough. In same games I won CPUs are in top 10 ... and now its more like in other tetris games. Have fun.
In my opinion we can delete this rule. It was needed for the beginning but not anymore. Or change it to 25 CPUs. CPUs are ok and a lot of games are starting with 80-90 players. On the other hand a lot of games are full (99 players) after few seconds so I think we dont need it anymore
Sometimes there are 70-80 human players only. If this is the normal case (and I guess the new CPU level is very hard to beat tbh) we should delete this extra rule. We should observe this
We added the invictus mode.
THIS RULE IS NOT ACTIV ANYMORE (EDITED BY SOUPG) Important: In this mode, espacially in the beginning of it, it can happen that only 50 human players are playing (e.g. in the night). Because of this we added the rule:
If there are more than 10 CPUs at the start of the game your run is invalid! In order to this in your video you have to show how the countdown for the game is running, so we can see how many players are in and how many CPUs are added at the end of the countdown.
Hope you all are fine with that.
I guess we have to wait few days at all, cuz at the moment there are only 20-50 players in a game with the new mode.
For now I added the 40 lines challange to 150 and 999 marathon mode. What do the others think about the suggestions? Anything else?
These are my suggestions and only suggestions for the moment. You can modify it if you like or ignore some (or all) of them :D Maybe I will add some more. Let me here what you think about it please. Thank you.
-- Topic: Marathon Category name: 40 Lines Rules of the category: Same as 150 Lines Description(optional): Start 150 Lines Game and do 40 Lines as fast as possible (As I wrote already. There is no IGT for 40 lines so we have to stop at the 40th line)
-- Topic: Marathon Category name: 500 Lines Rules of the category: Same as 999 Lines Description(optional): Start 999 Lines Game and do 500 Lines as fast as possible (This is only to find a middle thing between 150 and 999, cuz 999 lines will take a lot of time. There is no IGT so we have to stop at the 500th line like for 40)

Topic: Challange Category name: 10 Tetris Rules of the category: Start a normal game against other people (no DLC)*.
Time starts when the screen shows "GO" on a new game.
Do 10 Tetris as fast as possible.
You have to show the statistic page at the end of the game. Time stops if 10 Tetris (or more) are shown on statistic page. Place doesn't matter at all.
Runs must require video proof.
Emulators are banned. Description(optional):
-- Topic: Challange Category name: 10 double T-Spins Rules of the category: Start a normal game against other people (no DLC)*.
Time starts when the screen shows "GO" on a new game.
Do 10 double T-Spins as fast as possible.
You have to show the statistic page at the end of the game. Time stops if 10 double T-Spins (or more) are shown on statistic page. Place doesn't matter at all.

-- Topic: Challange Category name: 10 triple T-Spins Rules of the category: Start a normal game against other people (no DLC)*.

*we can do these three categories (10 Tetris, double T-Spins and triple T-Spins) also in 150 Lines DLC mode to neutralzie luck. No opponents and no garbage means no luck factor. So we can do it on normal games AND DLC if you want to. (I dont mean against CPU opponents, I really mean in the 150-lines-single-player- mode, to have no opponents)
-- Topic: Challange Category name: No garbage Rules of the category: Time starts when the screen shows "GO" on a new game.
Play as long as you can without getting garbage from other players.
Time stops if you can't defeat your first garabge line or if you win the game without any garbage. (Bigger time better than small time on this category!)
Runs must require video proof.
Emulators are banned.
(I think its kinda cool, but I dont know, cuz mods have to look very closly to the run if there is any garbage..)
As I said I would like to help you guys as a mod if you want to :)
Yeah you could make this like 1-Kill, 5-Kills, 10-Kills... up to idk 30 Kills maybe, but I dont know if this is to much, cuz kills are also very luckbased :D
One of the most "run" category in tetris in general is the 40lines-challange. The DLC has 150 and 999 lines timer and we could add 40 lines - ofc we would have to stop the timer by ourself but I think thats not a problem. So 40 lines would be an idea to 150 and 999 lines challenge. Rules like 150 and 999 ofc. (You have to start a 150-Lines-DLC-Challange-Game and then do 40 lines instead of 150)
Something like "do 10 tetris as fast as possible" would be cool too, but we have to count the tetrises and thats ugly I guess - also for the ppl who have to verify the runs.
I will think about this and maybe I will get some ideas of more usefull categories.
It is better so we all can focus on winning the game :D
I also suggested to add tetris99 to tetris series at all and have some experience on speedrun.com. Iam mod on some games so if you need additional mods for tetris99 I would help you :)
If not it is fine for me as long as we switch the stop time in general ;)
Edit: And I guess its better to switch now and not after 100 runs are submitted
Yeah thats fine for me and I guess for everyone else too.
This way we can just play a game - go for the win - get the times at the 'X players remaining'-screen and use the run for multiple categories and we dont have to die to get a faster time!
Thank you!
Thank you for adding Tetris99 :)
But why we have to die to get a time for Top50% and Top10% ? It would be better only to "enter" these sections. We could time it exactly on the "50 players remaing" screen.
This way you have to decide in a very good run "do I go for the win or do I die immediatly on 10" ? Would be better if you go for the win and die on #2 you can use this run for Top10. I dont like I have to decide and lose the game by my own.
Maybe I got the rules wrong but I guess there is something like "enter the top 50 AND lose the game". So why? :)
Edit: To make it clear: In my opinion time should stop if the "X players remaining" screen is shown for Top50 and Top10, and not when iam losing
Can you add tetris99 (Nintendo Switch) to the tetris series? With the new DLC we have a ingame timer for 150 and 999 lines, we also can speedrun the known 40lines-challange on tetris99.
Would be cool
