Funny how so many WR cheaters try to fall back on 'it was a joke' when almost every real attempt at humor is predicated on the idea that SOMEONE will find it funny. Not having obvious clues to follow means no one will get the joke, and nothing stings a joke-teller more than a joke being ignored. In short, if these were actually jokes, who was the intended audience? If it was a private joke, why involve other people at all?

@spohsii9792 2 года назад

pmya here to a general audience who do not know any of the people involved, there is no joke to the people who were playing on the channel at the time, seeing another player you're fully aware is light years away from getting what at the time was within a tetris of the world record, is funny in a way it was a private joke, roughly 5-6 people were around at the time, its not like it happened with the foresight of this being shown to an audience who have no context two years later

@ChargeQM 2 года назад

@@spohsii9792 still seems really weird from an outsiders perspective, and Occam's Razor would indicate an attempt to misrepresent skill, instead of a mildly contorted joke that you'd need to be deep into a community to get, since no real explanation was made to onlookers until people started getting upset about it. I guess it could be funny to some, but you probably know, people have fought and bled over this sort of thing. If it's a joke, maybe don't let it get to the point where others are trying to crown a new champion or making public statements about how well someone did.

@Xeneonic 2 года назад

No doubt. If you have a clear understanding of the fundamentals of how to build your stack and manage it under pressure, you get to compete on the level of Neubauer (rip). He proved time and again that mastery of the game can bring you all the way to level 29. To get past that however, DAS cannot compete anymore. This was for the longest time not an issue as hypertapping players took a long time to overtake DAS players. And rolling has only gotten competitive this year (Invented late last year I think?), something a person like Neubauer could use to get a one up on hypertappers. Sadly, he already passed away before rolling started showing its true potential and therefore never got to grab the Tetris crown again. I'm absolutely sure your mother would have loved to see Tetris evolve the way it has to this day, and is still continuing to evolve.

11:18 "So there is no way he was using this back in the 90s." I feel that isn't something you can really be certain of. Back in those days, before the Internet took off and before a lot of people were accustomed to wide scale sharing of information like we do now, it's quite possible that a lot of things, like techniques, game genie codes, etc, were found by individuals who simply never passed it around. There was probably a lot of discoveries that the discover just didn't think much of at the time or forgot about, with no one to really share it with, and general Interest shifting to newer consoles coming out, moving to computer gaming, or other life matters like college, family, etc that made it feel like the world had moved on - I remember by the mid-late 90s you could find 8 and 16 bit games like Tetris in flea markets and exchange stores for a couple dollars, if that. I guess my point is that the 90s, especially the first half of it, was a very different time, when people didn't or couldn't just share everything with the world.

It's possible rolling was discovered back in the 90s. Not a lot of people used the internet and a lot of information was lost and had to be rediscovered. Rolling is notable because, for how tetris works, it's a very natural thing to want to try to do. You see people who were new to high level Tetris try to find a way to roll their fingers across the d-pad because you can, in theory, tap way faster than even Hypertapping with way less effort and carpal tunnel. Really, it just takes one person thinking far enough outside the box. That said, I think it's unlikely Tyler actually did it.

@JungleCrook 2 года назад

man its a crime how much info discovered about games was forgotten or never even publicized in any way, I guarantee most of us that have gamed our whole lives have discovered glitches, techniques, and all sorts of stuff that isn't mainstream..like for pokemon gen 1 I specificially remember thinking my game was broken when all of the text stopped showing up and I didn't get to switch pokemon when the opponent brought a new one out, sure now its a speedrun staple that changed everything but at the time it sucked sooo bad..talkin about in like 99-00

@kaldo_kaldo 2 года назад

My family did something similar to rolling when we played. We didn't play Tetris but other games that required you to tap A/B really quickly. There have been several speedrunning strategies that were discovered that I or people around me already knew and did in our casual play, like looking down in Goldeneye to move faster.

@Xnoob545 Год назад

Hypertapping could DEFINITELY be discovered by anyone

@JimMilton-ej6zi 2 месяца назад

Exactly, like it's the kind of thing where someone could've reasonably discovered it independently from someone else, and even if it was this advanced strategy that took years to be found, it's still not unheard of that people were able to do them decades before any community found it. In wave race 64 there was a guy in 1999 who basically held the WR for 15 years, and he had no idea, it took until 2014 for anyone to even be able to beat his record, and when the tape of his record showed up, it was revealed that he even knew some extremely advanced strategies that took people decades to discover, meanwhile he was doing them when the game was still considered a current gen game. So using "other people didn't discover it so he couldn't have" just isn't a good reason for it at all.

@marcfelix1006 2 года назад

Great video! There is one thing that you got wrong though, which is your take on hypertapping. You said it was not viewed as a viable strategy before 2018, even though Koryan uses it way longer and always was one of the best players around. In fact, I think that Thor Aackerlund, who was the best Tetris player in the 90s, already used a form of hypertapping, even though he did not use the exact same grip as most players today.

@aGameScout 2 года назад

He is kind of correct, before 2018, Koryan and Thor were viewed as freaks of nature and guides on playstyle strategy in the community didn't recommend learning hypertapping because it was thought that the average player would not be able to do it and/or have stamina issues doing it long term. It wasn't until after Joseph came along that a ton of teens joined the community starting out with hypertapping and making the playstyle mainstream

@IrvineTheHunter 2 года назад

@@aGameScout That's fine on it's own, BUUUUT, he was saying it as "evidence" that some random player couldn't have been using it. Same thing with the game genie, pre-2000 the internet wasn't around to spread tips and tricks freely, so even if someone/group found a trick the chance it just wasn't shared, or shared and LOST* is pretty high. Just as an example of a big speedrunning trick that almost became lost media was the golden eye looking down trick, or the countless glitches that are used in Mario Cart speed running, chances are many were already found but they weren't dissected and ratified so they could be used for speed-running. *Like the Baja Blast theft hijinks, which was shared around but then lost.

@KitaruTC 2 года назад

@@aGameScout I think it's still worth noting there necessarily must have been other hypertapping players out there, even if not as optimized to the point we've seen in the past handful of years. We definitely know of at least one prominent tapper -- Spectre255 / DanZ achieved the first recorded GB Tetris max-out in 2006 and had other videos of NES/SNES accomplishments such as NES 19-4 in 2008 and SNES 347 lines in 2009. In fact, I would go as far as to say that non-NES player perception of viable playstyles was heavily influenced by the visibility of Spectre255's videos on RU-vid; until Trey uploaded one of Jonas's DAS 19 max-out videos, top Tetris players unfamiliar with NES were prone to write it off as a game that _necessitated_ tapping. Spectre255 was also quite surprised that DAS was able to achieve the level of performance shown in Jonas's video. It's quite likely that players all learning the game in isolation came to different conclusions about what playstyle was ideal, even if the breakdown we ended up with post-CTWC implies a DAS majority.

@@aGameScout DanZ showed his hypertapping grip 10+ years ago and cleared 19-4, so honestly I think it was more of people not wanting to try it rather than people not being able to do it.

Joseph’s April 1st 1.4 M score, like his retirement announcement, was also a hoax, which he admitted to on April 2nd over Twitter. He had some cheat method of summoning long bars on command. He said he used it very little on level 18, but on level 19 needed it quite a bit more. Funny thing about the retirement announcement is that he really did take a bit of a break from Tetris. Very few streams after that point, though he did get back in more seriously in time for the annual CTWC tournament.

I'll say this, I'm a fighting game player first and foremost. I have been hyper tapping all my life. At my prime I had a speed of 14-15 pps. I could get back to that within a month of practice. It's a technique I figured out playing fighting games, but I used it in other games when it was useful. I'm 36. I was definitely doing it in the 90s. I'm not great at tetris, but I was "speed tapping" as I use to call it to challenge my self and beat fast falling speeds as well. All that is to say, we had a lot of ways to button mash back then that were not taught in a magazine or seen on tv or in a video. Pen cap mashing where you slide a pen cap between the A&B button. Coin mashing where you used a coin, usually a penny or nickel, to mash. We were game nerds, and we figured out how to do the "impossible". I don't have any reason to believe that he didn't figure out these advanced techniques on his own, even though they didn't become mainstream until recently. There are always people who are ahead of their time.

@lanceknightmare Месяц назад

14-15 is actually the speed of a moderately-high Delay Auto Shift player or a moderate Hypertapper. The best Advanced Delay Auto Shift player in the world was playing at around 18. I am not sure what my speed is. I have gotten a few left well Tetris on level 29 in Tetris and Dr. Mario for the Super Nintendo. That is the top of my speed, while my average would be much lower.

9:59 Actually, I think I'd contest this point, DAS requires more game knowledge in order to keep it loaded in between drops, I think hypertapping has always been present and when reaching high speeds, even feels intuitively like the only option for a player unless they understand and practice the mechanics of DAS specifically.

@zerone9623 2 года назад

There also a physical tetris blocks as well. We were able to play the game legitimately so well, that you could claim that we pre-strategiezed the tactic out before hand. Dr. Mario and Yoshi's cookie also play by using the exact same mechanics as tetris as well. It is perfectly possible to do every level of Yoshi's cookie with the blocks that are already there on the board without getting anymore pieces. The pieces generated are not randomly decided either. You have to act pretty fast to clear the levels before more pieces come out, especially at the higher levels. With enough practice you should be able to do it. We were able to do very effectively back when we playing the game a long time ago in the first year or so, and then lost it. We able to clear the stages but with more pieces being added to the board.

Maybeeeee it’s just me, but I still don’t get what the “joke” was when splicing and submitting a fake score

@IrvineTheHunter 2 года назад

Imagine you were watching a streamer who pulls like 12mn, PB runs, and then they are running a sub 10, your super hyped, they finish with an 8:57, and then they were like, surprise, you guys got hyped for nothing, lol.... Like just straight trolling. Personally I think dude was just mad he couldn't get the score properly, spliced a video and put it out their to test the waters, or as a "cry for help" because they DESPERATELY wanted that WR, but couldn't quite get it, so they were on the edge of just flat out faking it.

@thomasdegroat6039 2 года назад

Seems sus that a guy would ruin his entire reputation for a “joke” and then never back it up with an actual run even though he says he can.

@WithScienceAsMySheperd 11 месяцев назад

@12:00 so... the hyper tapping was the Eddie Van Halen of TETRIS techniques, and rolling is the modern tech death metal soloing madness level above human.... (ex: Keven Chartre, Nick Padovani) NOW I get it !!!

@DavidWonn 2 года назад

No mention of an old magazine "trick" where rapidly rotating a tetrad would allegedly influence its distribution frequency? Also I find it interesting that top players allow the gap to be on the sides rather than the middle, especially at the higher speeds. Good video as always.

@HuntMeDown237 2 года назад

I've personally always kept the sides open too on higher speeds. Allows for the large blocks to go in the middle and let slimmer pieces fit in and clear a couple lines before setting up for a Tetris lmao

@NinetyLegos 2 года назад

This is probably due to the fact that they have been doing it on the right the whole game. I think it might be hard to switch that mid game especially since it's so fast

@GregCannon7 2 года назад

Spam rotating a piece won't affect its distribution in-game, since the piece distribution is only determined by the frame that you start the game on, and the height that the pieces lock at. People have deconstructed every line of the game's code, so if there were any other way to manipulate RNG we'd know about it.

@DavidWonn 2 года назад

The advantage of leaving the gap in the center of the screen is so that you have minimal movement of the bar pieces as the speed gets crazy. Furthermore you inevitably reach dry spells where you rely on the other pieces. If the gap is done correctly in the center, you can get a quick triple with either an L or Gamma piece. A gap on the right would only allow doing so with an L piece, for instance.

@HarryToeface 2 года назад

crazy how when i was a kid not many people even knew about hyper tapping... i was a weird kid that used it in private but i was never in that scene so ill never know if that could have gotten me anywhere

@creepercraftytT99 8 месяцев назад

you should specify that this is classic tetris, otherwise, non-tetris players will think that every single tetris game works the same since 1989(gameboy and nes tetris release) after that, nice video!

@sarysa 2 года назад

Hypertapping has a long, long history. You mentioned Thor, and others have mentioned Koryan, but I wouldn't be shocked if there were a lot of Japanese tappers who were inspired by Toshiyuki Takahashi, a gaming celebrity in mid-80's Japan that could tap at 16Hz. Probably inspired Koryan and some of the other Japanese TGM players, the oldest of which got their start in NES Tetris. ....but when all is said and done, there is plenty of other evidence against Tyler's claims. Unfortunately as well, it's unlikely that a 46 year old will ever be setting any Tetris records. That's way past gaming prime. (edit: perhaps I should have viewed the full video before posting that last part...)

@BDtetra 2 года назад

I was gonna say the exact same thing. There was a game in the early FC days called Star Soldier which requires 16 Buttons per second input to defeat the boss for a bonus 80k points. Takahashi was the face of that trick (although hardly the only person that has ever done it, and definitely not the original finder of the trick). I personally remember being able to do the trick as well back in the day. Its not an uncommon tactic at all, and a lot of FC games required use of fast tapping to shoot multiple bullets since holding usually only fired one bullet back then (like Xevious)

@akufromthefuturejmm6237 2 года назад

Kidding. I'm impressed they have such a way to figure this all out.

@cyootlabs 2 года назад

Cool method with the RNG, but as a thought - since the seed is using the set of bits accessed by the LFSR, would it be fair to say that it's possible to get a run with an impossible seed via the interference of cosmic rays? There was an election a few decades ago where one of the candidates got 1000 more votes than was even possible in one of the areas, and it was determined to be caused by a flipped bit on one of the voting machines due to cosmic rays. If this happened to one of the bits in the LFSR mid-game, wouldn't it then create an impossible seed?

@Simcity11100 2 года назад

the problem with assuming that someone couldn't have possibly done something is that this assumes that everyone, no matter what or where they are from, reports their findings to the public on the internet regardless of what year they say they did said thing. I feel like many things that could be ground breaking in any game went unreported because lack of internet or lack of interest in the competitive community and only does said thing for fun to show off to their siblings or friends in school or whatever.

@aaronmicalowe 2 года назад

At highschool there was a Tetris competition but I wasn't told because nobody thought to tell me. But I had got chummy with the headmaster and made a deal to come in after school and do extra homework. I can't remember why he let me. Anyway, he gave me a master key. Instead of doing the homework I went to a back cupboard in one of the staff rooms that had a computer powerful enough to play Tetris. This was back in 1989. So, after several weeks and hours of play every weekday, I got an incredibly high score, but didn't know about the competition. All the scores were stored on the network. The next day I heard about the competition, which was open, so I waited with anticipation for who would win. The score they declared as the winner was much less than mine. I mean, not even half. So, I asked the staff what happened to my score. They said it was too high to be believable so they deleted it. They said I had hacked the game. Thing is, I was just a kid, had no idea how to hack anything and anyway, it was on a staff computer that would not have had the access rights to modify anything on the network. _(I even tried to do this after and found it was impossible. The score file was in binary and I didn't know how to edit that at the time, and even if I had edited it, I didn't know how to change the access rights to save the edits. But I couldn't take my evidence to the staff because then they would find out I had been using one of their computers)._ What I learned from that is popularity > truth. It doesn't matter how good you are in this world - only how popular you are. I think Donald Trump proved this beyond any doubt. Still I prefer to be truthful than to be popular. I don't need to sell my soul for anyone, especially not for a computer game.

@taemien9219 2 года назад

Its obvious the 1.3 in '95 is a ridiculous claim. But Hypertapping was definitely a thing as early as the game's release in 1989. The reason we don't see alot of documentation on it is many kids were far too young to be in high level competitions and many simply didn't even know there was organized play. We have to remember that the late 80s and early 90s is pretty much pre-Internet (well there 'was' an Internet, but it had like literally a dozen websites total).

@theprinnyranger Год назад

i was hypertapping (but not on tetris cus I was young and found it boring lol) in 1994. Popular or not, it's the natural course when you discover input can be done faster. so this argument makes no sense to me. I was hypertapping (in vain) on Atari and Commodore (out of frustration). In my head, something I did naturally before I hit 10yo doesn't need to be "popular" to be believable. Heck, Santa doesn't exist, and yet he's more popular than Jesus.
