First Ever PAL Tetris Maxout!!

"To clear up confusion: This was played on console with controller, at no point did I use flyhec/rolling on controller to try to have an advantage over anyone else playing with keyboard..."
I don't know how long people have been trying for a maxout in PAL Tetris, but it's finally happened! Really amazing game all around, and that was my first day with a real cartridge!
I have so many people to thank for this.
Jani for mastering the game early on and drawing many new players to it,
Jake for inspiring many others to try the game out (even though the game eventually turned out to be fake),
Adam for pushing the limits of PAL DAS,
Sam Finch for paying for my cartridge,
and many others, who provided inspiration and support.

New World Records:
PAL Score (824,020 → 1,096,300)
PAL Lines (341 → 400)
PAL Level (40 → 46)
PAL Post-Transition (493,300 → 565,380)

I love how everyone in chat just slowly realizes that this is the run and starts to freak out

[fchampiontetris]

No way. Well, we know this has to happen sooner or later, but with that huge margin of WR, I thought we will have to wait at least a whole year to see something like this, and by the man who a few moments ago didn’t even had the cartridge. Simply amazing

Congratulations! Thank you for naming the game after me, it means a lot

[PoetxRatedRKO]

Congrats Eric! I was sure this would happen! Also great to see that you already had the game genie code in. The start of the description and the smashed records that appear during the video are also amazing ideas (btw, the overall lines WR was 371 from 19 start).

"Cheatertaps" (faster than DAS+quicktap):
- 5 high left longbar at 6:01
- 6 high left J at 6:59
- 5 high left J at 9:23
- 5 high left S at 9:29
... and some more 3-high, 4-high 5-taps and 7-high + 8-high 4 taps. I am not listing them to say anything bad about your stacking, but just to show how much of an advantage a hypertapper can have over a DAS player and that I always believed that a tapper would have much bigger chances to achieve such a thing. Also it shows your ability to recover from painful misdrops that would instantly kill almost any other player. I am pretty sure this record will stand for a very long time unless you will try to beat it.

I like how you got the the max then kept playing going “now what?”

[bneaththestarlight]

Remember when lots of people were saying that it is impossible to max out on PAL using console?This is why do not ever say that something is impossible to be done. This is a living proof that even the things that seem impossible is actually possible.

[Master-dysh]

seeing this on stream was the most insane thing ever. GG on the wr(s)! Absolutely insane

[edwintan]

A real landmark performance - truly astonishing. Congrats!

“At no point did I use flyhec/rolling on controller”
Well you already tap fast enough lol but still good game! You can truly get 1.2 if you grind harder for pre-trans score XD

[wschmrdr]

And ragtime to boot! Haven't heard that in a long time...

Well done!

[violinche]

This is mind blowing! Congratulations Eric!

[cuprianlycoris]

This is why we should've never let touhou players play tetris. ggs

[blast]

Congrats! That's quite a historical achievement!

[gabrielbondon]

Dang finally a pal max ! Congratulations !

[michutetris]

Eric, respect and congratulations from Poland

[orsonzedd]

Excellent work, even with the number of burns you did it turned out really well

[shiro_bakayarou]

who would've thought that reimu the broke ass shrine maiden plays tetris at a professional level

[stmtpls]

Good job buddy! Watched it at least 10 times, very impressive, hope more people could appreciate it

[kingyodah]

And I was wondering why Adam put "former" tag to his WR video xD.

New challenge for you
- overcome Jake's disputed PAL score of 1.25 M
- overcome Adam's PAL 19-start WR 377 lines and 677k points (or how much it was, dont remember it)
