Thanks for the contribution. But this would change gameplay considerably -- in Tetris, you can get the same shape four times in a row, while with your change, that's no longer possible. I.e., it makes the game less random, so I'm not sure that would be a welcome change. (And you can predict which ones you'll be getting at the end of each seven piece cycle by counting a bit.) It might make sense to add it as an option, though. Any Tetris players here with an opinion? --=20 (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
