Here is a patch that:
 - Removes the full stop af=
ter 'no tests'
 - Changes the synopsis from "Multiplayer tetris" to "Mul=
tiplayer tetris game"=2E
 - Replaces the description with what you (swed=
ebugia) suggested=2E

Hi Swedebugia,

having looked it up online I prefer the WP synopsis:
"TetriNET=
 is a console multiplayer online Tetris game for up to six people=2E"
There is a gnome version also=2E We should state clearly that this is aconsole/text-mode client=2E

What does 'WP' mean?
<=
br>
As an aside I did not f=
ind a working server anywhere and the homepage of
the project is dead=2E=
 There is a possibility to host your own server with
jetrix though=2E

I played Tetrinet with someone over a server, but I can't=
 remember what the address was=2E

You can't access the homepage of t=
he project? I can access http://tetri=
net=2Eor=2Ecz fine=2E Or do you mean it hasn't been updated in ages?
There could be tradem=
ark issues with the name/game also see
https://en=2Ewikipedia=2Eorg/wiki/The_Tetri=
s_Company

Regarding the potential trademark issues,=
 both FSF-approved distros Parabola and PureOS have Tetrinet in their repos=
itories[1][2], so I think it would be acceptable to add it to Guix=2E And i=
f a copyright claim is made in the future it can always be removed=2E
[1] Tetrinet in Parabola - https://www=2Eparabola=2Enu/packages/?q=3Dtetrinet
=
[2] Tetrinet in PureOS - https://software=2Epureos=2Enet/search_pkg?term=3Dtetr=
inet

Thanks
