Today, the NES Tetris community achieved a new milestone. A player known as “Blue Scuti” reached level 157, a total of 1510 lines deep into the game, placed a piece, and his game crashed.

This post will describe why that is not only interesting, but a thing to be celebrated.

There will be topics in this post that assume you know everything from my previous post about Tetris. That post has no assumed prior knowledge, so start there and then come back if you want to know more.
