Details:
This qualifier went quite splendidly during level eighteen, however when the game transitioned to level nineteen at one hundred and thirty lines, it was quite troublesome to keep up with the speed. As such, minor bad luck spells or minor technical errors caused the wonderful potential of the score at the end of level 18 to be unceremoniously wasted. It is important that the reader also knows and considers the impacts of the playstyle I used for this qualifier, as it was the Delayed Auto-Shift playstyle, in which I hold down left or right on the directional pad in order to move the pieces at a maximum speed of 10 squares per second. I also implemented the quick-tapping technique, in which I quickly release the directional button, and press it again to perform the last movement in a sequence. This was executed to great effect in some of the games I played on this fine evening.
