2020 CTWC is here! Here's a quick explanation of the online format: Players from all over the world had 2-hours to qualify and post their highest scores. Then the top 64 were distributed into 8 separate double elimination brackets labeled as Groups A-H. The winner of each Group went on to compete in the Top 8 on December 6th. Players making it to the Top 8 were reseeded based on their performance in their group, and the final Top 8 bracket reverted to a best-of-five single elimination bracket with players receiving the same piece sequences.
Crew: Streamer - Keith Didion... Judges - Sean Aldas and Chris Foryst... Directors - Vince Clemente and Adam Cornelius... Commentators - Chris Tang and James Chen... Tech Director - Trey Harrison... Interviewer - Arda Ocal

In the 1990 Nintendo World Championship competition, Tetris was the game to beat. The winner, Thor Aackerlund, is still seen by many as the best to have ever played. Today’s Classic Tetris tournaments are played on that same version of Nintendo Tetris, using original NES game systems, controllers, and Tetris cartridges. In 2009, a player named Harry Hong became the first to achieve the highest possible score of 999,999 points. Inspired by this achievement, filmmaker Adam Cornelius produced a short film about Harry called “Max-Out”, and launched a Kickstarter campaign to document the world of competitive Tetris. As word of Adam’s Kickstarter campaign spread, rumors of max-out scores from other Tetris Masters began to surface, threatening the supremacy of Harry’s achievement. With the help of Nintendo World Championship veteran Robin Mihara, Adam searched for all of the Tetris Masters he could find. Jonas Neubauer emerged as an early max-out artist, along with the elusive original champ Thor Aackerlund. The idea of bringing these and other NES Tetris Masters together to compete in a live tournament became an obvious and irresistible proposition which was artfully captured in the 2010 feature length documentary Ecstasy of Order: The Tetris Masters. Under the leadership of producer Vince Clemente, The Classic Tetris World Championship is currently held at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, an annual event which has hosted the tournament since 2012. Chuck Van Pelt and his organizing committee have built the PRGE into the largest classic gaming expo in the country, drawing around 10,000 attendees. Every year the scores get higher. Rivalries are revisited once again, and new players emerge to challenge the old guard. Over 100 players have maxed out the score now. Will you be the next? ecstasyoforder.com thectwc.com
