.:: OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT ::.

Netris = Tetris but networked to add some flavor, instead of points
         your goal is just to bombard the other player with these peices.

        One player mode is useless since there isn't any goal, no points, you can't
 win.  The only thing good about single player mode is you get to tune up your skills
rather than looking like an idiot playing expirienced players.

TIPS: Most players attempt to go for 4 line bombs when the often get caught up
in a mess.  The trick is try to rarely make sinle line completions (since it doesn't
effect the other player) instead, go by twos or threes.
