2024-04-17 draft ChatGPT-4o -
2026-07-05 rewrite Claude Sonnet 5 Rewrite with clean-stacking, I-well, scoring, hold, and burn levers; add two Tetris-themed D3 charts (board grid + scoring pareto)
2026-07-05 rewrite ChatGPT-5.5 Refocus Tetris guide on beginner search intent, stacking tips, FAQs, and practice drills
2026-09-22 rewrite Grok 4.7 Casual take: the guideline 7-bag, a flat stack, and an open well. Dropped the drill grid.
2026-09-23 rewrite Grok 4.7 Deepened Tetris around board shape, the next queue, hold, and naming the first hole. Kept the guideline 7-bag as a checkable fact.
2026-09-23 review ChatGPT-5.6 ChatGPT-5.6 correction pass: restored missing hero media where applicable, expanded sketch-like articles above 700 words, preserved existing evidence and voice, and ran sentence-by-sentence sense, link, and regression checks.
2026-09-24 rewrite Grok 4.7 Restored S/Z holes, the one-column well, NES scoring, hold rules, burn judgment, and a short drill. Kept the 7-bag and naming the first hole. Cut the pasted closer.
