What is this? My computer opponent and I were tied 2-2, in hard mode, about 2:30 into the fifth match, and all of a sudden the words "tie-breaker" flashed on the screen. Then I lost suddenly, without having a block cross the line (I don't think, anyhow...)
Could somebody tell me what the hell is going on?
Thanks,

I saw a blind carpenter shouting "One day I'll see it all," and then he put down his hammer and saw.
I think that a tiebraker occurs when you both loose at exactly the same time (or win, I suppose, though that would be much rarer).

Tie breaker happens when you both go below the line. I have seen this, especially when playing against clan/guild leaders..

This has happend to me too, tie brake mode sure is hard the bricks drop faster than your able to clear them

Heh, this happened to me, too. When i was playing moki about a week ago, we went into a tie-breaker, which went into another tie-breaker before he beat me. That was fun.

I had two of those today - they are sweet but don't loose control at that crucial stage in the game.
