What is with the practice mode!? No undo-ing! :)

Thanks for validating the strategy.

Great score too!

Practice mode?  Fuck, have I been playing in hard mode the entire time?

I too have been in "hard mode". Though an undo probably has a little less help than expected.

It'd help when playing on my phone as it'll pick up the wrong swipe from time to time (and generally at the worse possible time)

Yeah... That happened to me when I got the big score. It gave me an accidental down swipe... And essentially ended it for me.

I don't undo, no need too :p

But seriously, it just defaults to that. I'd have to look to see how to change it.

Are you using an app or the website?

An app that just repackaged the source from that site. The app fits the screen better.

I hate you Jen!

played a few times last night and got to 1024. Will try again today. Wish I read Beta's tips though!
Do not follow where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

Once more to prove it wasn't a fluke.

It is much easier on the desktop as the keys don't register false swipes like the phone does.

That app is cheating.  Once you get to 2048 it is suppose to stop.

Dammit!  I followed the rules and somehow got to the point where I had to push down.... which put a 2 in the upper left corner and fucked me... I had a 1024, 512, 256 all on the board.  Final score 15K.  :(  So close.
