Best I could do is five lines, and even that felt like it was because the game was optimized to prevent "any line now" rather than "any lines in future".

Method: If you lay the "s" pieces on their tip, next to each other horizontally, starting from one side, when you get to having a gap of two left on the other side, it changes to giving you line pieces. You can then lay these line pieces horizontally on top of the s pieces to create a full "wall" eight blocks wide all the way to the top. Then start filling in the two-wide column to start making lines. Best this seems to give is five.

Has anyone made it to six? Is it possible?

Edit: after reading more of the comments here, I see the high score is 31!!! Wow, didn't expect that -- it is neat to watch it through:

That's awesome (and props to the creator for including such a convenient replay system) :)
