Well as it is the ''collection'' of all tetris games probably for every system written ... it should not matter for people who actually want to play it.

I haven't installed the v 1.118 yet, but i have checked its linker.dll on the virustotal.com .
It is hard to tell without actually running it (maybe in a sandbox ? ).
The sane explanation would be :

Can you add alternating post colors to the NeoDark theme ?
Like every second post in a slightly higher tone ?
It would make the distinction between posts easier, i think.
