J, T, L, i

You've heard of I pieces, but what about lowercase i pieces? Eddie Izzard's web site (http://www.eddieizzard.com/things/default.htm) has a tetromino game where some of the I pieces have a block missing in the middle. Pieces seem to rotate in a 4x4 bounding box, clockwise only. No hard drop...

Interesting gimmick. The lowercase i-pieces made for really easy T-spin setups, but the game didn't allow the rotation of the T into the slot.

Nifty. I like the commentary, "no not that one" "turn it and, no go the other way" "drop it in quick."

"Special"? "Annoying"? "Argh not that one"?
