Honestly dude, i have absolutely no knowledge about php and everything and i managed to make it work, you just have to follow steps written in all threads...
If this can help you:
1- download wampserver for your os (last version, i used version 2.2 with php 5.3.13 in it)
2- install it
3- save the script (copy/paste the last script ericjohn gave p16 of this thread in notepad) as whatevernameyouwant.php (be sure it's saved as a php file)
4- get your uid and ticket on the source page of tbc.tetrisfb.com (if you do not find them, just ctrlf+f user and ticket). Be careful to not close the windows of tbc and the source page!
5- edit your script with your uid and ticket and save it
6- now, right click on your php file, open with the php.exe file you have in wamp\bin\php\php5.3.13\php.exe
And it should work !
If it does not work, open wamp manager and check in php extensions if curl is activated, if it's not active it.
NB: with wamp you do not need mcrypt on windows !
Hope this helps
