OK, which one of you trolls in this thread is new member Sanjuro over at the Donkey Kong forum? Fess up! LMAO.
Mod Edit: Link removed.
Everyone should read this thread IMO.

Given his malfeasance even before the faked Donkey Kong scores, I think the saddest reactions are from people cheer-leading his ongoing lies. We have the benefit of 20/20, and the benefit of video evidence showing exactly what happened. This account of events isn't even in question.
When you act in bad faith, abuse authority, and actively cheat in competition, there's a reason you're banned outright. Responding to getting caught doing that by disparaging others and stacking lie-upon-lie demonstrates exactly what Mitchell is worth. Anyone spending their energy propping up a person like that is a step below even that sort of self-serving dreg.

As pointed out at DKF, his 'redemption' gameplay only reinforces his cheating. He can hit a million reliably using techniques that have been developed by others in the last few years. His faked videos show him using completely different technique. He can't hit a million using the play style shown in his faked videos. But if you're using save states to cheat the RNG it doesn't matter what style you are using.
It grew out of the situation that Twin Galaxies was corrupt and their leaderboards couldn't be trusted, and the world knew it.
Quotes for new page as a lot of this is overlooked even by those who don't like Mitchell
Man, you are really are that upset about a grown man being able to play a video game? Pathetic.
Also, not a new member. I've been active in the community for years now.

His comment doesn't come off as being upset. He's also not referring to here with the new member comment. He's referring to the DKF.

Dude, you are straight up trolling Donkey Kong Forum. Are you personal friends with Billy Mitchell?
Nobody is stopping Billy Mitchell from playing games just like nobody is stopping Lance Armstrong from going on a bike ride.
Ain't nobody mad, we are laughing.

Wonderful post. How anybody can still defend this guy in 2018 is beyond me.
Then, why did you make a forum cross shitpost and a "Who are you?", while you are making Trump comparisons in here. Hmm...
I don't think anybody is going to forget his shenanigans, but nobody would be speaking about this if it weren't for Billy and Steve. They are important individuals in this niche video game segment. If he is able to get water out of the stone and surprise us with a top score, puffing your chests and completing the cycle of toxic behavior isn't really going to matter in the end.
Again, I got back into the retro gaming scene shortly after the film. I've met a few of the old and new players and still do yearly trips up to Funspot. It's a fun thing that doesn't need to be bogged down by drama. Relax.
I was referring to DKF.
Please take a breath and relax. The only person being angry is you.
And man, you are trolling the shit out of DKF. I hadn't even noticed your username over here. Your post count over there is super low. You've got TWELVE posts (mostly in that thread?) and a 'New Member' tag. You got called out for your trolling there. It's really obvious. Own it. ;D
I'll put this plainly, because I don't want this to just be some quippy snark:
- It feels like a waste of time to explain why unrepentant cheating, then a campaign of lies to deflect and disparage others (as well as the people accurately reporting events) is bad. There's an obvious point after which it's clear someone isn't acting in good faith, and that's why those people are barred from competition.
- If someone doesn't understand the way persistent, unflinching lies alongside an abuse of authority has obvious parallels to the current US president, it's not worth explaining to them. Using baseless conspiracy theories as information warfare for a cult-like following has obvious similarities, particularly attacking media coverage and posturing yourself as the only reliable information source (without actual substance to your claims). Don't take it personally, except where it applies to your behavior. It's a pop-culture reference, don't overthink it.
- If someone's primary interaction in two threads across two sites seems to be to as hostile apologist effectively asking people to stop talking about newsworthy events and figures, I don't know that I have much to say to them. Someone criticizing cheating doesn't mean they're against people taking part in the hobby; It means they're against people compromising the healthy competitive scene within that hobby.
- If someone finds themselves regularly characterizing the emotional state of others in the discussion instead of replying to people's actual points, that's often projection. It's not conducive to good discussion in the first place, but it's also (usually) a transparent tactic to deflect from their actual points.

It was not the point were people did not think he could do it.
It was just on the summited scores he cheated.
Yes he is and always was really good at DK, no question about that.

Really good, but he was not as good as Wiebe in 2006. He can only match his faked scores from then by adapting techniques that have been developed by others since; not by using the play style of his fake videos.
Now he'll go for 1.1 million using the techniques that the 1.1 million players have developed and so on.
I'm not angry. You're continuing to bring off-site content here, calling me names, and looking into my post history? I mean, why? You apparently missed my join date and the fact the board has live chat.
Dude you've got 11 posts there in the thread you are trolling and only 12 in your entire posting history just stop now, you are embarrassing yourself LOL.
Everybody knows about sleeper accounts, ERA and the old site have had to deal with those.
For the record when I noticed the trolling over there I didn't even know you had an ERA account under the same name, hadn't noticed.
Sleeper accounts? Embarassing myself? What are you even talking about?
Cut out the inter-forum drama. Don't make posts just to discuss threads or posts on other forums.
Can I ask for a point of clarity why it's ok to link to Facebook accounts and Twitter account but not ok to link to posts on another public forum? I'm not trying to be antagonistic it just struck me as odd.
It's one thing to link to another forum/social media page/etc., if you are posting about some news, or "check out this thing I found." It's another to link to those places for the sole purpose of creating unnecessary drama. If you have any other questions you can PM me any time.
