I'd pay good money just to watch Billy and Null fight it out in a cage.At this point I believe that Billy could actually get the forums shut down if he wanted to.
My money's on the moon man.

It really isn't. Billy Mitchell cheats at nipponese baby toy and can't even get real record. I loved the interview with the Nip inventor of space invaders where he talked about how incredibly shit the hardware was and how they worked that into the design of the cabinet.Another win for America.
Maybe if he keeps sperging out or possibly becomes the first Albino Troon.I predict the birth of a Karl Jobst thread within the next week.
If Billy wants to dig himself out of cheat grove, all he really needs to do is train the fuck up and lay it down on a black stick cabinet.
And actually have skills other than cheating and be like 40 years younger.If Billy wants to dig himself out of cheat grove, all he really needs to do is train the fuck up and lay it down on a black stick cabinet.
Late note here - Jobst borrowed that nickname, the guy who came up with it was Roy Schilf, an arcade game(Missile Command) record holder who was contemporaneous with Mitchell and the rest of the old TG crowd, whom he couldn't stand. Pretty sure Jobst has shown the video clip where Schilf dunks on Mitchell and Rogers a few times.Thats because, if anyone could, Silly Bitchell (by far the greatest thing Karl Jobst will ever contribute to humanity is this hilarious nickname for old Billy) would somehow find a way to pursue legal action past the mortal realm.
To be fair, Apollo had fucked his chances in court into the next galaxy by his absolutely autistic antics (turning up to some old fogeys' event featuring Mitchell while dressed up as Billy and doing a sort of "interview" with the man himself, footage of which he either livestreamed or released as a video). To be absolutely clear, this was after Mitchell had filed suit against him.I was there during Apollo's "Stop Billy Mitchell" thing few years ago and many people were warning him that he's an idiot who's going to get skinned alive in court.
Billy's scores aren't even close to the top now. The King of Kong movie revitalized the game so there's a ton of competition that wasn't there before. Sure he's good, but he would have to grind like crazy at this point to be competitive again, which is probably why he cheated in the first place.If Billy wants to dig himself out of cheat grove, all he really needs to do is train the fuck up and lay it down on a black stick cabinet.
I don't even mind if he has some greaseball fuck tune the machine up first, wouldn't be far off from the actual arcade. One youtube channel I watch talked about how all the grease and filth fucked the machines, and that was their lived in environment.
So reflow the caps, remagnatize the faggotron, whatever the shit needs to be done to get the kong machine in fighting trim, and then throw beardo into another record run.
Exactly. All of this is just meaningless and I always make fun of spedrunners when they "celebrate" a PB. Like what the fuck is the accomplishment? A few numbers on a screen?I like some of Karl's videos, primarily about WATA (which is really a scummy business), but these legal battles with both Billy and potentially Jirard (who has threatened legal action) are starting to take a toll on him mentally to where he's getting worked up over a video of Null mentioning him crying over a speedrun to the point of getting it taken down. If you truly are that insecure, then maybe, just maybe, you know deep down that speedrunning/highscores for videogames is a big fucking meme and a waste of time. Compare that to athletes who win a big game or get a gold medal and break down in tears. How many times has Tom Brady been made fun of for crying? A lot. But he doesn't give a fuck, he's god damn Tom Brady.
So yes, I do want to see Billy succeed, because a clown like him deserves to fail upwards like DSP and become king of shit mountain.
There's also the problem of age - your reaction time deteriorates with increasing age, and I wouldn't be surprised if the current leaderboard was dominated by young players.Billy's scores aren't even close to the top now. The King of Kong movie revitalized the game so there's a ton of competition that wasn't there before. Sure he's good, but he would have to grind like crazy at this point to be competitive again, which is probably why he cheated in the first place.
Also as someone who works on pinball and sometimes arcade games, there really isn't anything you have to do with most 4-way leaf switch joysticks besides maybe clean the contacts. Sure gunk could have gotten in there but it's not really likely to affect it. Replacing the big capacitors on the PCB also helps but those being out of spec wouldn't really affect the gameplay, they're more of an audio/video quality thing. Recapping the monitor is probably the more important thing.
Better men pretending to be women then Billy have tried to shut this place down and failed.At this point I believe that Billy could actually get the forums shut down if he wanted to.
Good luck with that. He's an old man. No way he has the reflexes he used to, and he'd have to beat every subsequent person who beat the living SHIT out of his ancient record.If Mitchell can show his hands on legitimate inputs along with his gameplay and somehow prove that he's playing on original or equivalent hardware, I don't think anyone would care if he regained the title of Lord of The Ape Game.
