This bullshit Karl said on Twitter on April 4th 2025 after losing is a complete and utter lie. Every time he's in trouble he defaults back to "aw shucks, all I ever wanted to do was celebrate speedrunning and world records until the evil Billy sidetracked me." He tried to pull the same scam during the trial.

This was September 2024. Under questioning from lawyers, trying to impress the judge, Karl broke down crying and said he just wanted to make nice positive videos about people who play games quickly.
Do you know what Karl ACTUALLY did after saying that in court last year? Here are all the videos since then:

4 videos about speedrunning.
8 videos about drama.
2 videos about Billy Mitchell.
Karl likes to say he'll change his ways, then he never does. He always reverts to publicly calling people out. Billy's lawyer accurately captured Karl's true intentions by quoting an interview he did with Camelot:
"So if I was Billy, I’d be shitting myself. And also, like, the last person on YouTube you want to lose to is me. ‘Cuz you know there’s gonna be a hundred vids rubbing it in afterwards. Like, Billy will never… I will never let Billy forget this. Assuming I win. I mean, I understand I’ve… I’ve gotta win first. But man, if I win, oh boy, I’m not gonna be a good winner. I’m not gonna be a good winner." - Karl Jobst.
The judge was, in fact, not gullible. The judge saw through Karl's lies just fine.
You know why Karl's loss is satisfying, don't you.
Financially ruin? No, but it's going to hurt him. A surprise 350k AUD legal bill (interest + attorney's fees not included!) is going to hurt anyone unless you're Jeff Bezos.
You're underestimating the costs.
$350,000 judgement.
$40,000 interest.

Karl says his legal fees are "well over $600k". He also has to pay (all?) Billy's fees.
We have no official word on Billy's fees but Karl himself estimates Billy's legal spending to be half his own, so let's say $300k.
This gives me a conservative estimate of Karl having to pay:
$1,290,000 kangaroo dollars.
$819,000 American dollars.
€726,000 euros.
£619,071 pounds.


Impossible to say whether Karl is including the $200,000 he
