[Ted's Cabin]

Lets not pretend like Billy himself isn't austic as fuck for dedicating his life to defending his donkey kong scores and that somehow he wouldn't be aware of the rules for validating those scores

I'd take one guy who treats videogames as a business over the ten million power tripping lunatics that embody speedrunning.

Maybe learn to spell first before accusing others of autism, sperg.

Who cares about a typo? This is deep into retard territory

 

[Colon capital V]

I guess pedantry > content?

If I was a sperg I'd have taken the time to double check my spelling to not offend faggots like you

>learning to type correctly like a proper functioning adult is sperg behavior now
Yeah keep coping autist, you're only proving why April 2025 nutroons deserve to get mocked, lmao.

He did what you're actually supposed to do with any acomplishment. He build a Brand and marketed it. Then He reinvested that money into his own Business.
Imagine any speedrunner who broke Zelda, or whathaveyou, would have done that instead of keep grinding in their gooncave.

Let's not pretend Billy is not paid handsome money for appearing at various events thanks to his rep as the first famous pro at some silly billy arcade from the First Age of Video Games. How much cash is Karl paid just to "be there"?

Maybe learn to spell first before accusing others of autism, sperg.

TIL that bad spelling = autism.

i think there's something missing regarding the allegations of using MAME to cheat in Donkey Kong... what Billy can cheat in Donkey Kong in MAME and how?

old arcade games are not that easy to hack and modifying the game's code can bork the game. that's why most of game modding even today is sprite/model swaps, variables/number swaps. in fact modern games are easier to hack than old arcade games (I even have encountered a new game made in UE that has 3D models in the files unencrypted).

so what could use MAME to cheat? score multiplier/bonus multiplier/time multiplier? that would be an easy way to get caught. enemy pattern change,player and enemy hitbox? that would require a huge effort of changing the game's code and possibly bork the game. other than the flames, the barrels and the trampolines have only 2 patterns and they are random, only going faster and faster the more you finish the stage. lives? would be too much obvious. modifying dip switches? the only dip switch settings Donkey Kong has is the starting lives, how many coins per play and bonuse life and specific points

save and load states? these speedrunning troons, even Karl has been exposing cheaters splicing footage but Karl has never brought up any evidence of splicing footage regarding the Billy's supposed "Donkey Kong MAME run" on VHS

I think Karl and everybody else accusing Billy Mitchell using MAME to cheat in Donkey Kong still lack something. what advantage does using MAME bring to the game

If Billy was austic he'd have taken the time to double check the rules to not offend faggots like you. :^)

The only people still seething about that old MAME scandal are spergs and trannies who are stuck 15 years in the past due to advanced brain rot. Considering the disproportionate amount of backlash he's received over such a trivial issue, even after he replicated the disputed scores on real hardware, I can't really fault him for getting fed up and dragging some of the more persistent retards into court.

TIL that bad spelling = autism.

what Billy can cheat in Donkey Kong in MAME and how?

IIRC there were some allegations that Billy might've slowed the game down in MAME by like 5% or so, sped up the playback in MAME and recorded that. But it was really shaky and it was more idle speculation even then.

even after he replicated the disputed scores on real hardware

Just because Billy did it later doesn't mean he did it back when he claimed he did in 2007 or 2010. Besides even ersatz_cats (begrudgingly) admitted that Billy is good at Pacman and Donkey Kong.

 

[RandomGibberish]

Was Billy Mitchell secretly the Donald Trump of Donkey Kong the whole time and we were victims of BDS (Billy Derangement Syndrome) ?

TL;DR: MAME allows you to subtly fudge the way the game behaves, like giving you better patterns. Or playing the same way on every level, every time, so you can memorize all the gotchas and easily get that high score on your final try. It's like beating an NES game with the Game Genie plugged - even if you did not actually input any cheat codes for the recorded playthrough, it's very suspect because why would you even need it there if you claim you've done it without cheat codes?

 

[Ted's Cabin]

Aint no way bro specifically made an account just to sperg at me for telling another autist to learn how to spell (inb4 alt).

Bro's so mad he had to make a sock account to call for backup.

Why are you typing like this? Do you have brain damage?

There is a 1:1 correlation between low quality posts and being a regular of the sharty thread.

I post on the farms and sharty thread so that's a given obviously, but at least I know how to spell my words correctly before casting stones at others for being mentally deficient.
Anyways I'll stop shitting up this thread for making autist(s) seethe and dilate that they can't spell and will leave it at that so this thread can get back on topic.

i think there's something missing regarding the allegations of using MAME to cheat in Donkey Kong... what Billy can cheat in Donkey Kong in MAME and how?

The main theory I would see from others on how he utilized MAME for his world records is save states that let you reload the game at any point you choose, Donkey Kong is known to have some bullshit RNG involved and people think this is Billy's way of getting around it. I've also seen people say over the years that he got Todd Rodgers (proven cheater) to splice the VHS tape for him, but this whole story is pretty ridiculous since the footage visually looks unaltered outside of the issues the VHS copy seemed to have in the documentary.

MAME also allows different controllers or arcade board setups, having an 8 way joystick would apparently make the game a lot easier as you are able to control the movement of the barrels in your favor. He used a red joystick (they are usually black) in 2007 which was believed to be an 8 way stick by many people, I really haven't seen the verification for this and it could have just been a 4 way replacement stick that happened to be colored red.

The truth is that having a fully completed MAME arcade machine back in 2006 was considered a luxury, you could load up any compatible arcade game you want without having to switch out the board and play everything on your own choice of hardware. I think it's more than likely Billy used one as his main machine, he could customize it however he wanted and didn't have to put up with an uncalibrated tube or aging components from 1981. You can make an objectively better machine this way if you wanted to, one with more satisfying controls, improved reliability and a much sharper CRT display without breaking the "rules" of the game. Overall Billy could have done a lot to win his score, but aside from using a modified joystick in his 2007 record there is no confirming that he had cheated in his earlier MAME scores.

I hope Karl says something retarded in his discord soon so we don't have to read about this other guy's charity scandal anymore.

It is a complete derailment of the thread.

[The sticky sock]

Not that I think you're being sincere.

But it's like trying catch rain in cups and it needs to be poured into a bucket. Some of the cups are broken so you need to pour them into other cups before it spills. You don't know when it's going to rain so all have to run outside. The person who is meant to empty the bucket doesn't know where to empty it.

Is that simple enough for you to understand?

I don't want people to think I argue in bad faith so i'll just round up the discussion so we can move on.

You're gay, moving on.

 

[Blipli]

How many more days does Karl Jobber have left to file the appeal?

 

[Lukie]

Looks like the janny cleaned up too quick! It would have been on point.

I hadn't considered if Karl was taken to court the onus would be on him to prove embezzlement.
