Baked Alaska got arrested after unprovokedly assaulting a bouncer and other people with mace after being kicked out in an autistic fit of petty revenge

Lou Gagliardi has been admitted to hospital with an "infection".

Before he locked his Twitter he posted this gem:

But it's OK yinz guis, it still might not be diabetes (I think that's what "professional writer" Lou is trying to say here). Even though:

- He has been complaining of chills and hot flushes
- He has a massive rotting ulcer in his foot
- His shins have turned black
- He is throwing up after meals

It's totally not diabetes guys, despite those being pretty much every symptom and Lou being 400+ pounds and subsisting entirely on Burger King. Friends and foes alike have been urging him to see a doctor and he has refused, insisting that he's fine and it's all "concern trolling", even from his own orbiters who he blocked after they told him to visit a fucking doctor holy shit:

Popular Minecrafter/Speed runner Dream has had one of his speedruns removed for cheating (Autistic 29 page pdf)


Reddit Thread on r/speedun

Dreams response of his subreddit r/dreamwastaken
There's a lot of posts here about my 1.16 speedrun time removal, and some people upset with my response on Twitter. Obviously, I didn't cheat in any way and I plan on making a video to address these things. However, it will take time for me to thoroughly and completely address it, as the accusations took two months for the mods to work on. It's not something I can throw together in a day, and is going to require a lot of my attention.

To clear up misinformation though, my 1.15 record remains up and verified, and I was not banned from submitting runs. My 1.16 (16th place, but 5th place when I got it) run was unverified due to the seemingly incredible statistical odds that I could have had the luck that I did over a few day period.

As I didn't cheat, I know that there's going to be a way to disprove the statistics, but again, I'm not a mathematician and I don't know how. I'm going to be most likely hiring multiple well renowned statisticians to look at the numbers, and most likely have a roll in my response. On top of that, most likely talking with Minecraft developers, as well as other prominent figures regarding it.

I understand that the numbers presented look suspicious, because they are not numbers you would ever expect to see during a non-glitched series of speedruns. I don't disagree with that, but I do have doubts that these numbers are entirely accurate, and I have doubts about the mods intent to fairly investigate my side.

As for addressing the physical side of "how" I may have cheated, I can completely and fully beyond a reasonable doubt prove that I did not use a mod or datapack during my speedruns, and how I can prove that will obviously be talked about in the video. It's not related to the statistics, but it does show that it is much much more likely that the statistics are off (or that there is some other contributing factor).

As for the video made by Geosquare, there was certain bits of misleading information, like the lie that I said that I "delete my mod contents regularly" (something that was never said). It made it seem like I was not cooperating with the investigation. I fully cooperated and provided every file that was ever requested from me, and I will be making those files public at some point in the future. On top of that, it was stated that I am a mod developer, when I have never developed a mod in my life, and do not know how to develop a mod. I can also reasonably prove this, and I offered the mod team at multiple points all of my development related files so they can tell that I did not code anything related to Minecraft RNG. It was also stated that it made it suspicious that I had "Fabric API" loaded, without mentioning why I had it loaded. I had provided the information of why I had Fabric API downloaded well before any suspicion involving Fabric API was brought forward. I volunteered the information that I did in fact have Fabric API downloaded, as I had nothing to hide. The log files that they showed in the video were again, volunteered by myself, as I had nothing to hide.

So as for the numbers, they seem very high, but they're most likely completely wrong. When working with numbers this big, one small mistake and it drops by orders of magnitudes. The numbers have fluctuated throughout the investigation, and according to inside sources where being debated internally up until minutes before the post. Numbers can be misleading, and have been used to falsely convict people in the justice system (unrelated to Minecraft), tens of thousands of times in the past, until later conflicting reports come out. I advise anyone that thinks that it's "1 in 10 trillion" or whatever was said, to hold your tongue and wait until I'm able to get statisticians to provide most likely more accurate numbers. In their paper there are a few obvious things I can point out, like the fact that they use "1000 speedrunners" as a quote "generous upper bound" for their statistics, when there are over 900 submitted runs on 1.16 Java edition alone, not to mention the around 10,000 people in the speedrun discord, and the tens of thousand of other people that speedrun. While constantly stating that these calculations are "biased towards me" and that they used numbers "favorable to me", they call things like that an "upper bound", when I would point out that it is nearly a "lower bound" because we at bare minimum 1000% know there are at least that many speedrunners.

As well as addressing the things above in the video, I also do have to address the harassment from the mods and verifiers that I received throughout the investigation. Although not important to the statistics, it is very important to the conclusion, as statistics can be interpreted one way or another. It's also important to me, and definitely helps explain my less thought out more agitated responses. There's a lot that almost no one knows about that went on behind the scenes, and I'll definitely be talking about that. It's not me whining about bias when it's not there, there is genuine bias, but that doesn't invalidate the statistics.

Otherwise, for now, sit tight. You've heard one argument that took 60 days to prepare, from a group of volunteers. I'll try and make sure that my response touches on all the important things, but I will need time to put it together. Hope this clears my thought process up a little bit though.

Why can't he just say, "it's over a trillion to one however you look at it, good science is repeatable, my speedruns should be as well, taking them down was the right move", or something like that? Why is he trying so hard?
