I think the most ludicrous part of the whole saga is that the game is Dragster. Not Super Mario Bros. Not Pac-Man, nor Centipede, nor Pokemon, nor Minecraft, nor Tetris.

I remember reading a funny story about Rogers on a retro gamers blog several years ago. This guy was at a retro gaming convention and he had a rented a booth to sell his stuff. He happened to have two loose copies of Dragster on his table that were for sale. He said Rogers stopped by and they talked for several minutes. He said Todd was very nice and that they had a good conversation. A little later on he needed to use the bathroom so he had his young son watch over things while he was gone. When he got back he later noticed that Rogers had autographed both copies of Dragster without asking permission to do so. He included pictures of the carts in his blog post and Rogers had signed them and included his fake time as part of the autograph. He said he didn't ever say anything but it bothered him that Rogers had done this without his permission.

This situation has stopped being funny once these weirdos started suing everyone left and right so props to you Karl for keeping up the great humor, you really killed it with the closing statement lmao. All the best man, take care.

The craziest thing from this, is that he originally tries to battle this in court back in 2017. He loses the case, and goes dormant for 5 years, and comes back to retry a case basically the same lawsuit but with a different way to sue for the same amount that he tried to get 5 years ago in order to not be legally be in a double jeopardy situation in which a person cannot sue for the same charges twice after the first was dismissed or closed or a mistrial, whichever the case occurred. At least if I was a judge that's the conclusion I would have come to anyhow. It's so crazy that these people because of something so trivial they accomplished over 30 years ago, and because the courts deemed it not even worthy to even try any of these cases, Todd and Billy basically doubles and triples down by attempting to sue basically for the same case under different wording to get the same amount of money they originally sued for years ago..

Lawsuits can take literal _years_ to be settled. Karl will likely be locked in a legal battle with Mitchell for a while longer still.

I cant stop thinking about how he misspelled his own name in a lawsuit once.. like love how do you manage unless you're dyslexic and if you're dyslexic why would you even try to sue anyone by yourself..

As a lawyer, I have to give you a lot of praise for this video, like your other law-related videos. As far as it goes for KZread content produced by non-lawyers, it really is top notch and shows a real engagement with the issues. Any attorney would be quite proud to have such a sophisticated client-and happier still to represent you on a case as hilarious and near-sanctionable as this.

I was wondering when the next episode of Todd Togers would come. What a glorious day. Thank you Karl.

Todd and Karl are in cahoots. I got it all figured out. There's no way the esteemed Mr. Togers, holder of the world's oldest video game record (and probably the coolest and most impressive feat in human history if we're being honest), renowned ladies man, expert strategist, and all around staple of the gaming community, could possibly be doing something this stupid without some bigger plan. It must be for content. Yep, that's what it is.

Randomly switching between Rogers and Togers was a great addition

1:28 I've done that! There was some airplane dambuster game for the C64 I used to play, and I very quickly twigged that there was an optimum release point. When I found it, on went the tape. The difference is that I had no intention whatsoever of leveraging my score for anything. What happened in a playroom in suburbia stayed in a playroom in suburbia.

I suspect that's why he's representing himself in court. No lawyer would pick up the case. "A lawyer that represents himself has a fool for a client".

4:58 By that logic, that 5.51 Dragster time that Todd claims he got would be the first ever tool assisted speedrun.

Man I knew Todd personally. Haven't spoken to him in over a decade. He was a chill dude I met who would come where I worked with his parents shopping and we would talk about games and stuff. He introduced me to King of Kong, Twin Galaxies and all that stuff. To see him become this is pretty expected. I don't hate him but I wish he would move on and figure out something else with his life.

I would actually love to see Todd and Billy submit runs to GDQ for Dragster and Donkey Kong.

As I was watching the video, I saw the sentence "Plaintiff received monetary from the sale of Plaintiff's book." at 8:25 and I was surprised that Karl didn't call attention to it. That's one hell of a sentence, and I wanted to point it out. After I finished the video, I went back to find the time stamp so people could see what I was going to refer to. Before typing this comment, I took a few seconds and read the rest of what is displayed. There are 5 sentences on screen at that time stamp, and only one is typo free. Gotta love Pro Se filings.

A good theory, but Guinness book does not give royalties or payments to those it features. All you get is fame and notoriety.
