What's bizarre to me is Billy telling Carlos to tell the truth. Billy knows what the truth is, and he sure as hell doesn't want that getting out. Billy just believed that he would have cast his spell on Carlos the same way he did all of his other nut riders that believe every word he says.

So long and short is that he as the authority on the subject lied to a group of people who didn't know any better and some of the bigger ones defended it on the basis of, "it's not that important"(they were literally reporting that he got the world's first perfect game which is super big for people in that sphere. why is it suddenly not important when people are saying it is wrong?) and the literal toddler logic of, "he was nice to us"(chances are a lot people who want to harm you will be nice upfront. it's fine since he was nice to us is awful and dangerous logic). I don't get how people take him seriously or how people in his camp seem to think people being there means anything when he can simply lie and the people with no way to disprove his lies will just accept the lie.

I love how TG claimed gemeral damages or $3 333 360, the same number as a perfect Pac-Man. If it was unintentional, it's the funniest coincidence in the world. If it was somewhat intentional, it's the most epic troll of all time. I think there was a rationale to it, they probably calucluated the damages to 3 350 000 or something and changed it to match a perfect Pac-Man score.

Going to a different country to play in their home tournament, in my opinion, is disrespectful. The top 10 places should have gone to Australians imo. The fact that he took top spot from an Australian is a giant middle finger to the country. And I would give him the benefit of the doubt saying he likely had no malicioua intent if he hadn't already demonstrated dispresect towards top players from other countries. When he broke his agreement not to take the perfect Pacman title until everyone who wanted to go for it met up again, he rubbed in the face of the top Pacman player from Canada (allegedly) and made it clear that in his mind, it was an international dick measuring contest. Now, this is alleged, but after reading what Billy said about Apollo Legend's death, I totally belive he's that petty. He couldn't stand the thought of someone from another country ranking above him. And that's not the only time he was alleged to show disrespect to top players from other countries. If he respected the Australian DK community, he would let them have their glory. If he doesn't respect them enough not to steal from their home competition, it's easy to believe he would ignore their rules to ensure he qualifies. And come to think of it, if he did hog a DK machine until he was able to qualify and everyone else had to get back in line when they fell short, he literally stole thunder from a more worthy Australian player. To be fair, if the Aussie DK community was cool with him competing, I would say that's their right and their business. But I strongly suspect most players didn't get a say in the matter. If I was in Billy's position, and I got imvited to compete in another country, I would agree to show up and play for charity, but I would humbly refuse to qualify for a rank in the tournament. I know lots of top Hockey players on American teams are Canadian, but that's different. Because when the team wins, the home of the team gets the glory. If Billy was invited to play for an Australian esports team, that would be fine, since the team would get the glory if they ranked first in the competition. Think of it this way: should a student be allowed to compete in another schools talent show or audition for the leading role in their play or be their prom queen? Of course not. That steals the opportunity from students of the school in question. TL;DR Billy Mitchell competing in the Australian tournament was disrespectful to the Aussie DK community.

It's really sad to see Walter Day exposed as basically a con man himself. He comes accross as very likeable and humble in his films, and I used to think he was probably a pretty cool guy. But the lies he's telling on Billy's behalf (not to mention Todd Todger's behalf) are so petty and preposterous. I was also disappointed to find out he maintained contact with the dude who got exposed as a child predator. What for? I mean, I guess that's his prerogative. But i don't know why you would stay on friendly terms with someone like that. You obviously can't trust someone who would do a thing like that for years and hide it. I respect the idea of hating the evil deed and not the evil doer, but that doesn't mean you should associate eith those types of people. Pardon my tangent, but I had respect for Walter Day before all this stuff came out.

Update: the GameStop manager was found! His story contradicts Billy's. He says there was no way the cabinet could have been recorded off of since he installed the DK board and locked the cabinet with no recording equipment. The fact that Billy's alleged Mortgage Brokers gameplay was recorded with direct capture strongly suggests that he either didn't play that day at all, or played an entirely different game than the one he claims to have gotten the record on. This is confirmed by the Chairwoman of the convention claiming Billy only played for about 15 minutes before he claimed to have gotten the record. Add to that the pictures that show a red joystick on the machine, and there is literally no way Billy got his record on a legitimate arcade that day. We already knew that, but still.

When I played this game in Green Acres Mall in Valley Stream, NY back in the mid-80s, I noticed no cherried bricks were programmed into the game. As a result, I could not score over 200K (thanks to the multiplying blue unicorns, of course).
