One example is the Todd Rogers case (he's briefly featured in The King of Kong). Todd claimed to take a polaroid of a score of 5.51 seconds on Dragster that Activision later "verified" (i.e. acknowledged). Recently several independent gamers running simulation software demonstrated the score was impossible, that 5.57 is the lowest limit achievable. But despite the mounting technical evidence Jace initially refused to take action, saying he'd wait a few months before deciding. Then 5 days later, after Rogers' friend and former TG referee Robert Mruczek (featured in KoK) wrote a long blog post basically saying Rogers was a cheater, Jace stripped Rogers of his scores and banned him from competition. The criticism is that he wasn't fast enough to act on technical evidence but then arbitrarily relies on testimony from one person. But again, I sympathize with the guy. To overturn a 37-year-old record based on what an algorithm says and what Activision itself said in 1981 is tough. If he acted right away that would have p* off others. It's a thankless job, IMHO. But he had to know that when bought it.
