Odd that this shows up on HN now, when I just started watching Karl's videos this past winter. It's a small internet.
Anyhow, I wonder how much the degraded components would affect Donkey Kong and whether similar degradation could account for Todd Roger's record for Dragster.
I also hope that other people Karl has called out aren't gonna go after him now, because with the financial loss and emotional grievance he's gonna be dealing with it would be hard to fend off additional lawsuits.

- shadefinale 2y agoIn the dragster case, we don't have anything like video proof of the supposed record. There was an effort to examine the source code of the game and determine a theoretical best time which has been matched but not exceeded. To explain Todd's record would require some alternative way of having such a score such as proving he played on a prototype/alternate version of the game at the time he claimed to have set his record. Do note that this case has 0% to do with cheating in video games. The judge listed 5 'imputations' made by Karl which seem to be the main points/infractions and cheating, donkey kong, etc do not appear there. The scope of the judgement is related to Karl's statements about Billy's interactions with Apollo that ended up to be untrue.
