Dispute Evidence / Rationale	Still going with the good ol' crap score removal. (I invite anyone else interested in helping clean things up to look at the first link below, find any of those scores that are on TG, and dispute them with a copy or paraphrasing of the text of this dispute.) This score was added to the database from an external site. https://goo.gl/wUb5X8 (link to internet archive mirror) Evidence is strong that this site did absolutely no validations of any of the scores, accepting all claims as valid. Just looking at the content of the page, with just a form to "submit" a score, shows this to be likely. Further, multiple scores added to the database from this external list have already been disputed and removed due to being impossible, (see this dispute: https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthr...13,343,567,930) which should itself be sufficient to show that nothing on that list should be considered trustworthy. Also, this particular score is attributed to a person that is not a TG user, and has submitted no scores to TG at any point. I believe this score does not meet any of the standards for inclusion on TG and should be removed.

I recently learned that my Atari Jaguar high scores from the late 1990s that were imported here long ago were disputed and removed based on a specious "guilt by association" argument. I created an account here and requested that these disputes be reopened so I could prove that I did in fact get these scores.

Since these performances were from over 20 years ago, I obviously don't have video of the actual playthroughs available, but I do have video that I just captured today on the same console showing the stored high scores that match the original submissions.

I've attached a .zip file to this message containing the relevant video evidence. If anything else is required to address this dispute, please let me know.

Attachment 138401

This players scores seem to be legit, Voting NO to this dispute.

This just goes to show that just because records were imported from other sources in TG's early history that doesnt mean they were not genuinely and fairly accomplished.

For what it's worth, it appears that the dispute has been withdrawn for one of the five scores that I provided evidence for (https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthr...33#post1060733).

Since all of the disputes related to my imported scores used the same rationale, and I provided comparable evidence for all of them to show that the originally posted scores are still stored on my system, it would make sense for all of the disputes to be resolved the same way. If the remaining 4 aren't withdrawn by the disputer, then I would kindly ask folks to vote "No" on the remainder of these disputes, including this one.
