Al, sorry to hear you are ill / have a medical condition. I am happy though that you are Canadian and will not have to worry about too many bills regarding health care. I know you are a top tier player and I don't expect you would ever "try to pull a fast one" like some are implying. That being

It�s not a BS dispute. You didn�t follow the rules so your run got disputed. If I had a medical condition that prohibited me from following certain rules (this is a very serious remark not a facetious one) I would make that clear in my submission package if not even blog about it ahead of time to

In your most recent comment before this one - the one that Blackflag quoted - you describe allowances that have been made in TGSAP when the rules have dictated that a particular button be pushed and shown. You also characterized this as some personal attack where the disputer is just �trying to caus

Bud he disputed the score bc you didn�t follow the rules. Full stop. You say the size of the score doesn�t matter then you say why bother disputing such a low inaugural score? Nah man just let it be. Rules are meant to be followed.

When I say �bad faith� I mean he submitted a throwaway not bc it�s a low score but bc he tried to get a No Controller Shown score accepted. Just a thought. Not saying that�s what he did. His initial response accusing swaggers of a �vendetta� seemed pretty strange to me. This is all just conjecture.

TG used to have a rule you had to try and put effort in. Not a fan of it, and glad its gone, sure theres cases where its crystal clear but plenty of corner cases where people are reading minds. I'm on board removing over not using the controller -- thats in the rules. I'm not on board removing ov

this is a bit of a strawman perhaps my last post was too long and it missed my main objection to this and your earlier comment yes everyone needs to be treated the same. BUT now showing the controller on a track that requires showing a controller is totaly different than not showing a controller on

the rules here explicilty ask to see the controller, for other tracks there is no such rule which is why on other tracks its inconsistent. when different tracks have different rules, people arent being inconsistent by applying those diffrent rules i created the rules for stunt cycle to explicilty

well I�m gonna give the jerk answer of �experience�. Earlier members taught me and I pass it on. I guess they could�ve abused their history to trick me and create new rules by claiming it was always that way either way I think we�d all agree it does need to be explicit somewhere

Where do the rules say one player holding both controls is fine? I see it not specifying. Honestly I think this SHOULD be fine but tg default team rules by default have been this isn�t fine. Further tunnel is one of the track creators so I think he knows what he intended I think this a dumb def

Alternatively: DVDs hold 4.4GB and some cameras back then could record 12 hours in under 4GB. Don't think of today's 1080p standards: 640x480 was very common and many cameras didn't record at 30 FPS - 24 and 25 FPS were also common meaning a lot less information to compress. Compression worked eve

Also it could have been submitted as 1hr 55min or something like that and miskeyed, so in order to edit the score we�d need the original evidence or definitive proof of some other kind. It�s a bit of a stretch to simply say �it was supposed to be 55min and 55min is impossible so toss it out.�

I�d like to say the speculation about some number of DVDs being unreasonable to submit or speculation that this person even existed in the first place is irrelevant and a bit misguided. It does nothing to further the dispute. Is it possible someone played for 55hr? Totally but you�re right it�s hi

I’m a fan of finding historically what was the easiest rule set and reverting to that. If we revert to easiest those who played harder have every right to keep their score but if we revert to harder those who played on easier must be stripped

we know rounding happened. So rounding alone isnt cause for removal, but this is extra interesting, cause if minutes were replaced with hours, and the submitter was short changed, it seems like it might be easier than normal to get the submitter to back the dispute claims. voting yes. its not concl

Some history. Pre-2004 the scorebooard was mixed: NTSC, PAL and EMU mixed in together. Sometime in 2004, and discussed internally until taken public, was the notion of splitting the scoreboard. It became public knowledge in a thread at https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthread.php/116732-The-Great-
