@@JackCraft-tm9hj No. He was the right age at the time like anyone else in the film. He 'wanted', not wants now. This sounds like a problem you are having, not Walter.
@@SUNSHINELIVE1 Walter was talking about wanting the fame and girls to come up to him when he was playing in the 80s during the peak of arcade culture. He was born in 1949, Centipede came out in 1981... So yeah he was way too old to be in an arcade desiring the young girls who hung out in arcades. Also he is considerably older than the other people featured in the documentary, which I thought was obvious to anyone with a brain. Billy Mitchell for instance was born in 1965, so him being a teenager in the early 80s was okay when he also talks about the teenage arcade groupies. I do not appreciate your hostility and anti-social response, especially when you are just flat wrong.
"they were looking for personalities to sell a fictional story rather than the documented facts" King of Kong is no documentary. Steve was let in and profiteered from exploiting a subject matter he never achieved because of his connections to the film makers who bribed Walter and Billy to cover up Tims score and placement in the chronology of events. Steve never beat Billys 1982 arcade DK world record nor was BIlly the Twin Galaxies WR holder.
If this makes sense to you, then you have no clue what documentary actually is. Steve Webie was given his placement in the so-called documentary because he was palsy-walsy with the film makers and Walter Daze and Billy ScaMitchell were easily bribed to cover up Tim and whore out the scoreboard for the fraud documentary. I have consulted with a lawyer in the field of entertainment law and can share these insights: Claiming someone else’s achievement as your own in a documentary film could lead to legal consequences. Here are a few reasons why: Plagiarism: Presenting someone else’s work or achievement as your own without proper attribution is considered plagiarism. It violates intellectual property rights and ethical standards. Defamation: If the person whose achievement you claim can prove beyond any doubt the achievement was theirs and decides to take legal action, you would be guilty of defamation. Copyright Infringement: If the achievement involves copyrighted material (such as images, music, written or other documented content), using it without permission could lead to copyright infringement claims. Tim was documented beating Billys 1982 arcade world record long before Steve submitted his first performance and was also the Twin Galaxies record holder on the title when Steve entered, not BIlly ScaMItchell. Fraud: Intentionally covering up or deliberately misrepresenting facts in a documentary does in fact constitute fraudulent behavior even if the end result may be entertaining or not. If viewers rely on false information, it could harm their understanding of the subject matter. King of Kong is certainly guilty in this regard. Billy Mitchell and Steve Webie are bullshit conman who profited while knowingly cheating and defaming another in the process. Ever wonder why Dwayne or anyone else seen Dwaynes DOC were never sued? Billy ScaMitchell didn't dare.
I saw a comment on another Billy Mitchell expose that I can't get out of my head. It was something to the effect of "someone should do a mockumentary of King of Kong with Peter Dinklage as Billy Mitchell." Hahaha. I wish someone would make this happen.
hello im trying to contact Dwayne Richard because i am an italian ladybug player and im trying to collect all recorded scores of ladybug. I saw that he has the highest score on TG on video but i cant get the video from the TG website. Could anyone help me contact richard??
One Strange thing about the history of the Donkey Kong Score was both Robert and I never knew about Tim Sczerby's score at all which was really strange. I usually found out about every record when it was done. The first time I found out about Tim was when his name was listed on the king of kong data entry for Bill's score at funspot. Same for Robert.
The day is coming soon when Billy Mitchell will be paying the rent. I can assure you. Billy Mitchell owes about 17 years of rent and it will be collected even if it means doing it Rudy Ferretti style. I will 100% guarantee no lawyer, nor Billy's cult member simpletons will be able to help Billy when that rent collection day comes due.
I think what's silly about all this is that there is juat aimply no way to confirm nobody had a perfect Pacman prior to Bill or Billy or any of the others inbetween. These games weren't connected to the internet and reporting back to Namco or w/e what peoples' final scores were, the internet wasn't really a thing at all, and it's not like these sorts of feats were widely known and reported on mainstream TV like pro sports are. Who is to say some kid in Japan or California or anywhere Pacman arcades ended up didn't have the dedication and wherewithal to do it even faster? Bill Bastable was seemingly putting quarters into machines at convenience stores or bars or arcades or w/e to play, imagine someone who had access to play the game over an over again without having to pay, like they or their friend/family owned the arcade, and they spent all their free time on it? I think if anyone should gain recognition for being first it's Bill Bastable, he did it way before anyone else, but we should just keep in mind that these aren't definitive claims that anyone can prove.
I started learning about these issues through Karl’s videos and ordeal, with no prior knowledge of earlier events. As I delve deeper, the sheer extent and frequency of BM’s dishonesty is almost unbelievable, as if everything is untrue.

Is there a full version available anywhere? Either streaming or downloadable. Edit: NVM I found it up on Internet Archive by googling Dwayne Richard King of Con
While I can't say who played the first "perfect" Pacman game, I can say absolutely that it was NOT Billy Mitchell in 1999, because I personally saw a perfect game played in the mid-90's...
It doesn't matter what you say or witness. It matters if the achievement was documented and verified though proper channels. That's the whole point of "documentation" and "documentary" films. People can talk a lot of shit. Proving it and documenting it is another thing.
@@marymcmanus1877 Well, considering that Twin Galaxies as a whole has never been a "reliable" source, and is not even today, under the new ownership, it's valid to say that Billy has no "documentation" either; his scores were never "verified" by a true impartial judge.
King of Kong has to be the most misinformative documentary ever made as the viewer is never informed of who beat Billy's 1982 arcade Donkey Kong WR nor are they informed of who the actual Twin Galaxies record holder was on the title at the time. Both of these events are key elements and central to the King of Kong so-called "documentary". Seth Gordon and Ed Cuntingham not only committed a willful act of fraud and defamation towards Tim, but disgraced the documentary genre as well. What part of Steve Webies life ever involved beating Billy's 1982 DK WR? The answer is NO part of Steve life ever involved this achievement, yet Steve is awarded documentary credit and is paid life rights to the same? You will NEVER hear Steve Weepie address this issue in one of his so-called tell all interviews because he's been told to keep his mouth shut on the matter. Here with Dwayne's documentary, the viewer is given a factual account of historic record and report of the history by the actual people involved. By Definition Dwayne's DOC is far more of a real documentary than Seth Gordons scripted and fictional King of Kong fairy tale is. Notice how Dwayne was NEVER sued either.
Did I miss part of this documentary where they address all of that? I'd like to see evidence that Steve was in on all of this because the King of King documentary made it look like he was being pushed out, just like the Canadians in this documentary
@@andrewhoffman2812 For starters, the The King of Kong is NOT a documentary, but a fictional film based on another's stolen subject matter. Lets start with an explanation of what a documentary is as very few people, especially in the gaming community, have absolutely no clue including yourself as to what a documentary actually is. A documentary is a NON-fictional film that presents real-life events, people, or situations. Its primary purpose is to inform and educate the audience about a particular subject and NOT entertainment. Documentaries serve as a historical record. Documentary films deal with facts and reality, focusing on public matters rather than private ones Filmmakers DO NOT create events or characters; they aim to recreate reality using the actual people responsible for establishing the content they are exploring. In reality, Steve Webie never beat Billy Mitchells 1982 arcade world record that was central to the events depicted in the so-called "documentary" King of Kong, Tim Sczerby did. This is well documented, therefore the sub plot of Roy Shildt creeping around and giving Steve another PCB so Steve could beat Billy's long standing 1982 world record NEVER HAPPENED because Tim already beat Billy's 1982 world record score three years before Steve. Tim's arcade score was clearly listed as #1 on the Twin Galaxies score board for three years from 2000 thru 2003. There's no way Steve could have missed it. Steve sets out to beat a world record and has no idea of who's record he's trying to beat? What part of Steve Webies life ever involved beating Billy's 1982 arcade WR that he should be paid life rights to? The answer is NONE. Steve stole this achievement from Tim via his movie pals when they bribed Walter and Billy to cover up Tim's right full placement. Steve Weepie, Walter Daze and Billy ScaMItchell all knew about Tim prior to filming, but they covered up Tim with lies and slander so they could profit from knowingly selling a fraudulent documentary as fact. Next time Steve does a "tell all interview" ask him who Tim Sczerby is and see what he says. Steve will, under no circumstances, answer this question because his puppeteers Seth Gordon and Ed Cuntingham told Steve to never mention Tim, the theft of Tim's subject matter or the gross corruption involved in the making of the film.
@@marymcmanus1877 So Steve never did a live kill screen in front of a whole crowd? I'm not saying Steve Weibe is the all time best but the man clearly practiced and could do what a majority of people who have played the game couldn't. You seem weirdly upset about the whole thing. Here's a hot tip... You are a nobody and your attitude comes off as a whiney nerd who is riding the coattails of others accomplishments while slandering everyone else who has also accomplished something in the gaming industry. I'm sure these Canadians deserve more respect than they received but they could do their own documentary at any time and bang out live scores like Steve did and I would watch that. Instead I get a bunch of crying Canadians and some random clown in a comment section crying about what is fair. I'm not sure what your intentions are with your bizarre cry baby rant but if anything, I like Steve Weibe even more now that I see the impact he has on goons like you
@@andrewhoffman2812 "So Steve never did a live kill screen in front of a whole crowd?" The film was so heavily scripted and the very narrative it was based on was outright stolen, then altered to the point it was no longer true, why should you or any one else believe Steve's gameplay was for real? The King of Kong so-called "documentary" is as phony as three dollar bill with Billy Mitchell's picture on it and is a disgrace to the documentary genre'. Here's a hot tip for you! We are not talking about Steve Webie and what he allegedly scored in a heavily scripted fictional movie, we are talking about who beat Billy Mitchells 1982 arcade world record first and the fact Steve unjustly was awarded documentary credit for this achievement and was also a co-conspirator helping market a fraudulent documentary as fact.
@@marymcmanus1877 you just have a weird hatred towards Steve Weibe when he clearly went to a public place and beat Donkey Kong in front of a large group of people... I understand you're upset that the real people who beat Billy Mitchells score first weren't acknowledged. What I took from the King of Kong documentary was that Twin Galaxies and Billy Mitchell were frauds. Billy refusing to play in public in head to head competition but still acting like he had a leg to stand on. Twin Galaxies clearly screwed Steve Weibe when he submitted his score via tape and they are just as much to blame... I just don't understand the hate for Steve Weibe, if you think he faked a kill screen in an arcade in front of a large group of people, you might want to change your tin foil hat. As for the guys who didn't get credit, I would love to see a documentary of them going to an arcade and breaking high scores in front of a live audience. Not because I don't believe them but because it would make for great content. The King of Kong exposed twin Galaxies and Billy Mitchell but the hatred towards Steve Weibe, a guy who can clearly play the game and sacrificed time away from his family and job, is just bizarre. I don't think it's that serious. The guy just wanted to prove himself and I believe he did it by doing it live in front of a crowd of people.
Steve obviously had to look at the score board to see who's score he was trying to beat and Billy Mitchells original 1982 score was not listed as the #1 world record at the time, Tim's was. After some media fanfare about Tim's record and even a congratulatory call from Billy Mitchell himself, (Billy admits this in Dwayne's DOC) Tim's score stood as #1 for over 3 years. When Steve and his fraudster movie connections entered the scene with bribe money (movie contracts) Tim's world record suddenly became "constantly disputed and impossible to verify therefore merited no inclusion in the film". What a coincidence! There's your defamation and false light right there as Tim was able to produced a copy of this score proving the lie unlike Mitchell, but Mitchell somehow has a defamation and false light case for the same reasons? Please! Next time Steve Webie has a "tell all interview" ask him who Tim Sczerby is and see what he tells you. Guaranteed Steve will NOT answer this question. Billy Mitchell is a scam and so is Steve Webie. We have tried this and Steve absolutely will NOT even acknowledge Tim ever existed because like Billy Mitchell Steve is also a lying crooked bullshit conman who also like Mitchell profited from the calculated theft of Tim's stolen documentary subject material. Notice how Dwayne or another people feature in this DOC were NEVER sued by Mitchel. Why is that? Billy and Ed CunTingham have been working hard the last several years exploiting the lawsuits Billy has created as a means to generate content material for another "documentary" Don't worry, I'm sure your "hero" Steve Webie will also reprise his "good guy" role from the first rip-off documentary and like Mitchell, continue to profiteer from the same misery Billy Mitchell has inflicted on people as a result of his lawsuits. The idiot public will love it! Fucking couple of maggots Billy and Steve are. Where's Rudy Ferretti and his piece when you need him!
King of Kong ignored Tim Sczerby's record, which is a shame, but the movie is a lot more entertaining if it's just Billy vs Steve. Plus, when they started filming, Tim Sczerby had the 3rd place score. They weren't filming Steve when he got the record. They didn't start filming until right before Steve went to Funspot. Everything you see before that is just a re-inactment. They started filming after they heard that TG took Steve's scores down.
It doesn't matter what place Tim was in when filming actually started.Tim was in first place before Steve entered not Billy. Tim broke Billy's original record in 2000, not Steve. There is a chronological order to be followed when exploring any documented subject matter and its Steves placement in that chronology that does not fit. "Steve was just doing a reenactment"? A reenactment of what? Steve was certainly not reenacting himself beating Billy's original world record. Steve certainly cannot reenact an event he never achieved to begin with. Also, to say the fake Steve vs Billy narrative was more entertaining is just plain ignorant as no one knew anything about Tim's story to even make such a comparison to begin with. There are only so many creative liberties one can take before the word documentary becomes synonymous with the word bullshit. King of Kong is just such bullshit.
@@maryvernooy1330 See, your problem is that you think this movie was made because it wanted to be a historical account of Donkey Kong high scores. You don't understand how movies work. Tim Sczerby barely beat Billy's record then both Steve and Billy beat Tim's record immediately after that. No one cares about who has the third best record in Donkey Kong, and no one cares if Tim had the record for 10 minutes. Also, stick to one account, Dwayne. Stop making new ones. You're the only one promoting Tim Sczerby, so it's easy to know it's you.
@@somegamer7958 states "You think this movie (King of Kong documentary film) was made because it wanted to be a historic account of Donkey Kong high scores" My reply is yes, this is exactically, by definition, what a documentary film is supposed to be, a factual account of historic record or report. There is a major difference between a movie and documentary and it is you that does not understand. Does the tort Falselight mean anything to you? False light is an untrue or intentionally misleading portrayal and King of Kong is a prime example of Falselight. Do you know why disclaimers are placed at the end of movies such as "the events depicted in this motion picture are ficticious and have no relation to persons living or dead" ? Think about that one for a moment then consider King of Kong contains no such disclaimer. Also, it was initially and defamitorily stated that the reason for Tim's ommision was his score was disputed and never verified. This was proven to be an outright premeditated lie. Furthermore, why would the film makers state they made efforts to locate Tim prior to filming if they never intended to credit him to begin with? Can you explain this? Whether or not Tim barely beat Billy's initial world record is not the point. The point is Tim did infact beat Billy's original world record that was central to events depicted in the King of Kong documentary three years before Steve and in doing so, Tim secured his earned placement in the games chronological scoring history. Tim's score also stood as #1 for tree years, not 10 minutes as you so ignorantly stated. For Steve Wiebe to accept any promotional or financial compensation involved with falsely taking credit for anothers achievement just goes to show what little if any character or honor he really has and I disrespect him for that as anyone with any decency would.
@@maryvernooy1330 No. King of Kong is a MOVIE. All documentaries are movies. There hasn't been a completely factual documentary EVER made. Every single one of them has an agenda. Name and documentary throughout history and then google "how accurate is it" and you'll find that every single one of them has either lied about something or left something important out. Have you seen Making a Murderer? They don't tell you how the accused was sexually harassing the girl to a point where she had to call the cops on him. Have you seen the West Memphis 3 docs? They don't tell you how one of the guys was still confessing to the crimes when he was in jail and could even talk about crime scene details that you had to be there to know. The fact is that documentaries are made to be interesting - not factual. Anyone that knows anything about film knows this. Including Tim Sczerby doesn't add ANY entertainment value. It diminishes the Billy vs Steve narrative. If Tim wanted to be in the doc he should have been at Funspot.
@@somegamer7958 Your ignorance on the matter is staggering, so let me straighten you out again. Documentaries are non fiction films based on fact that are primarily for informative and educational purposes not entertainment. Movies are fictional films that often use creative liberties to craft a story. There is a huge difference between the two. King of Kong is marketed as a documentary film, not simply a movie. No, It is NOT a fact that documentaries are made to be interesting as their primary purpose is to educate and factually inform its viewing audience using preestablished subject matter and documented source material. Also, how can you say including Tim wouldn't add any entertainment value when nobody knew anything about Tims story to begin with? You have made a logical fallacy here. Furthermore, how would Tim know to go to Funspot when the filmmakers never notified Tim that the documentary was being made in the first place? As a person who established directly central to the events of such a documentary film ,Tim had a right as title holder to be notified, but never was. Let's just say Tim was at Funspot and beat Steve Weibe all night and all day, do you really think the film makers would have included footage of Tim wiping the arcade with their boy Steve? No, of course not. Tim blowing Steve Wiebes ass right off the arcade floor certainly would not have fit the film maker narrative now would it? Besides, If the film makers never intended to include Tim to begin with, why was It was stated by the film makers that they tried to locate Tim prior to filming but couldn't find him? Can you answer this one?
Pretty clear the reason they didn't work with Tim was because they already had an asshole in a more important role in the film. Unwatchable doc unfortunately.
No, It was initially stated by the film makers that Tim's score was "constantly disputed and impossible to verify and merited no inclusion in the film". This was a flat out lie and proven to be as such. It was also stated by the film makers that "Our Twin Galaxies assisted attempts to track Tim down led to one dead end after another". This was another lie to justify Tim's wrongful exclusion from the documentary subject material he initially established. Tim's unjust full exclusion was not, based on a perceived personality conflict as you so ignorantly implied. Besides, its not the film makers decision to decide who they will "work with" when depicting who did what and when concerning pre-established documented subject matter. Earning a placement in a documentary film is not like trying out for a part in a movie. The only thing "clear" is you have no idea what you are talking about and you are simply casting aspersions.
@@joemac999 I give a shit. This isn't just about the legitimacy of videogame scores. The financial remuneration paid to fraudsters like Weibe and Mitchell who literally stole other peoples achievements, claimed them as their own so as to profiteer, was that "just video game scores" too? Wise up.
Based on what? Every piece of evidence I have (suing Karl Jobst, what happened with Apollo Legend, falsely accusing and slandering my good friend Dwayne Richard) shows Bill to be one of the biggest pieces of SHIT on the planet. Other than Trump that is.
Billy is a bullshit conman that has cost a lot of people lost time and opportunity not to mention financial remuneration with his grifting scams. When I see a loaf of shit in a stagnate toilet , I think of Billy Mitchell.

Sections removed. Billy Mitchell copyright striked this video 3 times, I had to edit out sections.
Is there a full version available anywhere? Either streaming or downloadable.
Edit: NVM I found it up on Internet Archive by googling Dwayne Richard King of Con
I hope Dwayne is doing alright
While I can't say who played the first "perfect" Pacman game, I can say absolutely that it was NOT Billy Mitchell in 1999, because I personally saw a perfect game played in the mid-90's...
It doesn't matter what you say or witness. It matters if the achievement was documented and verified though proper channels. That's the whole point of "documentation" and "documentary" films. People can talk a lot of shit. Proving it and documenting it is another thing.
@@marymcmanus1877 Well, considering that Twin Galaxies as a whole has never been a "reliable" source, and is not even today, under the new ownership, it's valid to say that Billy has no "documentation" either; his scores were never "verified" by a true impartial judge.
King of Kong has to be the most misinformative documentary ever made as the viewer is never informed of who beat Billy's 1982 arcade Donkey Kong WR nor are they informed of who the actual Twin Galaxies record holder was on the title at the time. Both of these events are key elements and central to the King of Kong so-called "documentary".
Seth Gordon and Ed Cuntingham not only committed a willful act of fraud and defamation towards Tim, but disgraced the documentary genre as well.
What part of Steve Webies life ever involved beating Billy's 1982 DK WR? The answer is NO part of Steve life ever involved this achievement, yet Steve is awarded documentary credit and is paid life rights to the same?
You will NEVER hear Steve Weepie address this issue in one of his so-called tell all interviews because he's been told to keep his mouth shut on the matter.
Here with Dwayne's documentary, the viewer is given a factual account of historic record and report of the history by the actual people involved. By Definition Dwayne's DOC is far more of a real documentary than Seth Gordons scripted and fictional King of Kong fairy tale is. Notice how Dwayne was NEVER sued either.
Did I miss part of this documentary where they address all of that? I'd like to see evidence that Steve was in on all of this because the King of King documentary made it look like he was being pushed out, just like the Canadians in this documentary
@@andrewhoffman2812
For starters, the The King of Kong is NOT a documentary, but a fictional film based on another's stolen subject matter.
Lets start with an explanation of what a documentary is as very few people, especially in the gaming community, have absolutely no clue including yourself as to what a documentary actually is.
A documentary is a NON-fictional film that presents real-life events, people, or situations.
Its primary purpose is to inform and educate the audience about a particular subject and NOT entertainment.
Documentaries serve as a historical record.
Documentary films deal with facts and reality, focusing on public matters rather than private ones
Filmmakers DO NOT create events or characters; they aim to recreate reality using the actual people responsible for establishing the content they are exploring.
In reality, Steve Webie never beat Billy Mitchells 1982 arcade world record that was central to the events depicted in the so-called "documentary" King of Kong, Tim Sczerby did. This is well documented, therefore the sub plot of Roy Shildt creeping around and giving Steve another PCB so Steve could beat Billy's long standing 1982 world record NEVER HAPPENED because Tim already beat Billy's 1982 world record score three years before Steve.
Tim's arcade score was clearly listed as #1 on the Twin Galaxies score board for three years from 2000 thru 2003. There's no way Steve could have missed it.
Steve sets out to beat a world record and has no idea of who's record he's trying to beat?
What part of Steve Webies life ever involved beating Billy's 1982 arcade WR that he should be paid life rights to?
The answer is NONE. Steve stole this achievement from Tim via his movie pals when they bribed Walter and Billy to cover up Tim's right full placement.
Steve Weepie, Walter Daze and Billy ScaMItchell all knew about Tim prior to filming, but they covered up Tim with lies and slander so they could profit from knowingly selling a fraudulent documentary as fact.
Next time Steve does a "tell all interview" ask him who Tim Sczerby is and see what he says. Steve will, under no circumstances, answer this question because his puppeteers Seth Gordon and Ed Cuntingham told Steve to never mention Tim, the theft of Tim's subject matter or the gross corruption involved in the making of the film.
@@marymcmanus1877 So Steve never did a live kill screen in front of a whole crowd? I'm not saying Steve Weibe is the all time best but the man clearly practiced and could do what a majority of people who have played the game couldn't. You seem weirdly upset about the whole thing. Here's a hot tip... You are a nobody and your attitude comes off as a whiney nerd who is riding the coattails of others accomplishments while slandering everyone else who has also accomplished something in the gaming industry.
I'm sure these Canadians deserve more respect than they received but they could do their own documentary at any time and bang out live scores like Steve did and I would watch that. Instead I get a bunch of crying Canadians and some random clown in a comment section crying about what is fair. I'm not sure what your intentions are with your bizarre cry baby rant but if anything, I like Steve Weibe even more now that I see the impact he has on goons like you
@@andrewhoffman2812 "So Steve never did a live kill screen in front of a whole crowd?"
The film was so heavily scripted and the very narrative it was based on was outright stolen, then altered to the point it was no longer true, why should you or any one else believe Steve's gameplay was for real? The King of Kong so-called "documentary" is as phony as three dollar bill with Billy Mitchell's picture on it and is a disgrace to the documentary genre'.
Here's a hot tip for you! We are not talking about Steve Webie and what he allegedly scored in a heavily scripted fictional movie, we are talking about who beat Billy Mitchells 1982 arcade world record first and the fact Steve unjustly was awarded documentary credit for this achievement and was also a co-conspirator helping market a fraudulent documentary as fact.
@@marymcmanus1877 you just have a weird hatred towards Steve Weibe when he clearly went to a public place and beat Donkey Kong in front of a large group of people... I understand you're upset that the real people who beat Billy Mitchells score first weren't acknowledged. What I took from the King of Kong documentary was that Twin Galaxies and Billy Mitchell were frauds. Billy refusing to play in public in head to head competition but still acting like he had a leg to stand on.
Twin Galaxies clearly screwed Steve Weibe when he submitted his score via tape and they are just as much to blame...
I just don't understand the hate for Steve Weibe, if you think he faked a kill screen in an arcade in front of a large group of people, you might want to change your tin foil hat.
As for the guys who didn't get credit, I would love to see a documentary of them going to an arcade and breaking high scores in front of a live audience. Not because I don't believe them but because it would make for great content.
The King of Kong exposed twin Galaxies and Billy Mitchell but the hatred towards Steve Weibe, a guy who can clearly play the game and sacrificed time away from his family and job, is just bizarre. I don't think it's that serious. The guy just wanted to prove himself and I believe he did it by doing it live in front of a crowd of people.
You really think Steve was in on Billy and Walters ruse? I don't know he could be but that just doesn't make sense to me.
Steve obviously had to look at the score board to see who's score he was trying to beat and Billy Mitchells original 1982 score was not listed as the #1 world record at the time, Tim's was.
After some media fanfare about Tim's record and even a congratulatory call from Billy Mitchell himself, (Billy admits this in Dwayne's DOC) Tim's score stood as #1 for over 3 years.
When Steve and his fraudster movie connections entered the scene with bribe money (movie contracts) Tim's world record suddenly became "constantly disputed and impossible to verify therefore merited no inclusion in the film".
What a coincidence!
There's your defamation and false light right there as Tim was able to produced a copy of this score proving the lie unlike Mitchell, but Mitchell somehow has a defamation and false light case for the same reasons? Please!
Next time Steve Webie has a "tell all interview" ask him who Tim Sczerby is and see what he tells you. Guaranteed Steve will NOT answer this question. Billy Mitchell is a scam and so is Steve Webie. We have tried this and Steve absolutely will NOT even acknowledge Tim ever existed because like Billy Mitchell Steve is also a lying crooked bullshit conman who also like Mitchell profited from the calculated theft of Tim's stolen documentary subject material.
Notice how Dwayne or another people feature in this DOC were NEVER sued by Mitchel. Why is that?
Billy and Ed CunTingham have been working hard the last several years exploiting the lawsuits Billy has created as a means to generate content material for another "documentary"
Don't worry, I'm sure your "hero" Steve Webie will also reprise his "good guy" role from the first rip-off documentary and like Mitchell, continue to profiteer from the same misery Billy Mitchell has inflicted on people as a result of his lawsuits. The idiot public will love it! Fucking couple of maggots Billy and Steve are. Where's Rudy Ferretti and his piece when you need him!
King of Kong ignored Tim Sczerby's record, which is a shame, but the movie is a lot more entertaining if it's just Billy vs Steve. Plus, when they started filming, Tim Sczerby had the 3rd place score. They weren't filming Steve when he got the record. They didn't start filming until right before Steve went to Funspot. Everything you see before that is just a re-inactment. They started filming after they heard that TG took Steve's scores down.
It doesn't matter what place Tim was in when filming actually started.Tim was in first place before Steve entered not Billy. Tim broke Billy's original record in 2000, not Steve. There is a chronological order to be followed when exploring any documented subject matter and its Steves placement in that chronology that does not fit.
"Steve was just doing a reenactment"? A reenactment of what? Steve was certainly not reenacting himself beating Billy's original world record. Steve certainly cannot reenact an event he never achieved to begin with.
Also, to say the fake Steve vs Billy narrative was more entertaining is just plain ignorant as no one knew anything about Tim's story to even make such a comparison to begin with.
There are only so many creative liberties one can take before the word documentary becomes synonymous with the word bullshit. King of Kong is just such bullshit.
@@maryvernooy1330 See, your problem is that you think this movie was made because it wanted to be a historical account of Donkey Kong high scores. You don't understand how movies work.
Tim Sczerby barely beat Billy's record then both Steve and Billy beat Tim's record immediately after that. No one cares about who has the third best record in Donkey Kong, and no one cares if Tim had the record for 10 minutes.
Also, stick to one account, Dwayne. Stop making new ones. You're the only one promoting Tim Sczerby, so it's easy to know it's you.
@@somegamer7958 states "You think this movie (King of Kong documentary film) was made because it wanted to be a historic account of Donkey Kong high scores"
My reply is yes, this is exactically, by definition, what a documentary film is supposed to be, a factual account of historic record or report. There is a major difference between a movie and documentary and it is you that does not understand.
Does the tort Falselight mean anything to you? False light is an untrue or intentionally misleading portrayal and King of Kong is a prime example of Falselight.
Do you know why disclaimers are placed at the end of movies such as "the events depicted in this motion picture are ficticious and have no relation to persons living or dead" ? Think about that one for a moment then consider King of Kong contains no such disclaimer.
Also, it was initially and defamitorily stated that the reason for Tim's ommision was his score was disputed and never verified. This was proven to be an outright premeditated lie.
Furthermore, why would the film makers state they made efforts to locate Tim prior to filming if they never intended to credit him to begin with? Can you explain this? Whether or not Tim barely beat Billy's initial world record is not the point. The point is Tim did infact beat Billy's original world record that was central to events depicted in the King of Kong documentary three years before Steve and in doing so, Tim secured his earned placement in the games chronological scoring history. Tim's score also stood as #1 for tree years, not 10 minutes as you so ignorantly stated.
For Steve Wiebe to accept any promotional or financial compensation involved with falsely taking credit for anothers achievement just goes to show what little if any character or honor he really has and I disrespect him for that as anyone with any decency would.
@@maryvernooy1330 No. King of Kong is a MOVIE. All documentaries are movies. There hasn't been a completely factual documentary EVER made. Every single one of them has an agenda. Name and documentary throughout history and then google "how accurate is it" and you'll find that every single one of them has either lied about something or left something important out.
Have you seen Making a Murderer? They don't tell you how the accused was sexually harassing the girl to a point where she had to call the cops on him.
Have you seen the West Memphis 3 docs? They don't tell you how one of the guys was still confessing to the crimes when he was in jail and could even talk about crime scene details that you had to be there to know.
The fact is that documentaries are made to be interesting - not factual. Anyone that knows anything about film knows this. Including Tim Sczerby doesn't add ANY entertainment value. It diminishes the Billy vs Steve narrative. If Tim wanted to be in the doc he should have been at Funspot.
@@somegamer7958 Your ignorance on the matter is staggering, so let me straighten you out again.
Documentaries are non fiction films based on fact that are primarily for informative and educational purposes not entertainment.
Movies are fictional films that often use creative liberties to craft a story. There is a huge difference between the two. King of Kong is marketed as a documentary film, not simply a movie.
No, It is NOT a fact that documentaries are made to be interesting as their primary purpose is to educate and factually inform its viewing audience using preestablished subject matter and documented source material.
Also, how can you say including Tim wouldn't add any entertainment value when nobody knew anything about Tims story to begin with? You have made a logical fallacy here.
Furthermore, how would Tim know to go to Funspot when the filmmakers never notified Tim that the documentary was being made in the first place? As a person who established directly central to the events of such a documentary film ,Tim had a right as title holder to be notified, but never was.
Let's just say Tim was at Funspot and beat Steve Weibe all night and all day, do you really think the film makers would have included footage of Tim wiping the arcade with their boy Steve? No, of course not. Tim blowing Steve Wiebes ass right off the arcade floor certainly would not have fit the film maker narrative now would it?
Besides, If the film makers never intended to include Tim to begin with, why was It was stated by the film makers that they tried to locate Tim prior to filming but couldn't find him? Can you answer this one?
Namco USA called him lol ..
fun watch.
Bunch of Canadian mumbling on VHS tape.
Pretty clear the reason they didn't work with Tim was because they already had an asshole in a more important role in the film. Unwatchable doc unfortunately.
No, It was initially stated by the film makers that Tim's score was "constantly disputed and impossible to verify and merited no inclusion in the film". This was a flat out lie and proven to be as such. It was also stated by the film makers that "Our Twin Galaxies assisted attempts to track Tim down led to one dead end after another". This was another lie to justify Tim's wrongful exclusion from the documentary subject material he initially established. Tim's unjust full exclusion was not, based on a perceived personality conflict as you so ignorantly implied.
Besides, its not the film makers decision to decide who they will "work with" when depicting who did what and when concerning pre-established documented subject matter. Earning a placement in a documentary film is not like trying out for a part in a movie.
The only thing "clear" is you have no idea what you are talking about and you are simply casting aspersions.

Basically, yes.
@@TheArea51Rider What makes you say that? I see people setting the record straight. There's more to a documentary film than just entertainment.
@@maryvernooy1330 You care about the legitimacy of a pac man score WAY too much. And if multiple people have reached the score, who gives a shit?
@@joemac999 I give a shit. This isn't just about the legitimacy of videogame scores. The financial remuneration paid to fraudsters like Weibe and Mitchell who literally stole other peoples achievements, claimed them as their own so as to profiteer, was that "just video game scores" too? Wise up.
@@maryvernooy1330weirdo
I still like Billy. When I think of gaming I think of him.
He is a good man.
Based on what? Every piece of evidence I have (suing Karl Jobst, what happened with Apollo Legend, falsely accusing and slandering my good friend Dwayne Richard) shows Bill to be one of the biggest pieces of SHIT on the planet. Other than Trump that is.
Feel free to try and sue ME Bill. I am in Canada. Good luck with that. Frivolous lawsuits don't happen up here. Go fuck yourself.
Billy is a bullshit conman that has cost a lot of people lost time and opportunity not to mention financial remuneration with his grifting scams. When I see a loaf of shit in a stagnate toilet , I think of Billy Mitchell.
@@TheArea51Rider you don’t like trump? Trump is the man. I am tired of my tax dollars going to other countries.
Mr. Activision is another good man too. Idk every sport and every category needs its role model. For me Billy is a symbol for competitive gaming. The original founder.
