Trying to watch that is painful. Did anyone sit through it? Did he touch on the MAME scandal?
He starts of by avoiding the subject and talks about how his 1982 score was witnessed by time magazine.
Later in the interview (1:06:40) he brings up MAME, he says has never played MAME and doesn't have it loaded on his computer at home. He doesn't dispute the analysis, but says that it wasn't the original tape. Then says he gave the original tape to twin galaxies and if they've lost it then it's a big problem. He then goes on to say that he doesn't think they lost the tape, but that twin galaxies is going through a growth spurt.
He appears to be confused about what tape is being discussed though as the one that was analysed was supposed to be a direct recording from the output of the arcade game that he recorded at home but then sent to TG to show at an event. Yet he claims that when twin galaxies gets round to checking the original, they will see pete bouvier(?) on the tape because it was recorded live at an event.
Billy looks uncomfortable when Richie Knucklez phones in, as if he doesn't know what might be said, but then Richie said he believes what Billy says as they are best friends. What followed was a pre-arranged conversation about how someone else was going to submit a fake tape to TG to discredit them & that it was the person who provided the tapes for the analysis.
Nobody is saying that Billy always cheated, only that they have evidence of one time that he cheated. However his defence is offering proof of single events where he didn't cheat & not addressing the one time that he is accused of.
It looks like he's constructing a defence from various unrelated events and is in denial.
Or alternatively Billy is telling the truth and it''s a conspiracy by the LLC.
