I don'[t doubt anything you've listed Ginsu, but when you say that Billy ate with everyone, did that include Wiebe?  The movie showed Wiebe and another guy sitting in a booth.  I believe it was either shown or implied that the others were sharing the large table at the same time.

The movie also showed Sanders talking to Billy on the phone when Wiebe walked in 'uninvited'(?)

I understand editing, but, he always looked a little wangy.  I previously saw the QBert thing and thought that was fantastic of him.  When I watched the movie and saw him ask her to bring the 'bounty tape', that act of kindness felt a little more contrived.

So, did Billy ever talk to Wiebe during any of these events, etc.?  The film made it look like he avoided him the entire time.

No need for a video...the title would get your point across.

From what I saw, and I know that it's not cut and dry, but Steve Sanders was tight with Billy.  Sanders was the one contacting Billy from the restaurant, Sanders was was feeding Wiebe's scores over the phone.  When Sanders was on the phone with Billy from the restaurant Sanders said that Steve and Mark "unexpectedly, and apparantly...I don't know how it happened..just this moment, Mark Alpiger and Steve Wiebe just walked in the door.  They did not come with us.  They just now came in by themselves."  Sanders then removed his mic and went out back to wait for Billy.  There's no reason he couldn't wait inside with everyone else.  Then, outside he replies to the cameraman (presumably) saying that Mark & Steve showed up unexpectedly and uninvitedly - hard to keep them away - and Bill just doesn't want anything to do with ('it' or 'him').

From the relationship that Billy and Sanders seem to have, I have no reason to believe that Wiebe was not invited and not welcomed.  I read that Mark Alpiger knew that everyone was going to the restaurant, but that doesn't mean that anyone mentioned it to Wiebe.

I know I'm late to the King Of Kong debate, and I really don't care one way or the other.  To me, Billy looks like a wang.
