THE REAL KING OF KONG
CheffoJeffo:
First off -- welcome!
And thanks for reminding me to watch Chasing Ghosts and King Of Kong again so that I can be reminded just how ---smurfing--- pathetic things can get when a high score is your barometer for sucess.
I absolutely suck at virtually every game that I love and will never achieve a high score in any competition worthy of mention.
But I totally ---smurfing--- adore the games.
Wishing you could do the same,
Cheffo

I just saw he referenced Todd Rogers as a "GREAT" gamer, and to that I say :laugh2:

Don't you have, like, a well-raised child or a strong marriage you can point to as a measure of your success in life? Your self-worth isn't really all tied up in this, right?
:dizzy:

even being a purveyor of fine rubber and latex products would be worth more
shmokes:
To be fair all these get-over-it comments are probably built on a foundation of disbelief. I think every one of you fully sympathized with Steve Weibe when you saw King of Kong (unless you already knew the "real" story, of course).
If this guy really did beat the record and Twin Galaxies really did suppress the tape for political reasons (i.e., Billy Mitchell is a major player in TG administration) that's something that anyone here should be concerned about, or it is at least worthy of passing sympathy.
The reality is that any one of us would derive a great deal of pride from holding the world record on something like Donkey Kong or Pac Man. I don't care if you are ultra-successful in other areas of your life or not. And having official recognition of such an accomplishment denied because the people administering Twin Galaxies are corrupt would sting any one of us.
So if you don't believe him, fine. Call him out. But call it like it is. If you actually believe him there's no reason to act like an ---uvula---.
