Billy Mitchell's attorney has contacted Twin Galaxies demanding they retract their previous statements and reinstate his records to their website. They have 14 days to do before legal action will be taken.
Read Jace's post outlining action being taken https://www.twingalaxies.com/showthread.php/176004-Dispute-Jeremy-Young-Arcade-Donkey-Kong-Points-Hammer-Allowed-Player-Billy-L-Mitchell-Score-1-062-800/page326
Demand letter can be viewed https://drive.google.com/file/d/1sAW-RRD0-qdg_TcKZHk9Aaoj5bGovz14/view
Mitchell's team has created a document outlining his evidence that Twin Galaxies' behaviour constitutes libel. Also contains counter evidence that attempts to discount TG's original findings. Read https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BMbW-_fSwCFQ1Kzl59pj7TnoQiuAdgcJ/view
Mitchell is also taking action against Guinness in the same manner, demanding they reinstate his records and retract previous statements.

The funniest parts are

Gotta love that games are being played so much that people are figuring out things like this. All those ALTTP runs that were spliced because we found out the fireball order was based on an earlier boss fight.

I thought it was proven without a doubt he used an emulator. Like the experts showed the way the screen loaded the score could have been only been done on one.

Turns out the tapes were probably faked. We will have more real evidence at the trial but it looks like right now that Billy is in the right.

He Livestreamed himself tieing the score it was accused he cheated to get. It was also revealed that the original tapes held by twin galaxies were lost/destroyed so no one has them. The tapes we saw came from a guy running a website called fuckbillymitchell.com

Oh wow. Why didn't he say that when the news of him cheating first came out. That would have changed the narrative the moment people started to turn on Billy.

I kinda agreed with Mr. Awesome and Billy was suspicious setting the high score in private and not telling anyone when it was going to happen so they can come see him do it live.
