>>9105 I'm not OP, just giving another reason to dislike Jobst.
To be real for a second though, Billy Mitchell really is the reason Apollo Legend killed himself and anyone who thinks otherwise is a willful retard.

>>9073 lmao
>>9108 And Karl will probably kill himself when he loses the appeal case
>eceleb drama Having watched the video, it's about as good of a defense as he can make to his audience. The original lawsuit was stupid, and he explains why things went down the way they did as well as he can, but boy was his behavior dumb as fuck regardless. I wouldn't be surprised if Jobst simply pissed off the judge by constantly shittalking Billy online during a defamation case.
>>9115 Anon, please, my penis can only get so erect
>>9119 This. Billy is a bastard, but Karl acted retarded throughout. It's a true tragedy.
>>9073 glad 4/v/ is down, tards wouldve been spamming this shit for days. good riddance though. when the king of kong turns, you better hope not to get hit by his massive dong
>>9073 Billy can't stop winning.
>>9130 Actually baffling that he made video after video for years talking about an active lawsuit, one he should have won. >>9148 >good riddance though Personally I hope he finally shuts up about this shit and goes back to speedrunning videos, I hated how his channel turned into "listen to mebitch about Billy Mitchell and The Completionist".
>>9073 KWABOTY
>>9152 >I hated how his channel turned into "listen to mebitch about Billy Mitchell and The Completionist" This guy was a retarded dramafag for years. Making videos to farm IRL drama is the natural progression of exposing cheaters in speedrunning. It's no coincidence he started associating with other dramatards like Critikal and SomeOrdinaryGamers.
TRUMP WON CHUDDIES WON BILLY WON HIGHSCORERS WON CUMALLAH LOST LEFTIES LOST KARL JOBBER JOBBED SPEEDTRANNIES LOST
>>9157 The thing that made those videos interesting was never even the drama, it was the way people cheated and how they were found out. Diving deep into the mechanics to explain how a run couldn't have been possible, like the one where a Minecraft cheater was caught because the clouds were wrong. It's the similar formula to those plane crash investigation shows. IRL drama is high school shit or lolsuits, neither are interesting.
>>9152 I just started watching other dudes, Karl wasted his channel
>>9160 The vast majority of people watching weren't interested in that, they just cared about people getting BTFO. There's tons of other channels that cover the technical aspect of cheating way better that Karl directly worked with to produce his own videos. Karl was always a sensationalist faggot.
JUST FUCKING LOL
>>9161 >Karl wasted his channel He had a great thing going and he decided to go dramafag for no reason. He still does speedrunning videos, but look at how many of his videos in the last year are drama. It's around a third, including periods where he'd do several in a row. >>9167 >foxdicks don't care
>>9073 death to influencers
I bought billy’s sauce it’s pretty good actually.
>>9073 1.5 million in debt and i'm keking he's filing for an appeal and i can't stop keking his wife will leave him and i can't stop keking what else can i do karl has jobst right through
>>9108 It was basically self inflicted. Like why even give a shit if Billy cheated at Donkey Kong 40 years ago? >>9119 The entire modern speedrunning community is either autistic or gay or some combination. They can't contain themselves.
He just doesn't get it.
>loses biggly >every "argument" in his video was already refuted by the judges verdict >I am looking for an appeal He deserves to end up in eternal servitude to the King simply for his incredible stupidity.
What kind of idiot makes videos attacking your legal opponent in the middle of a fucking lawsuit? This is astonishingly retarded behavior. Josbt deserved to lose for that fact alone. I hope he loses his home and his wife files for divorce (no idea if they have kids, but I hope they do because then Karl will have to pay child support for the rest of his life)
>>9228 He already sold his house during the law suit. And iirc even is she divorces him now, Billy has first claim on any money Karl makes from now on to pay off his debts before alimony would kick in.
Does anyone else still feel like he’s blaming billy for apollo death?
>>9228 >no idea if they have kids It's so much worse than you can imagine. He has a hapa son named MAXIMUS WONG. Yes, he seriously let his son have his wife's surname because he has daddy issues.
>>9235 >maximus wong I refuse to believe this

Just watched the whole thing. It's just a recap of all the events that led to the lawsuit and what happened after with some cope comments mixed in about how he dindu nuffin, but even in his biased overview it's pretty clear that he fucked up badly and his reaction to his mistake in his claims regarding Apollo's lawsuit were pretty terrible: >first thing is describing the statement he made that started this whole thing, where he said that Apollo's debts from his lawsuit against Billy played into his motives for his suicide. His cope is that he said his health issues are what played a factor in his death, but it's pretty clear from the video transcript: Karl said that his ongoing health issues AND the costs from Billy's lawsuit are what caused him to kill himself. Either way he's saying that Billy played a part in his death in adding to his debts, which ended up being completely false as Apollo did not have to pay anything in the settlement. >second thing is about his removal of that statement and his official retraction of it later on. This one's not much different from what people know: he removed the statement about Apollo's suicide once he realized he fucked up, and then hid his retraction at the end of some random unrelated vid, claiming he did so because he "wanted it to reach as many people as possible by attaching it to a popular video". I think it's pretty clear why most people, including the judge, think this was not enough. It didn't change the situation at all. >next is regarding the belief that most people had regarding the lawsuit, thinking it was about cheating when it was not. I will give Karl that having a bunch of articles come out that blatanly lie and say that your lawsuit is about cheating when it was not did not help at all, but this is also partially his fault in his refusal to explicitly claim in any vid that the defamation lawsuit was about a claim you made regarding Apollo's suicide, and his refusal to shut the fuck up about Billy and make a vid about literally anything else besides his cheating allegations. It's pretty clear why someone would think that's what the lawsuit was about because of that. >then he goes on to explain why his GoFundMe was made, saying that Billy had been preparing to sue him 2 additional times, and this time they ACTUALLY were about cheating allegations, which is the actual reason why he made that GoFundMe in the first place. Neither of them actually ended up escalating to a proper lawsuit, but it doesn't change the one detail that he continues to neglect... which is that he used funding that was given under the assumption it'd be used to defend him against a cheating lawsuit, only to be spent on a completely different case. It's frankly still a scam, just that the reason for it is different than what most people believe. All in all, it ain't a good look. Not surprising why the vid has a 25% dislike rate, there's really no way for him to spin the narrative in his favor. He still fucked up with his claim about Apollo and still scammed his audience, whether he did so willingly or not.
>>9073 His source was redditors Wow leftists are so smart Keep sucking that tranny dick karl
All I see is that he had a corrupt inept judge and that is why he lost That other guy killed himself did it because of the cheater
What I got from this is that Karl is not really a bad guy, he's just a giant fucking loser like Billy is. Except Billy has more money lmao. I hope this is the nail in the coffin for the speedrunning and highscore community overall tbh, all the loudest voices in it are insane egotistical manchildren. >>9283 Eh most babies are kinda ugly.

Then he got utterly BTFO and now he has to spend 2 weeks running his damage control video by his lawyers because he plans to appeal (he will lose). Also, he might as well get a head start on the massive debt he owes to the KING.
>>9073 Who am i supposed to be rooting for? i never paid attention to the Billy Mitchell thing. Was he really a cheater or not?
>>10767 He absolutely was a cheater. But. The speedrunners who tried to ruin him over it, Apollo Legend and Karl Jobst, went too far with their delusions about how punishable cheating in a video game should be. Apollo Legend spoke of him as the antichrist until he got sued by Billy and lost. When he lost, Karl's friend group immediately backstabbed him and harassed him. When Apollo ACKed, he even listed Karl's friend group in his suicide note for giving him 'The push he needed' to do it. Now, Karl did basically the same thing as Apollo except he did something extra stupid: He blamed Apollo ACKing on Billy despite the fact his note said the exact opposite. This all boils down to people who have lived their lives for getting the fastest time in a video game not realizing that cheating at speedrunning isn't a federal or even civil offense. But trying to ruin someone over it is absolutely a civil offense. In short, the tl;dr for speedrunning drama is always: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b56N17d4WnM&t=30s
>>10767 He played on MAME instead of the original arcade hardware so he's a cheater according to trannies and groomers.
WOW THATS SO COOL~
>>10795 I mean MAME does actually have all sorts of tools that be built into specific builds to cheat. I'd maybe root for Jobst as a fellow aussie, but since he lost he also made Australia look like a disgrace. It's poor form and we may need to banish him and ship him off now for losing. And if Jobst is to believed here that Billy had such a shit case against him, it's because he got bad legal advice about how to structure his case and the judge overlooked everything simply due to bad conduct.

>>10767 >>10782 Billy probably may have allegedly cheated. The issue clouded. He's clearly capable of Donging the Kong at top level but his official runs weren't vetted properly, or something. There's no way to actually prove he did, unlike say the Dragster guy who claimed times that were impossible on a vanilla cartridge on vanilla hardware, short of a magic neutrino or some shit.
>>9483 > Your case can't get any more fucked than what it already is. I heard if he gets unlikely he could end up paying more if billy or the court wanted him to if the appeal goes to shit
>>10850 The problem is that Karl is a fucktard. He went after a guy that has a big ego and is notoriously sue happy for something that's largely meaningless and no one cares that deeply about except other speedrunning autists. And I could say the same things about Apollo before him.
(102.42 KB 1179x1066 1743574162008.jpg)

>>10767 Here, let me tell you what to think (WARNING: HIGH EFFORT POST): Billy leans too hard into being a heel and is a butthurt litigious jackass. He very likely did the things he was accused of for cheating. But cheating a video game high score decades ago is not that big of a deal, and no one would really care if there wasn't an entire movie where he was established a reputation as a villain. A movie that probably motivated the dedicated cadre of e-celebs (including Karl) to collaborate to boost their YouTube channels by exposing old video game high score boomers like him and his friends. He also has an actual life outside of video games running a restaurant and hot sauce brand that doesn't depend on milking e-drama. Karl is an unlikeable faggot who is a borderline lolcow himself. He has a history of being a PUA and years of forum and Discord posts where he comes off as an ABSOLUTE RETARD. Settled for an Asian wife and made his son's life a living hell by giving him a retarded name and making sure everyone knows his dad is a dumbass who publicly tempted fate and is now hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. Has a career centered around a YouTube channel where he EXPOSES video game cheaters in a smarmy way and is one step removed from a full blown drama slop channel in the vein of Asmongold or Crit1kal. It sounds like I'm just shitting on Karl compared to Billy, but understanding his and Billy's character is essential to why each party in the suit acted the way they did. Billy is a dickhead and regularly files SLAPP suits against people who slight him in the most minimal way, but in this case he was completely correct. Billy's lawsuit was never about suing over claims of cheating, it was always solely about Karl's claim that he contributed to Apollo Legend's suicide by filing a lawsuit against him. Despite being a thin skinned bitch, Billy has years of legal experience by this point and learned from his previous failures by acting professionally in and out of court. He never discussed details about the case publicly or took potshots against Karl during litigation. He concisely articulated how Karl consistently made the false claim that he caused Apollo Legend's suicide and used Karl's own videos as evidence of the harm to his reputation. Billy's lawyer was also a Queen's Counsel, which is a fancy title meaning they were hot shit and a respected senior lawyer. On the opposite end, Karl constantly made videos while the case was still active, where he claimed he had a guaranteed win. Karl spent almost 4 years misrepresenting the case as centered around cheating and leveraged this to beg for money to help fund his second lawyer. Despite being in active litigation for a DEFAMATION, he continued to make videos insulting Billy without even running them by a lawyer because, "fuck letting other people tell you what to do." These same videos ended up influencing the judge's sentencing to award even more money to Billy. He got Notch, the creator of Minecraft, to completely fund his first lawyer, but fired him when he was told that he wouldn't win and should settle. He then paid for a yes man lawyer who never tard wrangled him and intentionally overcharged him for legal fees, which was even called out specifically by the judge. He did this because he thought he had a surefire win and that Billy would pay for all of it. His defense was a shitshow centered around the cheating, meaning he didn't understand what the case was even about. He even used a completely unserious video of Crit1kal farting as evidence in court. Billy is a dick but Karl is such a humongous faggot that I can't fathom why anyone would side with him or disagree with the court's ruling.
>>10905 What the fuck, that's not real. No way, no how. God what a mess.
>>10577 It can in Australia. If the judge in the appeal thinks the fine was actually too low he can just bump it up.
>>9073 At this rate the appeals judge would be demanding Billy and his wife to serve as slaves to Billy Mitchell as payment.
>>10905 >fuck letting other people tell you what to do chad mindset
>>10984 It's real. Heck, I'll even counter some of the points he makes in his damage control video: >I didn't accuse Billy of causing Apollo Legend's death, I just said a bunch of sequential events with no causal conjunctions like "because" between them Retarded semantics, everyone knew what he was trying to imply, he's not a fucking mafia don. >I issued a retraction about the claim that Apollo's settlement involved payment hidden at the end of a completely unrelated 30 minute video, this is acceptable cause most people saw it He should know from his own analytics that a significant fraction of people don't watch to the end of the video and there is no indication from the topic of the video (about a fucking Souls series no-hit run) to the description that it would contain such a statement. >I didn't lie about what the case was about, the media did, I just didn't correct them because it could have hurt the case and I assumed everyone watched my videos and didn't want to repeat myself He publicly expressed that he doesn't give a shit if he puts out a video without lawyer approval, regardless of if it contains something that might harm the case. He said he got confused because he got multiple notices for defamation. So why wouldn't you correct the media and your fans on what the case was about when it was clear that the only defamation case moving to trial would be the one based on the suicide claim? Following legal cases is already long and confusing enough and this dragged on for almost 4 years. Of course people were going to forget and new people following the case wouldn't have any context. >The judge was unfair because he took Billy's word at face value He didn't do it at face value, there are pages of court documents that analyze specific videos and quotes. He sided with Billy over Karl because the judge correctly assessed his character as "self-aggrandizing" and stubborn and his attitude towards Billy as malicious. >The GoFundMe wasn't a scam, I actually did use it on legal fees even if they weren't what were in the description Notice that he doesn't mention anything at all about how he switched lawyers after firing his old one paid by Notch. The legal fees he is referring to are likely to pay the second lawyer who was a complete retard that the judge literally called out for excessively charging money. Billy was suing for 400k, Karl got an estimate for 200k from his second lawyer and ended up paying 600 THOUSAND DOLLARYDOOS to his second lawyer alone. He got completely scammed. Just go through these court documents and you'll see what an utter retard Karl made of himself: >Original defamation claim made by Billy: https://kiwifarms.st/attachments/202109200917-pdf.7229214/ >Security and costs document (you can clearly see how Karl's retard lawyer is estimating 200k total for his services initially and Billy's lawyer is estimating half that for his) https://www.queenslandjudgments.com.au/caselaw/qdc/2022/218 >Judgment https://www.queenslandjudgments.com.au/caselaw/qdc/2025/41

Bench trials should be illegal. >nooo you can't shit talk the legal crybully with an already ruined reputation! >>10767 >>10795 Billy Mitchel used MAME and a non regulation 8 position joystick to get his donkey kong world record. MAME is very important because it's an emulator. The Donkey Kong community agrees that MAME is much easier to play than real hardware. Forum thread from 2013 discussing MAME being easier than real hardware. https://archive.is/wip/FVNhk The reason it's easier to play an emulator should be obvious. Faster CPU, more memory, faster I/O polling rates. You can react faster and have lower chances of missed inputs (you press the button and nothing happens.) Do I think Billy used software cheats? Probably not. MAME alone is enough of an advantage to disqualify him. >>10871 You're wrong. There is 100% definitive proof he cheated. Picrel shows arcade hardware vs MAME emulator loading screens. He always used MAME. He used a modified 8 position joystick and not the 4 position one. Billy is disqualified and it isn't debatable. >>10905 I don't think defaming someone who lied about a world record, used the legal system as a club, then rewarding him is a good legal president. A proper judgement would be a few thousand dollars, lawyers fees, and public apology.
>>12100 Billy was seeking 400k dollarydoos at most, but Karl's behavior during the trial was so repulsive to the judge that he awarded him the maximum amount + interest. Not to mention, Karl's legal fees were incredibly excessive at 600k and surpassed the maximum damages Billy was seeking in the first place by 200k. Like the judge said, it was obvious he was fighting the case so he could be the one to "slay the dragon". There was no "proper judgement", the optimal outcome would have been for Karl to not be retarded and take a settlement. Even if Billy's lawsuit was frivolous, the things you listed, minus the lawyer's fees, would have been all a settlement would amount to. Instead he risked taking it to trial and lost everything and MORE.
>>12100 Did you forget the part where the judge said; I WAS NOT HERE TO DECIDE, NOR DID I DECIDE, WHETHER HE CHEATED Retard, the ENTIRE FUCKING CASE was about Karl saying Billy caused Apollo to kill himself.

He always used MAME. He used a modified 8 position joystick and not the 4 position one. Billy is disqualified and it isn't debatable. Having a run invalidated isn't the same as cheating. At most they should have done what they usually done in these speedrunning places. Break the different types of runs and runs on different hardware into their own categories. The Speedweed community is way too ready to declare people to be cheaters. It's like that dream guy and his Minecraft run. He didn't cheat, he fucked up because he's not really a speedrunner and most of his content was doing Minecraft entertainment stuff. But the speedrunning cheater sleuth squad was so ready to jump on him that he immediately went to defend himself without having a moment to think to himself "Wait did I triple check if I had all my mods disabled from my autistic youtube bullshit?" I blame shitters like Apollo, Karl, and even Critical for this "gotcha clout" farming on youtube and elsewhere.

>>12155 >Billy was seeking 400k dollarydoos at most It was 50k. The 400k was what the judge fined Karl for in the end, even saying that Billy could've easily demanded more for the proven damages Karl caused him. And now somehow Karl wants to appeal it, Australian appeals can up the fine when he loses again.
>>12666 No it wasn't. That was just aggravated damages, which stayed 50k consistently throughout the case. The actual damages he was suing for were initially 400k but lowered to 300k by the time the sentence was ruled. I think this part needs to be emphasized again. When your OWN legal fees are almost double the damages the plaintiff is seeking, the case is NOT worth pursuing. Karl didn't settle because he didn't want to end up disgraced like Apollo did for taking his settlement. He also felt like he was obligated to because he gave his word to his audience that he would fight it to the end. And like the judge said, he wanted to be the first person to take down Billy. You never want to drag out a legal case if money is an issue, especially if can get an out with a settlement. The worst he would have gotten if he took a settlement is some egg on his face from his fans. But people forget fast in the world of e-drama and he would have recovered fairly quickly. Fighting the case was an idiotic decision that doomed him, regardless of whether the initial claim was valid.
>>13129 >Karl didn't settle because he didn't want to end up disgraced like Apollo did Ultimately what fucked Karl and Apollo was their retarded friend group of speedrunners who have been pushing them to leap into the bear's mouth behind the scenes. And the worst part is: They won't be held remotely accountable for it even though they're listed on Apollo's suicide note.
>>13129 Insane amount of money. Bring wrong about one thing didn't cause damage to Billy's reputation. Karl saying "billy is a cheater" 500 times did more damage than "he caused appolos suicide." This is just proving rich people can use the law as a weapon.

>>12528 I don't give a damn about that guy or his youtub content. I think it's shit like most youtube stuff. I just don't think he's a cheater. I do think he's a dumbass but not a cheater. I also think The Speedrunning Community! is way too ready to to go on a crusade.

Just imagine, he could have been gloating RIGHT NOW had he shut the fuck up, popping champagne bottles, doing anal with his wife while snorting coke, a total chad victory. All he had to do was not be a smug self-incriminating little shit lmfao.

>>15908 It's not that I like Billy. It's that I like making fun of Karl.
>>15864 The issue with putting the screencap of Billy saying he would be happy if that speedrunner was dead in that same sentence of talking about the suicide should be obvious to anyone with a functioning brain as to how it comes off, it's kind of like implication by that point of what you're trying to say unless you clarify that it's not. It's not presumptuous for people's imaginations to jump straight to that conclusion. It also doesn't take much for a lawyer to do something with that. And if he knew Billy was sue happy he should have been more careful with his own presentation. That being said: being quiet about the case may have helped too since a lawyer told him to do that and he didn't listen. What the hell is wrong with him? ignoring legal advice.
>>9073 kek what a kwab
I'm reminded of Chris Avellone's defamation ordeal as to why listening to a lawyer about staying silent before a case likely matters. Not totally comparable, but the logic still likely applies.
>>12100 >Billy using MAME is no different from baseball players using non-regulation bats I don't care about either of these.
Can someone link Apollo's suicide note? (Please?)
>>15837 Someone having a shit reputation for being a cheater at a 40 year old arcade game is a lot different to having a reputation for making people commit suicide.
>>9073 jobber
>>16454 Rules are rules. Billy could compete in the MAME category. >>16623 That's fair. The judgement is still too much.
>>16422 > That being said: being quiet about the case may have helped too since a lawyer told him to do that and he didn't listen. What the hell is wrong with him? ignoring legal advice. You can't make youtube money by staying quiet.

>Only 128 replies after more than a week I mean, what happened? Your userbase went™ back™, hmm? You see, a chan like 4Chan, had dozens of threads about Karl Jobber, following the end of the trial of the century, that either hit the bump limit or were removed by she/hers truly, even when there was no new information to discuss
What is this retard shit? Why are you schzoposting about 4chan in an eceleb thread?

>Bankruptcy filed. It's Jobover.
>4chan goes back up >this thread dies on the spot hmm
The way I see it (I'm not familiar with legal stuff), is that the cheater guy was trying to make it seem like the case was about cheating, when it actually was about that thing of this guy saying his actions caused that one speedrunner to cause suicide. Basically I think this guy was in the right, and that he wasn't deceiving his fans, the other guy was probably freemason and had good ties with masons so that's probably why he won (also he told the judge "this guy's a racist chud, he's basically our enemy", which probably made judge more likely to side with the cheater guy, because there's clear anti-white culture we're living in now, and we wouldn't want non-psyop whiteys getting any Ws now would we?)
>>27932 /x/ tier tbh Though you are possibly correct about the judge disliking Jobst, but not for the reason you're saying. He kept talking about the case publicly and openly insulting the plaintiff, in a defamation suit. Judges act like they're impartial decoders of law, but they're humans with biases like all of us. It's entirely possible for somebody for someone to get a ruling against them because they pissed off the judge enough, and Jobst was in firm "pissing off the judge" territory.
>>12284 >I blame shitters like Apollo, Karl, and even Critical for this "gotcha clout" farming on youtube and elsewhere. actually Karl gave him the benefit of the doubt
Does anyone else feel like interest in speedrunning has dropped off in the past several years? I think it's probably a combination of the original people in the community being pushed out, over corporatization of the hobby, tranny fatigue, and cheater scandals (ironically that are being boosted to public perception by the likes of Karl here.) >>27933 Karl's the kind of autist that just doesn't know when to quit.
>>28255 The major venues like GDQ literally aren't about showing the best speedrunners, since they ban them in favor of trannies. So when people see speedrunning, they're not even seeing the good ones. So of course they don't care anymore. Also, speedrunning is the most degenerate act known to mankind.
>>28260 And on the flipside they've banned all the truly trainwreck trannies too so there's no more even gawking at a trashfire anymore. It's all just bland.
Something I've noticed is how much negative attention le aussie speedster has gotten despite not bringing it up himself. Videos with titles like "KARL HAS A TOTAL MELTDOWN" when he's barely talked about the lawsuit since his loss. A lot of the drama around him feels like complete and pure alogging, sloptubers and dramafags wanting to turn him into a lolcow when he's obviously not. This is possibly something he invited himself after years of videos about Billy Bitchel, he nurtured an audience of drama hungry duds and that came back to bite him in the ass. If he keeps ignoring it they'll probably go away, views for those kinds of videos have already fallen off a cliff over the last two weeks as they don't have more "content" to work with and le ebin trolling isn't fun when you don't get a reaction.
>>28265 >This is possibly something he invited himself after years of videos about Billy Bitchel, he nurtured an audience of drama hungry duds and that came back to bite him in the ass. Yeah. He should have stuck to talking about skilled speedrunners and speedrunning techs and history instead of becoming a call out channel for cheaters in the community. I think the youtube algorithm fucks people and sends them down a path they wouldn't normally go.
