Billy Mitchell didn’t win his defamation lawsuit against Twin Galaxies. Not only was Billy not in a position to get a financial settlement, Billy’s cheated Donkey Kong scores were not reinstated(as he’s claiming), and his claimed Pac-Man score from 1999 is also not on the main scoreboards. What had happened is that the score is technically still up on the “historical scoreboard” from 2014, which is meaningless. Billy’s attempts to spin this as a win are especially ludicrous when he still has to deal with lawsuits against Karl Jobst and David Race, and Karl, at least, has incentive to string his lawsuit out as long as possible.

    Fuck Billy Mitchell

    I didn’t read the article and was very confused when I skimmed the comments. There’s a famous Billy Mitchell who was very important in developing American air doctrine around World War II.
