To be clear, are you suggesting he is scripting the *entire* race? On a race where you are frequently stunned, dodge roamers, and juke stutter step, and have to macro target the end to wand Statue?

If getting off the line ASAP is of no consequence whatsoever, than why would anyone use scripting unless there was more to the script than that alone? It was all but confirmed that a script was being used; removing the how-to videos only underscored what everyone took away from the mini documentary. If someone is willing to cheat for what you consider to be a negligible amount of time, what would be the purpose, considering they are as good as you claim? Also, there are other cases where human error revealed scripting on this project, with unintended and embarrassing outcomes. It's not as though these accusations came out of left field.

I'm sure there's videos of the practice server races. I spent a few hours racing him and others myself personally. He didn't win an overwhelming amount of times. I even won once and I hadn't played in 4 years. Not only that, but Venice ended up beating him for all-time best time (87 sec?).

Players who are suspected of two-boxing are put through a series of tests on the spot. It would be interesting to see if he could demonstrate the same reaction times in different settings with different random numbers being used as the green light. If I was in Vanquish, and felt that their was nothing suspicious about those numbers, that would take priority over creating antagonistic RNF threads.

If you've spent time practicing the Statue race, you know it's won or lost on the two rocks, and the turns. The faster you turn, the faster you're back to strafing. So swinging the mouse instantly into the *right position* is essential. Not only that, people who mess up the rocks, or Levitating to the ledge aren't even competitive. There's so many other things you can mess up too, like being Not An Ogre (grats on stuns), DA'ing thru Vindi then not clicking it off to Wand Statue, not running 60fps and failing to Levitate the arena ledge, not strafing properly (this is #1 reason), not macro targetting statue, or failing the door opening, and probably like 10 other things I'm forgetting.

KT instead of Statue, but yes I got the gist and realized it was pointless because my lev had less and less buoyancy for every player involved; in other words, my best times were only possible in practice. If the 30 minute documentary is ridiculous to you, which seems likely since that's how it was described, than consider how the actual races look from an outsider's perspective. And the wall staring. And the pre-parked alt armies. That someone had to compile that much evidence together rather than play the actual game, worry-free, says something about the state of the game.
