Couldn't say it better...... Matthias, I also fully agree with Zoran here too...

I have mixed feelings. What you did was unjustifiable and undeniably an act of deception against an entire community for the purposes of self-aggrandizement. On the other hand, it's a symptomatic outreach for recognition in a forum where you feel you share common qualities with people and that provides you a facsimile of comfort.

I'm not a man to pass judgment on any other man, nor do I believe anyone has the right to. However, your first responsibility is not to justify it by implicating unrelated personal issues as some sort of excuse for it. You could have had just as much of a role in the community playing simply to improve upon your own personal bests, and that alone would have given you satisfaction and every right to be an honorary part of the community that you went to such lengths to secure the admiration of.

However, following this, it's difficult for me to give any advice except but to truly reflect on the ramifications of this and how they represent a big problem, a problem that you are aware of allthewhile contributing to. I think you're a cool guy Myles, although we occupy quite opposite ends of many spectrums and beliefs. I just hope you've learned your lesson and can prove to us that you are capable of performing at a high level regardless, through good old fashioned practice.

I believe you have it in you. I think that your biggest problem may be dwelling on the facts about yourself that you aren't proud of. Your actions are no way to compensate for that, and I know you don't need me to tell you that. You've given me legitimate help in the past and if it weren't for you I'd never have hit a god time. You can be an asset to the community. But now you've created a nearly insurmountable challenge - backpedaling against the public opinion that sees you as caustic. I can hardly say I blame them, but I really wouldn't want you to be ostracized from a place where there are people who consider you with regard despite every disagreement and misunderstanding between.

Please consider doing something to restore any modicum of faith in your worth as a staple in this humble community. I'd like to see this have a happy ending.. otherwise, I don't know who I really can trust anymore.

On the other hand, the selfish side of me does feel a tiny bit better about my own mediocre skill now, so one positive thing I can say is   for that

Also Myles, for the record, I don't think what you did is completely unforgivable. Hopefully you refrain from cheating anymore  

Started speedrunning Missing Stars, I'll stream attempts live in the future runs

Well things have gotten better with mk64 lately in regards to proof. Now we have a lot of streamers and making videos of runs has gotten a lot easier with youtube and other things. A far cry from old days where some sketchy unknown person would post a WR out of blue and only video they had would be end screen.

Nero seems to be the most likely candidate to beat the 120 star world record, and Alex to beat the 70 star world record. I really hope Alex gets it, since he's never held a hotly contested-for world record before.

Looks like no one gets my sense of humor.
