Not Pinball, but arcade. Donkey Kong champ a fraud

Widely known publically for a good little while now, him and Todd Rogers for being some of the biggest bull sharters going. Plenty of evidence online and lots of resistance from fanboys and even TG itself, definite 'old boys' club atmosphere.
What's news here is that Twin Galaxies itself has agreed with the findings and has scrubbed his scores. That's pretty darned big - and unexpected to those familiar with TG's workings. Mitchell is (...was?) a huge funder of TG.

Regardless of his DK drama ......... we'll always be grateful to Billy Mitchell for supporting the first South Coast Slam (2010) ...providing souvenir signed posters and bottles of his family's hot sauce for prizes ! 
Cheers you long haired cheating b*stard

met him a few years ago; can't say I'm surprised with todays news.
Bet Phil and Grant mighty ****ed
Always came across as a huge showman and that probably also helped with the PR needed for Twin Galaxies.
Sad to hear the news but it sounds like a lot of drama to say that it's over a video game score. Evidently some people take it waaaaay more seriously than me.
But then i'm rubbish at video games so that might explain why. :-D

"King of Kongs" if anyone want to see the film, worth it for a few quid on iTunes...
Free on YouTube.
I really enjoyed it and going to watch it again to remember how much of a plonker he was on it and now he is busted

I always thought KOK was a kind of mockumentary where they portrayed Steve Wiebe as the good every man type character against the evil Billy Mitchell to hype up Twin Galaxies and the competitive arcade scene.
The cynic in me thinks this might be the same thing...
Waiting for Billy Mitchell to come back and prove everyone wrong in KOK2 to complete the story.

What a joker
He always came across as a bit of a *** didn't he. Still, King of Kong is great fun
