Mary McManus
« on: February 13, 2013, 01:03:35 pm »
Got an impressive 967400 Over at RetroUprising.com during the The K.O. II weekend.

Don't know much about them apart from I think they've learnt from the Tim Sczerby school of D.K!

Does anyone on here know him/her? They clearly have some skill.

The game was uploaded today.

Given his scores and the content of some of his posts on the RU forums I'd actually been suspecting Mary McManus was Tim Sczerby himself.

Yep. That was my guess. I just did some cross-referencing on some data and it seems pretty clear it is him!

Yeah, this person is claiming that Sczerby is her/his mentor.  Given that they have the exact same score as Sczerby I find it highly suspicious.

No disrespect, but why would someone has Tim Sczerby for his mentor? Does he know him personally? We never hear about Tim anymore, I'm just wondering, this looks weird.
