It seems we are hours away from a final verdict! Comment 3003 on their forums has left me completely dead
Reference: TG Post #2661Quote from: JaceI specifically asked Carlos how much more time he needs to get through his process, and I told him that we are waiting to include his findings and evaluate them before finalizing a decision. I also told him that we have limited time to wait for him. He understood and had no issue and indicated the desire to be done quickly as well.He said he will provide TG with a time estimate shortly. I indicated that we have allowed for at least through the weekend for him to finish up his work, but a decision will need to be made very shortly after that no matter what. There is a potential TG banning soon if anyone is interested.

Quote from: maximumsteve on April 09, 2018, 08:11:16 pmMy Conclusion on the 1.047 & 1.050 game tapes is that they were NOT generated from a Genuine Nintendo Donkey Kong PCB. The signatures which are normally produced by those PCB's are NOT on the recordings.Repeated testing and viewing of the game on those tapes do not demonstrate the signatures found on recordings coming out of Genuine Nintendo Donkey Kong Arcade boards." End Quote.We've known all along what it isn't, what we don't know is what it is.It could be: 1. MAME 2. another emulator 3. a bootleg donkey kong board, which is only loosely based on the original 4. a modified original donkey kong boardBilly repeatedly saying it's not MAME could be the truth, but that doesn't mean the score is valid.

I feel sorry for any lawyer who has Joel as one of their paralegals. My grammar brain just PTFO. His comma placement is SUPOIB! *kisses fingers*
I can't see how he would be able to state this with such confidence unless he was quite familiar with MAME and/or was only saying what he knew to be true about those tapes.
(snip)It is understood that there is a lot of anticipation for closure in this matter and I greatly apologize that there is this additional delay. It is entirely schedule related and has nothing to do with anything else.Please bear with me (us).
