Panel description: | |||
"Trolls cheating in video games by passing Tool-Assisted Speedruns off as human effort break leaderboards and stifle speedrunners. Why do they do it when they could show off a cool game hack or make a TAS to show off their work, and how do you trap these trolls? The answer is to use their own tools against them, often with popcorn bucket worthy results like taking down Guinness World Records. From a TASVideos member taking on 1980's Dragster cheat Todd Rogers, a passing mention of Billy Mitchell, and the TASBot team investigating Super Mario Maker shenanigans, this talk covers several notable cheating incidents and concludes with a systematic takedown of a troll that chilled the Diablo speedrunning community for more than a decade." | |||
