Billy Mitchell Lost His Lawsuit

Billy's lawsuit against Twin Galaxies has come to an end.

Please follow me on these platforms, it really helps!

Billy sues so often we really need to make a Lose Your Lawsuit any% leaderboard — he’s put in enough WR attempts to truly deserve it

The lawyer for TG dropped the ball on this. He got caught sending texts to witnesses so got slapped by the judge for witness intimidation. That one misstep was all Billy's team needed to have the leverage to push for a settlement.

Kinda sad to see that they settled because now Billy can be like "Oh you see, they settled with me so they know I'm right" or something similarly stupid.

I still find it difficult to believe that Billy Mitchell is an actual human being and not a cartoon villain

[siskavard]

Billie is mentally stuck in a pre-interenet era where lying was easier because there wasn't an army of people online willing to devote their time to investigating his claims. It reminds me of my kids when they lie about eating chocolate when its smeared all over their face.

It's a bit dishonest to neglect to mention that TG's lawyer did a big no-no, committing contempt of court by inappropriately contacting some of Billy's witnesses. This was no doubt a big factor in the decision to ultimately settle. You've sung his praise a lot about how smart he is, but this was a very, very dumb move, and it ruined their case.

While I get why they'd settle, it's also frustrating because it's basically the best possible outcome for Billy

[Apipus]

What I’ve always been confused by is how he has the money to sue this much

[AStupidID]

This is disappointing. I can understand why Twin Galaxies didn't want to spend even more money by going to court, but it's a shame Silly won't be shown for who he is. I've already seen people saying they both must have been in the wrong for this settlement to happen, and that's terrible to hear :(.

Karl, all the respect in the world, but THIS is not a loss for that piece of work even by a long shot. This is a giant loss for everyone who might "disagree" with Mitchell. He proved that he can subdue and pressure you to conform somewhat, and IT'S ALL HE NEEDED. It will be enough for him to go another 10-15 years talking about how he proved Twin Galaxies wrong, refering to "being reinstated on twin galaxy website" and using other half-truths as he did for past 30 years. He lost NOTHING.

I honestly think that Billy is quite happy with what he got from TG. They took the easy way out, there. Billy can use the original Leaderboard scores to maintain his lies towards some dumb circles of people.

[Pigeons]

Honestly Karl, I love your content, but don't try to present this as something it's not. This is a W for Billy. The vast majority of people are not gonna recognize the nuance of how his scores were "reinstated" and he has more than enough to make it look to the uninformed observer like his lies were true, and the uninformed observer is exactly who he has always tried to pander to. It's already being reported widely that "his scores were reinstated" when that isn't what happened.

The person who benefits most here is Billy, and the people hurt the most are the people who could've used a TG win as leverage in court in their own frivolous suits from Billy. Do not pretend otherwise.

[Kyra-qnnh]

He literally got the best possible outcome for himself logically. He couldn't win, and he didn't lose.

[mrmojorisin]

This video leaves out one of the most important points: TG’s lawyer bungled the case and was on the hook for misconduct (improper communication with a witness or some such ), and that had much to do with the out of court settlement. This info should NOT have been left out.

[Razer]

The fact that TG dropped their case against Billy and threw it on a settlement is downright sad...

[alex_hey]

Always love the videos Karl but I think you may need to change the title to something a little misleading. Billy Mitchell technically did not 'lose' this lawsuit although the outcome is pretty negative for him. A settlement is much different as it does not confirm a verdict for either side meaning BM can still claim that he did not cheat.

[notenoughmonkeys]

When I first watched this, I thought this meant Billy had lost, but then I re-watched your video through my malfunctioning VCR, and it turns out he won on all counts. Technology is weird.

[leikeylosh]

That was absolutely a win for Mitchell. Even if Mitchell's records are in a "throwback" section on TG's website and not officially recognized by them, they are still there and Mitchell is going to use that as proof that he didn't cheat on everyone gullible enough to believe his lies. In other words, nothing changed. In the eyes of the law, he's not a cheater. I hope Karl's lawsuit can change that.

[EagleEric_VA]

Billy's settlement in court was the best possible result for him.

This is the worst timeline.

Remember being a kid, thinking that adults had their shit together? Now we’re grown up and find that these adults are involved in lawsuits centered around cheating at video games. I don’t think people are taking the time to step back and look at how surreal and stupid this really is.
