  1. I feel a disturbance in the force
    like a bunch of 12 year old children are coming to attack to defend their king

  2. I 100 percent think he cheated.
    A lot of us have played Pokémon right? Well in Pokémon speed runs, you will rarely ever see a shiny, which is a 1 in 8192 chance. And, those happen in longer runs. To say that dream got a absolute perfect run with that rng, it’s just inhumane. It’s not legit and I think he is in the wrong here

  3. Dream oopsied really bad. I dont know what will happen to him. He can analyze statistics and algorithms all he wants, we know he’s a smart person, but handling such a big responsibility in such a short amount of time changed him. I think the fame and the ass kissing got to his head. I hope he will one day own up to his mistakes and become a better creator. I dont hate his living guts but i dont worship him either. Dream, I’ll tell you in the nicest way possible, you fucked up.

  4. Good video! I had heard that there was some controversy with dream but didnt know what. This gave me a good description of the issue and how to learn more about it. I give you 1 like on video and comment, a rare award provided by me. 👌🏼

  5. I mean hows he suppose to prove it? The save file itself? I know folks with some BS rng no matter what they play so its entirely possible (wow mounts first try .0001 drop rates bs rng)

  6. There's a lot of posts here about my 1.16 speedrun time removal, and some people upset with my response on Twitter. Obviously, I didn't cheat in any way and I plan on making a video to address these things. However, it will take time for me to thoroughly and completely address it, as the accusations took two months for the mods to work on. It's not something I can throw together in a day, and is going to require a lot of my attention.

    To clear up misinformation though, my 1.15 record remains up and verified, and I was not banned from submitting runs. My 1.16 (16th place, but 5th place when I got it) run was unverified due to the seemingly incredible statistical odds that I could have had the luck that I did over a few day period.

    As I didn't cheat, I know that there's going to be a way to disprove the statistics, but again, I'm not a mathematician and I don't know how. I'm going to be most likely hiring multiple well renowned statisticians to look at the numbers, and most likely have a roll in my response. On top of that, most likely talking with Minecraft developers, as well as other prominent figures regarding it.

    I understand that the numbers presented look suspicious, because they are not numbers you would ever expect to see during a non-glitched series of speedruns. I don't disagree with that, but I do have doubts that these numbers are entirely accurate, and I have doubts about the mods intent to fairly investigate my side.

    As for addressing the physical side of "how" I may have cheated, I can completely and fully beyond a reasonable doubt prove that I did not use a mod or datapack during my speedruns, and how I can prove that will obviously be talked about in the video. It's not related to the statistics, but it does show that it is much much more likely that the statistics are off (or that there is some other contributing factor).

    As for the video made by Geosquare, there was certain bits of misleading information, like the lie that I said that I "delete my mod contents regularly" (something that was never said). It made it seem like I was not cooperating with the investigation. I fully cooperated and provided every file that was ever requested from me, and I will be making those files public at some point in the future. On top of that, it was stated that I am a mod developer, when I have never developed a mod in my life, and do not know how to develop a mod. I can also reasonably prove this, and I offered the mod team at multiple points all of my development related files so they can tell that I did not code anything related to Minecraft RNG. It was also stated that it made it suspicious that I had "Fabric API" loaded, without mentioning why I had it loaded. I had provided the information of why I had Fabric API downloaded well before any suspicion involving Fabric API was brought forward. I volunteered the information that I did in fact have Fabric API downloaded, as I had nothing to hide. The log files that they showed in the video were again, volunteered by myself, as I had nothing to hide.

    So as for the numbers, they seem very high, but they're most likely completely wrong. When working with numbers this big, one small mistake and it drops by orders of magnitudes. The numbers have fluctuated throughout the investigation, and according to inside sources where being debated internally up until minutes before the post. Numbers can be misleading, and have been used to falsely convict people in the justice system (unrelated to Minecraft), tens of thousands of times in the past, until later conflicting reports come out. I advise anyone that thinks that it's "1 in 10 trillion" or whatever was said, to hold your tongue and wait until I'm able to get statisticians to provide most likely more accurate numbers. In their paper there are a few obvious things I can point out, like the fact that they use "1000 speedrunners" as a quote "generous upper bound" for their statistics, when there are over 900 submitted runs on 1.16 Java edition alone, not to mention the around 10,000 people in the speedrun discord, and the tens of thousand of other people that speedrun. While constantly stating that these calculations are "biased towards me" and that they used numbers "favorable to me", they call things like that an "upper bound", when I would point out that it is nearly a "lower bound" because we at bare minimum 1000% know there are at least that many speedrunners.

    As well as addressing the things above in the video, I also do have to address the harassment from the mods and verifiers that I received throughout the investigation. Although not important to the statistics, it is very important to the conclusion, as statistics can be interpreted one way or another. It's also important to me, and definitely helps explain my less thought out more agitated responses. There's a lot that almost no one knows about that went on behind the scenes, and I'll definitely be talking about that. It's not me whining about bias when it's not there, there is genuine bias, but that doesn't invalidate the statistics.

    Otherwise, for now, sit tight. You've heard one argument that took 60 days to prepare, from a group of volunteers. I'll try and make sure that my response touches on all the important things, but I will need time to put it together. Hope this clears my thought process up a little bit though.
    DREAM ON REDDIT RECENTLY

  7. Still a dream fan for his manhunt videos and such but it’d be a lot nicer to see him take this on the head and accept that he was caught. Being caught speed running is shitty but it’s not like he’s satan-level evil or anything. But what’s gonna make him hard to watch is seeing how he’s literally making Trump tweets trying to defend himself

  8. I knew this was really serious when the comment section is full of verificated channels and like two guys of my native language, that moment I knew than Dream was really fucked up
