In order to be running a mod the mod has to be installed and activated on your game. This is.../not/ actually difficult to do. It's not difficult to check for either. It is very definitely not beyond Dream's technical ability. One of the basic rules of speedrunning is that you don't run mods. It's also completely trivial to rename mods so that a mod that is named 'completely innocent pov shader' is actually a cheat compilation. This is why it's a rule: There is no way the community can trust that any mod you have installed is /not/ a cheat. So you check for this before you start the run. And you provide the screenshots of your empty mods folder in addition to your video. Someone as accomplished as Dream not doing these things and going out of his way to not provide that info? Absolute lack of credibility. He knew he was cheating. He just didn't want anyone else to know that. He's also 'somewhat obnoxious' of course, it's a core component of his brand, but that has little to do with his cheating methods.

For context: in sport, if someone has illegal substances in their system they receive a ban, no matter what. A lot of cases of band are when the athlete is taking a supplement that contained the substance and they didn’t know. It is the athletes responsibility to know whether or not their supplements have banned substances. In speedrunning, it should be the case that the speerunner is responsible for ensuring they are not cheating.

Honestly I don't care if he cheated or not at this point. His attitude about the whole thing makes me roll my eyes and shake my head. A team of over 10 extremely dedicated minecraft speedrun moderators spent 2 months looking at every detail and crunching every statistic with extremely complicated math that no one on the internet corrects (and we all know the internet can never refuse such a temptation) and dream never even once thought "hmm something is really wrong here!". He hired someone, fed them data and when they came up with different numbers he didn't raise consern or ask for second opinions. No. Dream made a video smugly trying to debunk everything whilst sounding as arrogant as possible. Idc if he cheated or not. I know what kind of person he is now and I don't really want to be around those kinds of people :/ I hope Dream learns and becomes a better person. I'd like to see a legitimate speedrun with a humble and lovable Dream in the future.

Looking back on this a year later, while Dream might not have cheated on purpose, he’s still definitely at fault for his behavior. Yes, Dream had no reason to think his game could’ve been modded. However, he knew that he’d been paying somebody to modify Minecraft in the same way he had been accused of, so he should’ve asked his developer if they had modified the file to any extent around the time where the accused cheating happened. And letting several months fly by before coming out with the truth all while the ones who were correct in their accusations were getting harassed daily by his fans is horrible. Not to mention his knee-jerk reaction of a response to the accusations only served to further incriminate himself.

As a diablo 2 player who hate myself, play solo and hunt for the rarest runes. If they started dropping at a rate I never see either for myself or somebody else. I would go and see first on the forums or the patch notes if they changed the drop rate or check if there's isn't any kind of client editor. It would be more obvious to someone that speedruns diablo or at least is a pro at doing runs. If you were frustrated for the drop rate as Dream expressed on the forums and then you get an unusual amount of drops, I would check if Mojang changed something and then if something changed with my client. What I'm trying to say is that if somebody pointed out that my drop rate is irregular to an item that's so rare, I would agree and find out why it was so high.

This video has all of the marks of a genuine, honest, unbiased, and truth-seeking endeavor. It's not omitting shit that doesn't fit with a narrative, it's not trying to smoothen out all the rough edges of the story... The fact that my opinion has gone back and forth a dozen times about all of the folks involved while I watched this video is, to me, indicative of Karl really getting to the heart of a story like this. Real life is fucking messy and complicated, but everyone wants a succinct explanation to satisfy their hunger for a simple, tweetable narrative. I have a feeling that during this investigation Karl probably had all of the realizations and back-and-forths I just had while watching this video. I found myself thinking multiple times throughout this video, "is Karl trying to convince me this dude cheated or he's innocent??" but I think the truth is he's trying to give us all the facts, as he was able to collect them. THAT is exactly the sort of content we need, give us ALL of the evidence so we can come to our own conclusions, but the saddest part of that is the masses aren't equipped to properly absorb, analyze, and be skeptical of a raw dump of unbiased facts and evidence. Good work Karl, as usual!

This video is certainly head and shoulders over every other video on this topic. Yet, I feel that there was quite a bit of unnecessary conjecture that detracted from Karl's objectivity. The entire portion regarding Dream's deleted mod folder sounded unconvincing to me. It's not that I believe Dream is lying, it's that Karl's analysis did not seem supported by the evidence he laid before us - there were so many alternative explanations. Of course this is a YT video, not a court submission, so I'm still quite satisfied; I simply had some critiques.

Thank you for taking such a difficult and heated topic and addressing it in a far more objective way than I would have thought possible. I apologize for the dissertation but as someone who loves watching streamers but has no particular feelings toward Dreams either one way or another, this was my introduction to him. While I originally thought that your objections were more tailored to add believability to their authenticity as opposed to actually being genuine, the areas of your criticism and seemingly objective weighing of factors both for and against your own original suppositions was very well thought out and I felt showed an evolved opinion. Thank you for taking so much time and effort to shed light on a topic that I feel most people would most likely be quick to make assumptions based on hearsay or out of a general dislike of cheating in general. I feel that you have done a masterful job of actually giving people enough information to form real , constructive opinions of Dream whether they be positive or negative. Again, thank you for giving us enough information to create informed opinions as opposed to just spreading around drama and hate.

Honestly, Dream's lies in the face of his accusations make it so hard for me to believe he had no idea that he was cheating. If he was a smart cheater, he would have definitely acted differently, but I wonder if it's possible he knew he was cheating and it was like one of those scary dread inducing things that haunt you where you know you're fucking up, but your anxiety prevents you from giving it any attention. Kinda like when people get horrible cavities and stuff and just keep vibing instead of dealing with it.

This came to mind for me as well. Karl said that it’s understandable that no one realized Dream was cheating, which I get. Cheaters fly under the radar all the time because as Karl often says in his videos, hindsight is 20/20. But I don’t think the same applies for Dream. I think it’s far more likely he figured out the drop rate could have been adjusted because he commissioned the mod. Everyone else watching wouldn’t have been privy to that information. But I can totally see him brushing that possibility away because frankly, it fixed the 2 things he was most frustrated with. That being said, I still think that is even less likely than him knowing out right. But - I of course am not privy to every detail and there are people out there who understand this stuff more than I do. Dream seems like a cool person, and I can see why a lot of people are coming to his defense. There’s just still way too many pieces that aren’t adding up to me. But I want to believe him, I wish I did, and I will continue to remain open.

Ant Venom’s section speaking on cycling mods out of folders, I couldn't help but reflect on my 7 copies of GTA 5 that I use for content creation; I press a single button to change which folder steam looks at. Patch 1.24, Patch 1.27, Chaos, Newest Patch, Modded, OHKO, and No Cutscene skip. Many of these look identical and you'd never know which one I was using once I was in the game except for one thing. The strategy of 'Save-warping' causes your game to crash if you have mods loaded. I have a done a handful of runs on my modded version, only to crash an hour in when I tried to save warp which alerted me to my mistake. I find your explanation for Dream’s behaviour and his modded-runs (that he inadvertently cheated) to make more sense than him intentionally cheating. My initial interest in the ‘Dream Cheating’ story was due to my reverence for the moderator’s efforts to determine his runs were cheated, and my first video was largely just expressing that. I am not a statistician, yet I read the report and felt I understood enough to believe it valid. When Dream’s report came out, I did not catch the errors caught by others. Speaking to the statisticians of the moderator’s report also helped me understand that I did not possess the level of understanding I believed. Given this revelation I questioned why I should have any confidence that Dream cheated. I concluded I only felt confidence due to lengths the moderators went to, Dream’s poor conduct, and a bias driven by a strong dislike of those who violate rules for their own gain (which Dream was now associated with). Now having competing statistical analyses and commentary of which I didn’t feel qualified to assess, I considered the foundation for my belief that he cheated quite poor. When he contacted me asking to be interviewed, I was confused. My videos were not exactly kind to him. If he was going to seek out a softball interview, why would he pick me? I didn’t exactly have the reputation for being a push-over. I sat down to watched and read everything again to devise what I felt were the questions that would best enable me to get information that had not yet been presented publically. I made over 30 and I questioned whether I had inadvertently set out to confirm my original position perhaps out of bias. It is worth noting, I read many of Dream’s different social media posts while making these questions and I did see a difference between Dream’s earlier comments and later comments which, at the time, I attributed to damage control rather than growth as a person. So I had the interview with Dream. While he didn’t always give a “perfect” answer, Dream always seemed to have an answer. He didn’t hesitate. The answer didn’t come across as scripted, but they also didn’t come across as a person struggling to think of an excuse. He came across as a likeable person, something even those who accused him of cheating continued to maintain. Almost 3 hours we were there, he didn’t complain. It only ended when I ran out of questions and it seemed like he would have been fine to be there for the rest of time, I was usually the one who said we had to move on from a question because he just wanted to plead his case as much as possible. 20% of viewers made it 15 minutes in, 10% 1 hour, 5% all the way. Few cared what he had to say, and few were interested why I changed my mind even while being perfectly fine mocking me for it. The interview made me unsure of what to think of Dream, and being unable to believe myself qualified to feel confident in the statistics, I ended the conversation by saying something like “I am unsure, but if I had a gun to my head I wouldn’t say you cheated”. This is an expression to mean you would only make a decision if you were forced under penalty of death given your lack of confidence. It is after all “innocent until proven guilty” and I didn’t feel firm enough to confirm guilt. After the interview, many videos were released breaking down the papers and what they actually assessed and how. This made me feel more confident that Dream cheated, as I had regained my trust in the statistics, but now I felt this trust was justified. I now had to invent reasons for myself as to how all of Dreams actions (which Karl listed in the video) made sense for a cheater to do. None of the possible explanations seemed to fit well, but the facts of the run being cheated seemed undeniable so I settled on Dream hating RNG and just wanted to speed things up to get a run he deserved. If I had to choose between that explanation and the one given in this video, that Dream unknowingly cheated, the second explanation seems to fit better with the totality of Dreams actions.

Well said Matt. The various extremely conflicting circumstances created a created an air of doubt no matter where one looked. Dream succeded at galvanizing a terrible image of himself through the totality of his actions at face value. Everything put together looked awful. Then on the other side of the coin, your interview showed the human side of Dream. His responses were filled with passion, and what may well have been sincerity. An immensely stark contrast from the packaged situation as a whole. The only logical conclusion is exactly the route that you took, acknowledging that you were not an expert and your human instincts were telling you something was off. Extremely commendable. Also, very interesting to note the timing of the interview with you. He was essentially in his damage control phase, and was around or just before the time he began walking his conviction back. Theoretically, you were speaking to a man who could have easily passed a lie detector on a subject. While at the same time being completely demonstrably guilty. What a fascinating thought.

Learning most, if not all, of the details in this situation has brought me some peace; not because I cared about anyone or anything to do with the 'controversy,' but because Dream's response reminded me of my brother. He takes the truth, and twists it to make it sound better for himself. If someone else is even remotely close to suggesting they are wrong, or did something wrong, they act as if the world is against them, and use that truth twisting skill to (try to) turn the world back on them. This Dream deal is old news at this point, but I just wanted to let you know that you really nailed the objective, 3rd-party perspective in this, and subsequently helped me overcome a barrier I felt with my brother's defensive, deflective, petty, and pointless pointless yapping. I hate feeling like I'm walking on eggshells with my brother, but I just can't come to hate him. We are all human, and make mistakes. Old habits are hard to shake. While the behavior suggests malicious intent, it often is not. In fact, I might go out on a limb and say it comes from a spoiled upbringing that felt cut short when all the love you have seems to turn toward someone else. I am in fact the second child in our family. We'd fight a lot as kids, and I didn't understand what he was so angry about half of the time. Even now, I can't figure out if he's just *looking* for things to complain about in general or not 😂 All that said, when he's not focusing on every minute detail in life that's oddly upsetting, which feels less frequent than it is, we do have understanding, informative, interesting, fun, and ultimately pointless conversations with no stress. I know that was a long-winded wall of text, that nobody on the internet needed to hear. I don't expect anyone to care, not even Karl. I just wanted to say, on the off chance you see this, Karl, thanks for doing this kind of work. I may never truly understand why people do anything, especially when it blows up in their face. However i feel one step closer to understanding idiots like that for better or worse. Really helps when trying to understand people. Aspergers makes that harder for me, after all 😅 Also, your investigative journalism is typically pretty thorough, so at this point, I think you're a trustworthy source for information. 😊

17:45 "Honestly it was probably sheer luck that someone ended up being crazy enough to study his streams and collate the data, and it wasn't until several days later that the speedrunner MinecrAvenger posted his findings." Now that we have the added subplot of MinecrAvenger ALSO being a cheater, there is definitely enough sheer drama and intrigue in this insane story for Jobst to go back and make a full 90 minute documentary on the full thing from start to finish. In my honest opinion, this has been one of the most interesting stories of cheaters in the history of competitive sports... seems as though nothing in life is a coincidence.

Looking at things from the perspective of hindsight, and in your comfortable armchair isn't really helpful. We shouldn't assume that people will act in the most rational and logical way, we also need to consider that he thought he was innocent and thought he was being falsely accused. Nobody likes being falsely accused and it could lead to emotional responses/actions. The moderators also left out key information in the DM's between themselves and Dream which likely would've frustrated him and caused him to make hasty decisions.

It is interesting that Dream is given so much grace about not knowing he cheated, but when other people obviously don't know as much information as Karl does, instead of giving them the same grace, they are considered to be lying. Also, in academia, if you cheat or plagiarize, whether intentional or by accident, it doesn't matter and you can still get kicked out.

Karl has opinions on how people should be responsible with their platforms that are, in my opinion, more than a little loftier than they should be, basically that spreading lies from liars is complicity in those lies catching on. This is evident in his videos on Todd Rogers’s many lies about his “Dragster” score and his initial video about Heritage Auctions/WATA Games as well. That being said, he applies the same standards to Dream as he did to the various KZbin commentator channels, so that alleviates a lot of my misgivings about that bias.

His concern is how most people, famous or not, will read a couple sentences on a situation and immediately regurgitate that as undeniable fact to whoever happens to see their videos or comments. Even worse is when these same people will attempt to dive deep into the situation as if they suddenly became experts in the subject matter. Karl attempts to learn as much as he can whenever he reports on events. He may get stuff wrong but at least he tries. Most other people won't try at all aside from a sentence or two from another unreliable source. Dream is given some grace in this situation because he's the victim and Karl feels like his actions are understandable regardless if those actions were correct. Note the fact that Karl explicitly states multiple times that Dream is still the bad guy here. Most other people won't be the victim in the same events that they report on.

In summary, he definitely considered the possibility thoroughly, but had reason to think that the mods were biased and that he hadn't cheated. Hindsight's 20/20, it's extremely naive/ignorant to just say "oh, he should have considered it more" after the fact. He did as much as he could, given that information was being withheld from him by his dev- he decompiled stuff, told them about the content mod and what he thought would/wouldn't be affected IF it was in use, etc. Considering it more beyond that would seem unreasonable at that time, though obv not in hindsight.

Dream deleting his mod folder out of frustration does sound like something a guilty person would do when caught. If I recall, Dream has ADHD, like me, which means that he also deals with emotional regulation issues meaning he doesn't deal with frustration well which can cause meltdowns. When I was younger, I had real bad meltdowns when I couldn't understand math homework. My initial response to being frustrated was to crumple up the evidence, throw it away, and then hide and cry. A lot of that was due to be being embarrassed and attempting to hide my shame from others. Since then, I've learned a lot of coping mechanisms which helps me to deal with frustration differently and I recognize that hiding my errors wasn't helping me to grow as a person. Reading Dream say he deleted everything out of frustration, shows me that Dream didn't know how to navigate this situation when confronted and decided to get rid of the evidence out of shame and embarrassment. Not to mention that he could have taken his computer to any computer repair store where they could have recovered that mod file (depending on how long the file was deleted) so he could submit it. But Dream wasn't thinking clearly, he was caught doing something bad and his first response was to get rid of it and hide. His admission of cheating was also odd. Instead of saying, "I cheated through my speedrun using mods. That was wrong, and I apologize." Dream rage quits speedrunning and tried to make himself a victim by saying "he unknowingly played using mods". Part of growing up is realizing your own short comings. Not noticing mods were on before speedrunning was still Dream's responsibility. He could have had other people check behind him to vouch his own work so it's not acceptable to say he unknowingly played with mods. The phrasing implies Dream sees himself as an innocent party in this situation. I don't have any strong feelings toward Dream. I have noticed how he handles himself in situations is underdeveloped. He has gotten significantly better here recently, which I will applaud, but I understand why people perceived him as a manipulative liar. His inability to deal with stressful circumstances and defaulting to framing himself as a victim to avoid frustration does look manipulative and deceptive.

Dream often has this attitude, which is likely behind the fact that his fanbase is reduced to fans that agree with him in any situation, and have often been accused of bullying others (including other creators) in Dream's name. This is still his attitude, and that will always be his obstacle, unless he learns to be humble and listen to others. It is a level of maturity that he has not achieved, and maybe due to his quick rise in fame due to the creativity and talent of the many smaller streamers working together in his private server that brought it to the spotlight. He also grew up in some degree of isolation at home, first bc of struggling with ADHD in school, second during the Corona lockdown. All of this is bound to affect how a child/teenager grows up :/ In the end... It never should have been about all of these explanations, which few people will even understand (or have time to), anyway. It was always only about his attitude, unfortunately...

It's hard to think he was fully unaware of the situation. I can understand he doing those speedruns while unaware about the drop rates, but after it blew over it's simply unreasonable to think he wouldn't immediately connect it to some mod in his game. He is a content creator, constantly shuffling around mods, even commissioned a mod for his team. Hindsight is 2020, and I wouldn't say it's fair to expect him to have a clean install of minecraft each time he wants to do a speedrun, but let me put it like this: - If you're into PC building, your PC is working fine, you swap your GPU, use it for a few weeks and suddenly your PC starts to show weird behavior, even if not graphical related one of the first things that will pop in your head is the GPU. Maybe it got a bad driver, maybe Windows Updated fucked it up, maybe it shorted, maybe it's not plugged correctly or has some specific bug with another component. Of course this might not be the top of your list of possibilities, but it would be willful ignorance to not even consider it. "oh but the mods had nothing to do with drop rates as far as he was aware" Sure, but still. He wasn't adding a texture pack, there mods helping with pretty low level stuff such as loading times. In a game as complex as this, it's very easy for any piece of code to have unexpected bugs, specially if you're also running a mod commissioned by your and that only your team runs and bug testing is fairly limited. Hey, maybe the mod or any of the other mods in it messes up the load order on some data and now a bunch of things have different drop rates. It's definitely not out of the realm of possibility. The fact that Dream didn't even entertain this possibility, at least to me, tells me either he is completely unaware about anything computer related, which clearly isn't the case, or he thought about this possibility, likely at an early stage, and decided to play dumb to see if he can beat the allegations.

Did you watch the first fifteen minutes of the video? Mod =/= plugin.

@@zionj104 I think YOU didn't watch the video. First, DREAM denied everything. When he was caught and couldn't deny anymore, he claimed it was a PLUGIN. Plugins are server sided and so wouldn't affect his single player run. Then it came to light that he also had a MOD he commissioned and only he and his team used. This mod did alter drop rates but he was unaware, supposedly. The original intentional with the mod was adding some content creation tools and help with loading times. Even if Dream did not know about this hidden feature, it is just too much to claim that he, who changes mods all the time and paid for tailor made ones, would not even entertain the possibility that a mod in his folder caused the issue.

Let's put it this way, at least, this is how I see it. Best case scenario. Dream gets unbelievably lucky, gets investigated, tries to defend himself with attacks and anonymous third parties, goes quite, comes back with cherry picked half truths and more attacks. Worst case scenario. Dream cheats and lies about it, gets investigated, tries to defend himself with attacks and anonymous third parties, goes quite, comes back with cherry picked half truths and more attacks. Most of the disgusting, hurtfulness of the whole endeavor actually has very little to do with the cheating. That was just the topic. The starting gun. What actually was disgusting was how Dream handled everything post investigation. At this point, whether Dream cheated or not is irrelevant. He should be removed for his attitude and selfishness alone. He, himself, openly admits that speedrunning isn't something he needs to do, so he shouldn't care that much about being removed from it. Yet he endlessly attacks and attacks and deflects any fault from himself onto others. Maybe, he's grown some. Or maybe he just learned how to word his bs into more palatable ways. Either way, the fact he has not outright said "I cheated. I'm sorry. I won't do it again. I hope we can move on." without aggrandizing himself or attacking someone else is unsportsmanlike enough for me to say kick him, block him, use him as a cautionary tale. Unless he has actually done a real apology and, more importantly, followed through on it, that's my take.

The difference with the statistics expert (as somebody who deals with statistics in the social and behavioral sciences), is that your credibility is *everything*. Sure, people use their consulting groups and such for credit work, but that's after those firms have built up a reputation. When I was doing my studies, even though I was with an accredited group, we would still have "Written and Compiled by: Insert Author Name Here" at the end of it. I trust you, so having heard that you saw the person's name and checked credentials, I believe they're an accredited individual. But I don't think people were wrong (Critikal for example) in their opinions because they were 100% valid, as a person in that field I had the same questions they did because it seemed to break a fair amount of standards that we use.

So there's definitely room for that to be a possibility, and I 100% see the dilemma that the Statistician was in, but it's unfortunately part of the job. It's something I was prepped for in university, it's kind of like how fireman are inherently going to be in danger of fire no matter what they do (though there are steps they can take to lessen certain aspects of the danger, it'll always be there). Just like with this, when you're a scientist (of which a Statistician would count, of course) you're always going to run the risk of public outcry. Ironically enough, the very people we're trying to help (the public) are often the first ones to come for our heads if the data doesn't tell the story they want.

Formatting a document in LaTeX doesn’t make it legit, and since no one looking in on the situation from the outside has the info to verify who wrote the doc or what their relationship was to anyone involved, it’s absolutely valid to dismiss everything about it, even now. And it obviously isn’t anyone else’s responsibility to track down this info on their own. It’s great to be in a position in life where doing this level of research on, let’s just say, quite niche topics, is beneficial to ones work, but I think the average person is being perfectly reasonable by assuming that anonymous paper wasn’t on the up and up and moving on with their day.

The issue of whether Dream INTENTIONALLY cheated or not is inconsequential. Why? Because any other speed runner would be immediately banned for submitting a cheated run. The only reason Dream is receiving special treatment is due to his large subscriber base.

You can accidentally murder someone, but that does not prevent you from being punished for it.

"I have never seen somebody like that." I have and I've studied what is commonly referred to as sociopathy ever since. To be clear up front, sociopath is not a legit term. That's a layman's term that gets bandied around like it's a scientific term, but it really isn't. What we call sociopathy is really a set of behaviors that aren't actually associated with any specific mental disorder, though quite a few of them tick the narcissistic personality disorder. However, NPD does not require some of the traits we associate with sociopathy to get diagnosed. I bring this up because it is important to point out this difference. A person can behave like a sociopath without actually having a diagnosable mental illness. Some people are just really practiced liars and firmly divorce the rest of the world from the things they care about. There's nothing, if I may use a loaded and inaccurate term for the sake of brevity, "wrong" with them, they're just assholes. But let me say, in the case of people who are like this, there are some common tells. 1. People like this are arrogant as all hell. They often can't just deny that they did anything wrong, they often then go on to pose hypothetical situations wherein what they are accused of isn't wrong anyway, because they seem have a compulsive need to justify themselves, even when they know no one else will accept their justification. 2. They also feel the need to do things that reveal their lies within what they do for the personal satisfaction of knowing they're so charismatic and so smart that they can do things in plain sight and get away with it. Often times, they're such polished liars that even if you notice the discrepancies, you dismiss the in the moment because the individual is so charming that you just can't believe it means anything. However, once it comes out and you see them for what they are, all the little tells come back and you realize how bad they were all along. Once revealed, a sociopath's lies seem so obvious in retrospect that you often hate yourself for being so stupid as to believe them. This I know from experience, as I once overlooked the obvious tells that a close friend was being abused behind closed doors for at least two whole years before everything came out. It hurts to think back on. 3. There's another one that often comes up when such people run businesses. They often mock their clients by naming their company after the opposite thing they're doing. For example,, the company that claimed to be giving people free and easy access to stock trading, even though they were selling their client's data to the big stock traders they were pretending to fight against named themselves "Robin Hood", while Donald Trump named his social media platform "Truth Social." 4. These people usually deny to their dying breath in the face of irrefutable evidence that they did anything wrong. They never confess and you cannot drag the truth out of them. It is really something else to watch them do this. To be clear, this is just my studies and observations. They are not scientific and have nothing to do with the diagnosis of any mental disorder. They're just things I've noticed. The absence of them also does not prove anything either. But since you asked, that's my position. I didn't watch enough of Dream's content before this to tell a lot, so you'll have to draw your own conclusions and decide for yourself if what I present here is valid. 1. Did Dream try to defend what he was being accused of as well as deny that he did it? This one, from what's presented, seems to be no. This doesn't mean anything because, while I say this is usually what they do, it's not universal, just shockingly common. No, Dream doesn't appear to defend what he's being accused of, just deny that he did it. At least up front. 2. Did he have obvious lies before now that become obvious with the benefit of hindsight? I don't watch enough of Dream's content to be sure and am not sure if it would necessarily show up in his content anyway, so this point may be useless. 3. Is Dream's company (or youtube channel) based on something that's the opposite of what he's doing? Not in any way that I can see. Dream is a pretty abstract concept that can mean a lot of things, but none of them connect to the type of deception going on here? 4. Is he still refusing to acknowledge it? No, it seems he did eventually come clean even if it took him months. So, since it's come up, from my limited knowledge of Dream and my admittedly unscientific observations of what is not an accepted mental disorder, is he a sociopath? I'm gonna say no. I'll go a step further and say he doesn't strike me as NPD either, but I don't know his private life and that's where most of the symptoms would reveal themselves. Also, I'm not a psychologist - just someone who dropped out of the psychology program after two years and therefore has some basic foundational knowledge of how it works - so I'm not qualified to diagnose anything. But I'm fairly certain a real psychologist would agree with my reading. Do I think he intentionally cheated? My answer is that I don't care anymore. I only barely cared to begin with. I'm not a speedrunner, so I don''t consider myself as having the right to form a strong opinion of the matter. The mods evidence is clear, he's admitted it, the speedrun is removed, he's not attempting to speedrun anymore. The situation seems pretty resolved and I don't see why I should care now. So, why am I leaving a lengthy comment more than a year after the fact? Because I think we can all do with a bit more perspective. I think it's a real problem that people insist that other people form opinions about things beyond their scope of knowledge, interest, and authority. Dream is a guy who plays games and uploads videos of doing so to youtube. He's not running for public office, he's not running a major financial corporation, he doesn't even have a lot of influence over any particular thing that matters. I think it's okay not for some people not to care, so can we please stop blowing things out of proportion? We probably made the situation worse by doing so. Also, to be clear, I think the quality of this video speaks well of Karl. It's level headed, makes attempts to be as objective as possible (bias is impossible to do away with, but an effort is being made), does not seek to defame or accuse anyone involved, and is also pretty well organized in its presentation. I feel like if I ever needed it, I could trust him to do a good job on something like this, provided it was within his area of expertise. Which this seems to be for all I know. But I'm not an expert speedrunning, so I don't think I'd know even if he was completely talking out his ass. I'm simply making this assumption based on the way he describes his approach and how he presents the information. Well done there. Would that we all could do this well when observing and reporting controversy.

This is an amazingly intuitive response, not wonder Karl hearted it. As someone who's not like, obsessed with Dream, but does consistently watch his content and has seen enough of his speedrun content and social media history to provide some insight, I can answer some questions. 1. Dream never defended that cheating should be perfectly fine. However he has claimed that speedrunning that specific version of Minecraft is stupid multiple times and hates the RNG, even going as far as to say he was going to stop speedrunning 1.16 (which he did after the drama). It's not quite the same and to me I don't think it lines up enough with the scandal in hindsight to actually mean anything, but make of it what you will. 2. Obvious lies. Yes and no. As Karl says in the video, Dream doesn't straight up lie, but he often exaggerates and tells half truths. Did he say any blatant lies? There only appear to be a couple possible examples, such as the math he was given on his luck stats being way off, or that the mods were using bias in the speedruns they picked out to determine his luck. It's questionable, and they're mixed amidst other lies that are just exaggerating things the mods actually did wrong, as well as misinformation that it appears Dream genuinely believed from the statistician he hired. Basically, some of the lies may be obvious in hindsight, but they sound more like lies from a desperate man rather than a sociopath. And I think your paragraph about people being made to think they need to have opinions over something they don't fully understand is very true. In the end it doesn't matter that much, and if we don't really know the answer, why attack people for it?

@ your point about sociopathy: You mentioned NPD, which is a cluster-B disorder with some overlap, then said that there is no mental disorder associated with psychopathy and sociopathy, failing to mention the existence of the other three cluster-B types. I'm not particularly sure why NPD is the one that stood out to you. While there's some debate surrounding the layman terms in question, they are not only strongly associated, but also very often used as synonyms or subsets of ASPD. Short for antisocial personality disorder, this cluster-B disorder is recognized by the DSM-V and is a valid, existing diagnosis. Disclaimer: I am not a psychologist either; just someone who's been self-educating in these topics for as long as I can remember, as I have a cluster-B disorder (among many others) myself.
