[@certifiedteriyaki9372]

Well it‘s not THAT true. There are alot of extreme demons but also alot of normal levels which are gorgeous. The problem is that they are SO overdecorated, it‘s impossible to play normally. You gotta memorize AND have skill.

[@kol8214]

Sakupen circles got verified

[@electroraptor71]

Yeah and another problem is with all of the levels these days looking exceptional the standard of levels has been raised so much that if you make a decent looking level or a normal level it won't even get rated it has to look really cool which takes so much effort and time.

[@killianretterer398]

This video is amazing, going back and seeing all the history on this really shows how much skill we have gained since then.

[@b26awesome]

I don’t know if it’s my ego talking, but I want to mention I had 81% on SW and 28 - 100 before Sunix verified it and it was definitely considered for a period of time that there was a race between Sunix and I. I felt pretty good about that and still think about it with pride. He was much more well known at the time and made a lot more consistent progress though. So I understand if it didn’t get a spotlight.

[@gmdblue]

If the videos were public, then we made a mistake there.

[@Lation]

This was insane. I was a part of the community when all of this happened, and this was the most insane race that has ever happened. Shame the race to beat Tartarus wasn't near the same. I remember there being a huge shock when Deam became the first victor. While he was a high-level player, he was still unknown to the community and was heavily suspected of being a hacker. I remember everyone being surprised that he even beat it as it came from seemingly left field. See, he never really had the reputation that he has now. He was still an up-and-comer, and this solidified his space in GD folklore. I feel that this was the peak of the game.
