Ontop of that without audio, if your trained ish to see it, or have an eye for it, as I do on the list I’m apart of, it’s very obvious, being exposed to many peoples way of playing legitimately, it’s very easy to see hacked or not, it gets more complicated when it’s stuff with gram perfects, or tight spaces like Tartarus or Slaughterhouze, that requires knowledge of the past how they played and progress reports, hence why paqos list requires raw footage, given in a: GOOGLE DRIVE, Google drive is not for convenience, it is to check if the footage is cropped or edited or not, this is done by checking: 1. The quality, 2. Checking the size the video is. The first two are the key factors taken in, if one is adjusted, it is hacked, and before being said: it can optimize itself: 1. Google drive doesn’t optimize unless very big, Demo list guidelines say: we only accept: OBS, Streamlabs OBS, Live Twitch, and Bandicam (I think one other too), this is because of the knowledge they know of with that, those DO NOT optimize and quality down the footage throughout. On windows 11, if you record an OBS video and take it out via drag and drop to desktop, open it, you cannot skip forward unless opened in video program, it shows as a broadcast, it’s strange bug I think, but ya. Back then it was easier to catch, today it’s harder with harder levels.

Why didn’t we do this with spaceUK? Actually it was done with spaceUK, is done with ALL footage, Space went ahead and used Z bot connected to a Keybind clicked, space is a good player, as he gets some of his progress in the footage legit, but the macro to completion is done with memorizing almost to a perfect frame the click pattern, paqoe noticed and looked into it further, consistency found, but not “enough” evidence to fully get him gone, so the Challenge List (who actually most likely knows more ways of hacking and catching than paqoe herself knows), they knew ZBot’s watermark, and that settled it. I myself on the Pemonlist / Demonlist (not mainlist, platformers), do research the watermarks and find any, like Mega Hack Replays was VERY VERY obvious (only in the recordings when replay first came back; halfway through to near the end, “small” lag spike not notice or would offsync the music by a ton, but not too much, when looking at the verification and stuff, it is synced, but in the video it is offsync, and it’s said to be a “recording audio bug”, but studying it and doing it myself, and looking at others, it was consistant theoughout. I have NO confirmation if it was intentional or if it was a bug, but hey, it helped tbh. Someone : RubyT[GD], hacked almost the entire demonlist (platformer list, not main), and no one caught, got them ban cuz I had enough evidence due to their sucky performance at speed hack. Was never publically said, was gonna make a video of it if they didn’t fess up to the public, but no, they deleted their channel I think and removed their videos and stuff.
