What happens when one of the most competitive and popular speedrunning games gets a cheated run accepted onto the leaderboards?
I just want to note that this is not a drama video! This cheated world record occurred over a year and a half ago, everything here is presented purely for your entertainment, not to "expose" anyone, so please be respectful to any individuals mentioned in the video!

This video is not an actual speedrun world record, nor a speedrun tutorial. This video is a showcase/storytelling of a cheated world record speedrun, explaining the competition, context, and cheating methodology that went into creating the cheated speedrun, so that the viewer can best understand the situation. This video is very similar to my "How Speedrunners Skip..." videos, but with a storytelling twist.
I used a new microphone this video! My old blue yeti broke so I purchased an AKG P220. I'm still getting used to it, and this mic picks up a bit more background noise than I'm used to. Sorry if you hear any background noise!

mans played ram ranch with a giant bird blocking the screen and no game audio, and tried to pass it off as a wr. That seems more like a joke than a legitimate cheating attempt

My guess is an attempt to get the rules changed by making something that obviously breaks what should be rules but aren't. He even called attention to the berries thing in the title and by going out of his way to collect a berry that's otherwise not easy to just run into accidentally.

The bird part is understandable. If I remember correctly Archie the bird belongs to someone who invented a new technique that consist of entering a green bubble in crouched position to keep the crouched hitbox while in the bubble. This allows you to go through tighter spaces. They named the technique after the bird for some reason.

He purposely sent the run in through backdoors, using one of his mod friends to get it verified instantly without anyone actually verifying it. He knew what he was doing. It's not the mods' fault, except for the one that was his friend he used to push his run through. I hope that mod got removed.

- Timer turned off - In-game audio muted, 28 minutes of Ram Ranch instead - VERY eye-drawing PNG of a bird blocking the save icon - Went out of his way to not collect the speedrun-required berry and instead collect a different berry, named the file 2_berries to draw attention to the berries themselves - Had never submitted a run before, hasn't submitted a run since, despite his legitimate runs being quite good The idea that people even believe this guy was actually seriously trying to get away with this is laughable. He probably pulled this shit just to point out the rules that he thought were too lenient, which they were, absolutely. Seriously, blocking the save icon, turning off the in-game audio and turning off the timer weren't things that were ruled out?! A person that wasn't pointing a neon sign at themselves could've easily annihilated the leaderboard without issue under these rules. The fact that this meme run wasn't technically breaking the rules should've been an embarrassment for the mods.

Really surprised the investigation didn’t point out the ram ranch usage as evidence. A common way to detect splices (originally coined in SM64 iirc) is to check the audio for cuts, something that’s hard to do without specialized software. Muting the game audio and placing ram ranch over it would make the audio smooth and thus make splices harder to track.

⁠@@JaggerG It is evidence, that’s exactly what circumstantial evidence is. Even if you have suspicious red stains and dna on clothes you get caught trying to burn it technically doesn’t prove anything. An undisputedly foul-played person in the trunk of your car… still circumstantial. The popular tv or KZfaq commenter line is “but all the evidence is circumstantial”… even though I’d wager that maybe even over half of convictions for things like murder are done with any non-circumstantial evidence. For something to be non-circumstantial, it has to have no other possible explanation, however unlikely, assuming that the evidence is legitimate; such as a video of someone clearly committing the crime. Pretty much anything you can think of is just some level of suggestion… and that’s alright.

Considering the Ram ranch song and the intentional obstructions of areas of the screen that previously should have been verified I feel like Pheonix4k was intentionally harrassing the speed running community in order to enforce what he thought was effective rules. The mistake with the berries and the loading icon and the sound all add up to someone who was disgruntled about previous speed runs not having enough scrutiny.

The mods of Celeste have already confirmed this was almost definitely not the reason he did so. He lied about plenty of other petty things unrelated to this, along with other reasons one of the mods mentioned in a different comment here. Plus, he could always just tell the mods to make the rules stricter, especially considering he was in constant contact with at least one of them. Also, the video with the bird and meme music wasn't the video he originally showed the mod he submitted it to. He originally sent the mod he's friends with the original, unedited video (which had in game music and no obstructions). The mod watched it, told him it was okay, but then when he actually entered his submission on the leaderboards, he linked to the meme version. So basically, he showed one mod he was friends with (or was at least in contact with) the true, unedited run. Once that mod watched it, he uploaded the other version, to avoid any other mods from catching on. That way, it would be harder for any other mods to notice, and if anyone asked, one mod saw the unedited version and verified it. Basically just took advantage of that one mod not doing a good job and then made it even harder for the rest of the mods to do theirs, but it didn't work out for him. The guy 100% wanted to get away with it.

as a speedrun mod for celeste who was a part of this situation first hand, i wouldn't really say that. he kind of just got caught up in a series of escalating lies - he claimed multiple IL records in some of the longest (most difficult) chapters in the game with no video proof, got multiple PBs he refused to share splits for, and random petty lies like that. he was still very good at the game and was a WR capable player, so a lot of top players started kind of hyping up his grind and i think he felt like he had to deliver. also worth mentioning that calling the run verified is a stretch, but it's kind of a mess - basically he sent the video to one mod (who was a good buddy of his) and they immediately verified the runs on the board, and the discrepancy in summit was found in under 30 minutes when another mod had a chance to watch the video. i think he didn't really expect the run to make it on the boards ngl, and when it did end up on the boards shit went down

It only really is noticed in between levels since the timer uses in game time and pauses on the main level select screen.

No HUD, a giant bird PNG, extreme meme music playing, the title pointed to the berry discrepancy, the only berry he collected was way out of your speedrun way. The player never submit runs and when he does he delete later, he also have a run with the time of the meme one but doesn't care to submit it. Some people are pointing that he send an unedited version first to a friend MOD, but the one to be put in the leaderboards still is the meme one. The MODs now talk shit of the players, but wouldn't be the first time MODs try to downplay a single player to clean their own hands. He may as well have cheated on all the runs he submitted in the past trying to get caught, but since he never was he just delete the run and try again. This may have been his last-ditch effort to be caught, and YET he got verify. This whole thing sound to me like a pro player making a troll run to screw with the MOD team, I don't know if it was to change the rules, to point the incompetence of the MODs, or just to troll. But what I know is that the player is not someone I would call a "cheater".

"But this event essentially ended his career..." no it didn't. He didn't HAVE a speed running "career", a point you laboured at the start of the video. Like, if a recreational marathon runner irl, one day out of the blue joined the Olympics... And then took steroids in front of the Olympics headquarters... And then passed a drug test while wearing a shirt that said "I ❤️ steroids" and playing "But then I got high" on a boombox... And then at the race, in full view of everyone, got into a taxi to the finish line... And then posed for photos with the taxi driver which he captioned on instagram with "taxi finish"... And then the race officials gave him a medal... And then serious olympians FINALLY said "hold on officials, are you for real?" a few days later... If all that happened, he wouldn't be "ending his career as an Olympic athlete". It would be clear that he had no interest in the Olympics. This dude literally didn't care about the leaderboards or "virtual trophies" (cringe way to put it by the way) or "a career". He clearly just liked playing the game fast, and saw a chance to play a prank while maybe improving things for those who actually believe "career" is a valid term for speed running. It's ridiculous to frame it as "ending a career": before this, he played alone, largely unknown, rarely if ever submitting to the leaderboards. And after this, he plays alone, largely unknown, rarely if ever submitting to the leaderboards... Not a thing has changed for him. He's not been permabanned (and even if he had been, it wouldn't affect him), he's not lost some audience, he's not lost friends or a livelihood. I'm not saying he should have lost anything, just saying that it can hardly be called losing a "career" if nothing actually changes.

I really don't feel like he had any intentions of trying to pass this off as a legitimate speedrun, or even publish his world records in general. It seems like, based on his history, he doesn't really care at all about the leaderboards or how he places on them. It feels like he cares much more about his own personal records and self-satisfaction than about how he compares to others. And as many other comments have said, that submitted run appears to be the most blatantly obvious fake he could've made. The obnoxious music, the lack of any in-game timer, and the random green bird in the corner make this appear to be a complete troll, and in the end the people who really look like the idiots are the speedrun moderators who let this run pass in the first place.

The background music is about a bunch of cowboys banging in a barn while a giant bird takes a massive part of the screen, if anyone needs more clues to know if that was fake then i feel sorry for them. Mind you i have never heard about celeste before but damn, that was almost a 4chan level shitpost.

The moment I heard that it had ram ranch playing the entire time, I knew this run had to be a meme. There's no way anyone does that on a speed run they care about, and a 7 second improvement on a world record is a really big deal that a runner would definitely be proud of. That they didn't immediately realize that this was a joke submission is actually insane. How could you not see that this was a benevolent act?
