Sooo... what you're saying is that you can't get sub 18 without Escorts and that you didn't want to grind 4 Devices? If only there was a way for you to avoid having to grind 4 Devices without making the core mechanics of the game itself any easier...

Nice post bullet. Very long and full of formatting.
Sorry about the length. I could've went back and got the actual links to the posts but that would require effort rather than quoting a few posts whilst reading through this BS.

Without taking this comment too seriously, given the context in which it was said, it's a statement that goes quite nicely in tandem with aSmoothCriminalx's rather impressive post summarising how console players should view your achievement.
I watched your video when you posted it and was in the process of typing a simple 'congrats' post when things kicked off, so I just left it and then watched as this place descended into hell. Your video may be the most impressive gold solo I've ever watched, and has made me decide to respec my GI, who I've only ever played with a Javelin, in the hope that I might just once manage to take down an Atlas with my Talon as riotously as you do consistently, though it's only at level seven.
My definition of cheating is doing something which makes the game easier than it is intended to be, so in that regard, you clearly did not cheat, although I can understand the logic to an argument which says that running with the pizza makes it easier to stay alive than a tricky escort or device placement, so by extension you're possibly making the game 'easier' by always pre-selecting the pizza delivery. I don't go along with that though, because the issue here is obviously time, not difficulty. If I had a PC (and was rather more talented) I would do exactly what you did if I wanted to set the fastest time possible. It's really no different from setting glacier, cerberus or gold. Grinding games to finally end up with a three pizza one would certainly risk insanity, given that statistically there's only a one in sixty four chance of it happening. (edit: sorry, 1 in 125, I forgot there were 5 options. Thanks Geek Fest) Mind you, the chances of any player being at the absolute top of their game on that one rare occasion are even more unlikely, which is why there is some justification for the people who are dismissive of how you achieved your time. It can't really be ignored that you modded the game to go as quickly as possible when it was your primary objective to go as quickly as possible. Console players have no realistic hope of replicating your feat, through no fault of their own other than being console players.
While we're well used to being on the receiving end of 'scrub' putdowns, there are some of the 'elite' pc players on BSN who could really do with a hefty dose of humility and maybe a little graciousness. There may be nothing wrong with being an elite, but being an elitist makes you a w@nker. Our machines may be more stupid than yours, but it doesn't mean we are. I think Cato is the only person to post in this thread who I've ever played with (talking of elites who aren't elitist), so I think I'm pretty impartial - I don't know any of the rest of you and I know nothing of your cliques, rivalries and petty motivations, or which platforms you're on, but I think some of the abuse directed at QU33N_ANG3L is shocking. The pretentious patronising tone from people who think they know how to communicate more clearly than her is obscene. The last one to have a go then followed up with a post with a grammatical error. Oh, the irony.
Anyway, congrats OP on some superb gameplay.

Whilst I will openly admit to my error, it is not an uncommon one. Passively noting the difference between the fact that present perfect is used or not is a rarity, even when not using the internet; many people don't really think about such a minor detail even in every day life. I would go as far as to say that the use of "Have went" is at least as acceptable as "Have gone" in popular culture as the the word "literally" is used to mean "figuratively" (which led to the Oxford English Dictionary for some reason changing the meaning of literally to also mean figuratively...)
And besides, I have no problem with messy grammar or spelling on the internet. The reason I "had a go" at her was because of the fact that she herself argued against someone else, so adamant that she hadn't made any mistakes. Which strikes me as at least as uppity as I was being. Throw in the fact that she generally has a pretty bad attitude in general (including a relatively sexist view of how men should treat women...) and the fact that she, Cain and Zae all came into this thread with nothing but the intention of derailing it (which they successfully did) and I believe she should have been ready for the barrage. She was hardly attacked any more than Cain or Zae after all. And its not like she couldn't have walked away herself; her argument with Crash was going nowhere and yet she still insisted on trolling the thread rather than letting it get back on track.
Sure if she returned I would have instigated it, but if what she says is true, then she won't return as I've offered nothing more than objective evidence that she has indeed made grammatical errors and numerous spelling mistakes. And according to her the only reason she is replying is because people are attacking her opinion. To that end my post should do nothing more then get a few chuckles from the threads visitors and be forgotten about since, unless she proves herself a liar, she will just let this apparent attack on her slide.

If you indeed acknowledged your errors then just drop the subject and let it be. Why do you have to bring up an old video that was horribly misconstrued to draw more negative attention to her. You couldn't handle simply swallowing your own error and walking away now could you?

I did accept the error and let it drop, though I also defended the error.
The part about her attitude was more directed at the rest of tiwg's post that claimed she was getting too much hate in the thread. No thread has ever went following someone walking in and making hackusations or attacking someone for fixing the objectives, she had to have known that going in, as did you. To not expect any kind of negativity would have been foolish on her half. Especially after ten pages of an absolutely fruitless argument with crash (and no I'm not defending crash, even if he is my friend, he was still being just as ignorant at times...) And when you give people a presentation of yourself, your beliefs and your personality (or at least part of those three things), be it false or not, you can expect that backlash to double if they don't like what they observe.Its the internet; she's poking a whole lot of bears after coating herself in honey...

How can you defend an error that you openly admitted to committing. You blatantly attempted to justify your own wrong doing - not only that but in this context you brought up a totally irrelevant topic about her in an attempt to coat her with honey to attract the bears of bsn. You never dropped anything. You only pretended to by hypocritically acknowledging your error all whilst justifying yourself. Gee what's the name for that?LuckyBullet95 wrote...

You just said the name of it... And you can admit fault and still defend it. Like I said, it is an error but it is also an excusable one (as were Angel's had she not openly denied making any), though that is subjective. Maybe the other guy (sorry dude, it's half four in the morning, I don't have enough concentration to remember your name....) might disagree with me, but for now I'm content to leave it as a common real life mistake made on the internet, which is exactly what it is.
Also last I checked the bears were already here. It's exactly why the other guy is defending her... Now, I know brought the analogy up but can we please stop talking in terms of bears and honey. I actually feel a bit weird doing it in an actual conversation.

Modded or not, I think it is safe to say the majority of players couldn't pull that off in the same amount of time. When you watch the video you can clearly tell it is a matter of skill and knowledge of how to play the game. That is what I see anyway.
