Replays from the aliases "gabmilleam", "axilystyf" and any associated should not be included. This person is a known cheater and has already attempted to deceive the community with falsified scores.

Disclaimer

This video index is handled more like a scoreboard than an archive. Replays with a lower score than a player's PB are removed if they don't meet certain criteria. We are looking into including a 'legacy' section to include all runs that don't meet these criteria.

Editing Guidelines

When adding a replay to a section that utilizes tabs, please make sure you add the replay to each tab associated with the weapons used.
