According to Claims that Rika's "friends", Rika had copyright strikes and was taken down. Then Rika claims they switched to NicoNico. Rika's "Room mate" claims he deleted his channel out of depression and sold his gaming equipment? I don't know. But Rika should never be allowed to Speedrun if it was my call. He is just another story of someone trying to cheat fame like many runners before them. Over all, its a damned shame because he was what inspired me to try doing high population.

Forgive if my Japanese is off. Congrats on your run. Hope your hands are okay. I feel bad that your legit run had to be ruined by some cheater that got what they deserved.. aka removed

To you dear sir, I say your SimCity Runs have to be legit, because I did as you did with some slight adjustments to the original Design of yours and managed to beat your population cap on the Freeland Map by 22,000 Populous. I have broke the 1,000,000 Population Barrier multiple times with your strats. Even then though, the runs still have to be put under scrutiny due to the accusations of Cheating in other games. Once labeled, it's hard to get rid of that label, even if you are innocent. I'm not being mean, or picking sides, however, I have seen your runs in Games Such as Tetris Attack/Panel de Pon and you did without a doubt, post TAS's without a care and thought no one would catch you. it is quite literally impossible to duplicate your Panel de Pon Feats.

Furthermore, there are multiple reasons why you could be put under scrutiny too for your SimCity Runs. For example, you never go into detail on how your methods work. I had to dig deep into old Forums on the wayback machine for the game SimCity 3000 for PC which had at one point, a Sub Section for the SNES game and SimCity Classic which had posts dating as early as 2007 about Glitches that involve abusing the the save and load functions with the Freeland Map in order to make your map have no affects due to pollution, max police coverage and basically infinitely high land value. You also ignored the please of the panel community to prove yourself live and made all the excuses.

Also the claim of 1,200 to 1,600 inputs per minute on an SNES controller is a downright lie. The Fastest Players with controller inputs are Smash Brothers Melee Pros and they average out between 100 to 250 inputs per minute. Fastest 940 by the Smash Player Armada doing Fast Fall L-Cancelled Back Airs. If you actually had this input speed, you would have to be using a Keyboard, and even then, you would be able to compete in Star Craft and League of Legends on the highest level and for a guy playing a Tetris Based game? I.d.k. Fastest Rollers can only make the SNES and NES hit 31hz but you are claiming to have almost 350hz in your control. Simply not possible.
