However, Donkey Kong Forum, a community-run leaderboard, did not accept the score because the forum's high score moderator, Jeremy Young, claimed that although Lakeman achieved his record legitimately, Lakeman's true intention was to gain an unfair advantage.

Despite widespread support for the score from the community, Young did not accept it, stating that "it's more important to me to do the right thing than it is to do the popular thing." Community members have disputed Young's decision, arguing that the use of hardware modifications did not give Lakeman an unfair advantage and that the score should be accepted.
