Sweet! Thanks for delving into this.

I don't think anyone is doubting the legitimacy of your run, so no need to do another one (in my opinion) unless you want to. It would be a cool proof-of-concept though if it works.

I'll second Don here: there was no doubt that your run was not legitimate. It was just a matter of finding the proper category out of fairness for you and others!

Thank you for your work on emulating these great games!
