PvtCb has had run-ins with the GDQ staff in the past for saying some shady things on twitter (joking about a mass shooting -> https://twitter.com/PvtCinnamonbun/s...74980061147136)

The reason he was banned from this marathon still does not make sense. Cyberdemon531 (a friend of PvtCb who was also banned) doesn't have the best reputation in the speedrunning community, but it's for reasons that should be completely unrelated to the marathon. Both PvtCb and Cyberdemon were put on a zero-tolerance watchlist for "death threats on twitter" as they entered the marathon, just as they were last year. This sort of makes sense for PvtCb, but Cyberdemon has never made any such threats. It's clear they are just hopping on the bandwagon in hating Cyberdemon and any of his associates.

PvtCb said he was banned initially for wearing the MAGA hat on stream, but there was proof in the VOD that he did not ever put the hat on his head, it was actually Cyberdemon531. Cyberdemon recorded the conversation they had with staff when PvtCb's badge was confiscated, and PvtCb uploaded the video to his youtube channel and made a pastebin on it -> http://pastebin.com/9fSeDsXu

After the video and the pastebin went viral, PvtCb said staff made up different reasons for his ban just to keep him out. (Damaged PCs in the PC room, unplugging cables, things he claims he didn't do). Cyberdemon was later banned from the marathon for the MAGA hat. http://pastebin.com/52y1dkSa

Nothing else particularly major has happened yet, other than Cyberdemon getting told "Fuck you" in an elevator by someone, being pointed at across the hotel restaurant, and someone leaving a note outside his hotel room door saying something along the lines of "you deserved it".

I've known both PvtCb and Cyberdemon for over a year, and I personally don't think they deserve this kind of treatment. But it's better to wait until more details come out before making any assumptions.
