I’m happy that the community feels satisfied with this ending. I’m not sure I buy it, though.
I’ve seen every move in this level be completed. I think it’s incredibly difficult but still possible. Based on everything I’ve seen from the creator recently this seems more like an attempt to get people to shut up about it to me.

I understand how you feel. But you have to keep in mind:
Mario Maker 1 requires a creator to beat their level in order to upload it to the servers. The creator did not beat the level, so it’s an “illegitimate upload” (as team 0% is putting it).
It definitely seems possible to beat, but for team 0% goals, I understand the decision

The creator says they didn’t beat it. I’m saying that based on their history, I actually think they are lying right now to get people to stop bothering them
They reportedly were highly addicted to SMM around the time they uploaded this level, having messed up aspects of their lives. They wanted to be left alone about this whole situation but the Internet doesn’t let things like that happen.
Saying it was a TAS is the easiest way to get everybody to stop playing the level and hopefully stop the discussion 2 weeks sooner.
I’m happy Team 0% is satisfied with the conclusion. I’m just skeptical, especially considering nobody knew about TAS’s existing for the game near that window.
