Sounds like a bunch of whiny cry babies pointing fingers out of jealousy. Maybe he used MAME, maybe he used an original machine. There's no doubt to me the guy achieved the score on SOMETHING. If it's discovered it was in MAME, fine, change the record to show MAME. I just don't see why it's such a big deal. If he's so great anyway, why put up such a smear defense? Get Guinness down their with a legit machine and have him do it again. If he doesn't do as good, so be it. Let his new score stand as the new record. If somebody beat him, that's just the way the game goes. Carrying on about it doesn't accomplish anything more than discredit you. I've got some good scores in our competition, but they're not great. If somebody beats me, I pat them on the back, not go and try to prove they cheated or anything. Granted TG/etc is a higher scale world-world platform, but still. You have to follow the established rules. If you misrepresented yourself, you have nobody to blame for getting kicked out/off except yourself.
