Copying a CD doesn't give you a modded .bic file.
And yes, most software used outside the US is a pirated copy. Not ALL, but about 95% or so. While in Turkey, there was even a few places I saw on the street selling software and movies for ridiculously low prices, like $2 - $5 apiece for stuff that just came out. They even went to the trouble to reproduce the CD labels, but you didn't get any kind of manual, and you got it in a baggy or shrink-wrap. Not ragging on Turkey or any other country, but this is a well known, well publicized problem with the overseas market.
It has nothing whatsoever to do with whether this guy cheated, though.
He has been given a ton of opportunity to speak on his own behalf, and has elected to say nothing more than "I'm innocent", which hardly proves anything. All the experts agree that he could not possibly have done what he did without using a cheat. Most likely Powerbar, to keep a modded .bic from showing up, and because I don't think anything else works with 1.29f.
