== Early Goldeneye Career ==

Shortly after becoming a member, David achieved more of the common World Records such as [[Runway]] Secret Agent 0:23, [[Surface 1]] A 1:03 and [[Archives]] A 0:16. This was quickly followed by a pair of 55s ~~on SA/00 difficulty~~.

Shortly after becoming a member, David achieved more of the common World Records such as [[Runway]] Secret Agent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ol3eAP4lCQ 0:23], [[Surface 1]] Agent 1:03 and [[Archives]] Agent [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LaP0vjzV9M 0:16]. This was quickly followed by a pair of 55s the two harder difficulties.

The first sign that he was destined to push beyond the more widely obtained Records was after he completed [[Bunker 1]] 00 1:08 in January 2007. Only two other players ([[Jim Barrett]] and [[Ilari Pekkala]]) had posted this time previously, and only [[Bryan Bosshardt]] and [[Wouter Jansen]] had better. A month later he had tied Bryan and Wouter with 1:07.

In April of 2007, David achieved his first untied World Record, [[Surface 2]] 00 1:28, which remained unmatched for most of the year. Following this success, he went on to tie many of Bryan's personal records over the spring and summer, eventually obtaining several more untied WRs including Surface 2 SA 0:53 and Bunker 1 00 1:04.

After matching still more existing records towards the end of the year, David went on a spree in the winter, lowering times all over the place. He got ~~a pair of~~ Archives ~~54s on SA~~/00, [[Bunker 2]] SA 0:46 (2 second untied at the time), [[Aztec]] SA 1:38 (though he eventually got 1:36), Aztec 00 1:43 (no longer a WR or his PR), [[Control]] SA 4:10 (now 4:07), [[Caverns]] SA 1:20 and 00 1:37, [[Dam]] 00 1:57, Surface 2 00 1:26 and Bunker 1 SA 0:21.

The most accepted date on which David passed Bryan for first place is February 9th, 2008, when Boss made a [http://perfectdarkelite.yuku.com/topic/13452 topic] about this achievement. It is believed that the record which gave Clemens the upper edge was either [[Facility]] 00 Agent 0:54 or Surface 1 Agent 1:02, however since neither player was fully ranked during a large span of time due to their proof issues, it could have been any of Clemens' Personal Records between January 1 and March 1, 2008, which gave him first place.

Whilst David continued to rise past Bryan, so did [[Rayan Isran]]. These two are in constant competition, obtaining untied world records frequently, to which the other player will tie the record in only a few days. Some examples of this phenomenon are [[Silo]] Agent 1:02, Control 00 Agent 4:11, ~~Control~~ Secret Agent 4:07 and Surface 1 Agent 1:02.
