David Clemens
David Clemens is 21 years old and resides in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. He is presently the Goldeneye Champion. He is known throughout the Goldeneye community, not only for his remarkable play, but also for having a great amount of disrespect towards his competition, particularly including Rayan Isran, Ryan White and Wouter Jansen.
Early Goldeneye Career
David became very interested in speedrunning Goldeneye in 2006 after watching many World Record videos. He obtained Depot Agent 0:26 as his first WR and in late 2006 joined The Elite.
Shortly after becoming a member, he achieved more of the common WRs 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. The first sign that he was destined to push beyond the more widely obtained WRs was after he obtained Bunker 1 00 1:08. 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.
Rise up the Ranks
In April of 2007, David achieved his first untied World Record, which was Surface 2 00 1:28. This went untouched for the majority of 2007, until Henning Blom matched it in December, and shortly after beat it with an impressive 1:27.
Following Surface 2 00, David made a name for himself as he went on to tie a several of Bosshardt's personal records over the spring and summer, eventually achieving several other untied WRs including Surface 2 SA 0:53 and Bunker 1 00 1:04 which are still untied.
After tieing several more existing WRs towards the end of the year, David went on a spree in the Winter, untieing WRs all over the place. He got a pair of Archives 54s on SA/00, shortly after getting 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
His most recent and one of the most maxed WRs in GE, was Egyptian Agent 0:45.
Number One
Due to the recent increase in strictness towards the proof policy brought on by Ryan White (see: Goose#Controversy_and_Departure) and due to David Clemens and Bryan Bosshardt not meeting these proof qualifications, it is very difficult to determine the exact date David passed Bryan as Goldeneye champion.
His current main competition is Rayan Isran, but he has tied several of Rayan's WRs in recent times, including Silo Agent 1:02, Control 00 Agent 4:11.
Overall Clemens has 43 WRs, 7 of which are still untied.
Outside Gaming
David has a strong interest in Meteoroloy, music, movies and nature. His favorite bands are New Order, Joy Division, Depeche Mode, Nine Inch Nails, Assemblage 23 and Christian Death. His favorites movie series is Indiana Jones and he also has a small scale interest in archaeology.
