It's one thing to claim Jim as a co-creator of D&D on Facebook. False and annoying, but social media is rife with this. It would be another entirely if they start printing that as a fact on their products. Then they may get a cease-and-desist from WotC/Hasbro.

It wouldn't be the first time Jim was a little tone-deaf; he didn't really understand why everyone was so angry at Ernie and TSR3 after the bunker interview. That said, that puts anyone who wants to keep pushing on this in the unfortunate spot of having to call Jim out. Not something I really...

I think Marc Miller would have something to say about the second one. :) Or not, MA predates Traveller by a year or at least a couple months...

Fast Forward Entertainment was the first time we realized just because old TSR developers worked on a product didn't make it gold. My brother has a few of their first books, he stopped buying them after that. As far as Wonderfilled, they did at least release an original product, albeit one...

That's untrue. WotC agreed to suspend their petition for cancellation until after the civil lawsuit TSR filed against them is decided. You can see the relevant paperwork here: https://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=92078589&pty=CAN&eno=7

Questionable Authority on Twitch.TV noted that WotC has nobody but themselves to blame, as they should have renewed the trademarks and not let them lapse. Or at the least gone after Jayson Elliot. I wonder if they possibly didn't as he made his own logo and the letters "TSR" may have proven...

So we got the two cases: WotC's motion to cancel TSR3's trademark application and LaNasa's request for a declaratory of judgment. Which one gets done first I wonder?

What value does TSR even have now as a brand? The company that it represents is long gone. Does the TTRPG community really want to see it become the gross characterture that Atari has become in the video game industry? WotC is doing the right thing with the old TSR branded products, making them...

Apparently, The WotC petition came the day before LaNasa launched his Indigogo campaign and his counter suit. (Per Tenkar of Tenkar's tavern.) What this means is that their poorly-crafted and ill-advised suit for a Declaratory Judgement had a basis in that they were hoping (rather naively) to...

I'm no lawyer, but this reads like a professional wrote it. I'll be surprised if it's not granted.
