This is the quintessential experience in SF:NG for literally anything where it is possible to research even within the text. A science concept is mentioned - a quick search confirms the science does not work like that. A part of Earth's history is mentioned - a quick search confirms that is not...

Writing is way too clear and consistent for Justin, and doesn't have the Grammarly feel. Tenkar has a video a video about how there are now emails about anonymous emails that look like someone trying too hard to be nuTSR emails. There are a couple of prime suspects but only one of them shares...

Things that make you go hmmm

So for anyone who is curious just how bad Star Frontiers: New Genesis was shaping up to being but who doesn't want to read hundreds of pages, and/or missed the opportunity to read about it Alarms & Journeys stuff, well I wrote a lot of words about it. Main points are: 1. Not only is there very...

Hilariously the ISBN is still registered to Star Frontier: New Genesis: Google Books is kind of opaque with its sources, but it looks to me like Justin tried to swap the registration info to Dungeon Crawl board game for some reason and then add the subtitle possibly to spite Don. That or it...

Yeah, while the lecturer vigorously denied it - I am pretty sure NZ's ethics framework is shaped primarily by the fact it is a very small, crowded pond that is particularly vulnerable to public scrutiny. That does however also make them very reactive, with recently only clarifying that...

Pretty sure the query was re: WotC's fees but in regards to mine - the particular act is made to be as accessible as possible so doesn't require fees. He does owe me $250 NZ for my time though. If he appeals then the fees are laid out publicly - I don't like his odds of it since he'd probably...

I'd blame autocorrect but too many people know me too well. But yes, he has managed to get into a position where no metaphor would be too mangled to summarize it. But I for one, am confident he can still dig that hole deeper.

Not yet, but that is the jeopardy for him with the counter-suit and the stress involved. If WotC wins, he may have to pay for both sides lawyers - plus damages etc. Currently that's looking a well over a million dollars. So, he can theoretically spend more on defense to reduce the...

Update on the bankruptcy, Tenkar has covered it if you prefer video, but otherwise here's the quick summary: After there were fees etc for the bankruptcy, there was just short of $6 grand to distribute, with the only real asset being the $15 grand that WotC paid for the trademarks (keep that...

There has been speculation on the place being over-insured, etc but nothing ever substantiated by more than gossip and outright speculation. Indeed - this was mostly more hilarious for the idea that I: 1. Had a substantial enough amount of money around to pay off a judge... and somehow chose...

Bonus content. Tom, Tenkar and Don all had a livestream chat on YouTube today and I dropped in just in time to see this amazing statement from one of the chat's get highlighted: Buddy if I had "buy a judge" money I would not be working full-time and studying mostly-full-time. Also like, I...

I'm getting the feeling that Justin's lawyer has a tendency to simply do the searches in Lexis/Westlaw/whatever and then rush through them without bothering to do the required levels of due diligence - checking what court, the actual ratio, etc Instead he seems to just assume the computer...
