[QUOTE="dirtypool, post: 8488692, member: 7033897"] Sigh harder WOTC hasn’t self published a novel in a few years. They license to TOR and Del Rey for their branded publication It actually does matter, because what matters is whether WOTC - the owner of the trademark - is willing to allow a brand confusion. They aren’t. And the Dragonlance thing would it create one since WOTC contracted with Del Rey and Weiss/Hickman for the book. They are not a competitor or an unaffiliated third party, they are quite affiliated. He could, except of course that WOTC filed to have his hold on the trademark voided in totality because of the brand confusion over the attempt to publish Star Look closer at the image, note the little floating box above the traditional portion of the logo that in the same font and color says the word “Classic”. That’s a derivative logo, not the unaltered original. But didn’t apparently look closely at it yourself You suggested that outside entities could update old content, use the TSR logo and just give WOTC a cut and proposed the DM’s Guild model. How we started. The info is not her post, and as she uses her Twitter and website more than the Facebook I didn’t even know she had, but cool. Keep at it so you can be the most correct person online today. [/QUOTE]
