Message: <blockquote data-quote="mudbunny" data-source="post: 6316528" data-attributes="member: 56746">Just a quick note from an actual (Canadian) patent examiner. The scope of what they are asking for is defined by the claims, and only the claims. As such, the way that I* read the claims is that it is directed towards a computer game or using a piece of computer software to translate a character's stats from one system to another. You can see this in claim 1, where it uses the term " non-transitory memory". Now, this term is not explicitly defined in the claims, nor is it defined in the description. In order to determine what is commonly meant by that, you use something like Google. And doing so reveals that " non-transitory memory" always is used referring to computer media of one sort or another. It appears to be using that in a way to indicate that it is stored somewhere that is not RAM. Claims 2 through 10 are dependent upon claim 1, so they also get this limitation. Claims 11-19 and 20 are also directed towards an apparatus of some sort (11-19) and a computer program (claim 20).* I examine applications in the field of organic chemistry, so I may be reading this wrong.</blockquote>
