Re: TEN!, Week One, Monday
This is a protest entry because the Pastor appropriated Vandal's game.
I believe I'll get a negative score, which is my way of protesting.
If Pastor had apologized earlier, Vandal may have made a clever promo for the game. Even now, Pastor can still avoid becoming a villain in Vandal's next novel.

Re: TEN!, Week One, Monday
As an IP lawyer, I can't possibly participate in this game. I agree with Vandal that using the name "TEN" without his permission in an effort to brand the game is at least morally wrong, whether or not it's actionable. I urge potential players to boycott, and I urge those who have played without being aware of this conflict to remove their answers, as ShamelessWeasel did. --Bob

Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Is this a real dispute? I don't pay enough attention to know who runs which game. I see questions and, if they look interesting, I answer them. I don't want to get involved in some sort of actual disagreement.
Thanks.
