Cheap Trick 28: Point out someone elses past mistakes to distract from your crimes against humanity. (taken from "How to be a hardcore Dick-tator)


I´m a peacefull and calm person, which despites violent but the more I read about US patent law the more I want to set a torch to the trolls and kill them with fire.

I know that this is not very constructive. I know that violence is not a solution. But seeing what these [insert insult here] do to our industry I just can not help myself.


Creating a good brand is hard work, and king was not willing to invest in it.

"Otherwise, it would be much easier for future copycats to argue that use of the word “Saga” when related to games, was fair play."

Well it IS fair play.

If king wants a unique brand choosing a genric word used in many game titles in the last decades was a bad move.

King messed up all others developers must pay the price.


It is ok because it makes sense. Unlike other (stupid) acronym jokes, GTFO describes the purpose very well. It is funny the first time you read and usefull because you can renember/recognice it better than TS.


IMHO this is a bacon-salad problem:

Add some bacon (js) to your salad and you have a healthy and balanced meal.

make a "salad" out of bacon and and mayo dressing and you have a problem.



First of all: News != Truth

I do not belive all Texans (or even the most of them) are as bad as one might think, but the tiny bits of information we get about Texas paint an ugly picture.

We do not get Reports like "Things are going well in Austin!". In the internatiol news reports. We get reports like "Stricter abortion laws, force clinics to shut down", "Armed Militia hunting illegal imgrants at the Border", "Patent troll wins in Texas", "...".

Texas is a great target for critics all over the world:

Texas is well known and is closly associated with Cowboys, strict laws, and the death sentence.

Liberals have someone, to bash and local conservativs are glad that critics get distracted by someone far far away.

So I´m sorry Texas reputation is bad, not only among IT folks, and not only in small hardcore leftist cells.

I do _NOT_ say that all this true. Hell, I would be shocked if it really was!


This will only apply to "quality" seeds which went through "quality ensurance" and are sold by large companys.

So what is the logical consequence?

Bann all other seeds! This is not a joke http://www.collective-evolution.com/2013/06/05/european-comm...
