    I loved last season!


    I wonder if Peter has all Sylers powers, thats why he so powerfull, and Syler has no power at all, he just sucker all the power out of him.


    I’m NOT digging the Peter story line at all. Hero in accent Japan is getting old. How many flying people do they need on a show?

    So what do you think is the deal with Lt Ohura? Is she one of the elders? Does she have a power/s?


    Let’s hear it.

    Quote from Good&Evil
    I think that there is no need to change just one card. Anyone can claim to have worked on a decklist and come up with the exact result as SCG. Unless stated explicitly, I can't see how the writers could claim anything to have happened otherwise (and decklists really tend to be similair at times matching card for card).


    That’s exactly my point.

    It’s not like taking a song my Justin Timberlake Wink and changing the word baby to girl and thinking your ok.

    We are talking about a TCG that millions of people play. Then narrow down the thousands of cards in a legal T2, and then narrow out the junk cards and your left with a few hundred good cards. Then add a specific purpose, let’s say burn, or an elf deck. Not many to choose from. People will make the same decks with out even knowing it. So it’s impossible for anyone to prove they are the originator of a deck.

    True, but lists and compilations of data CAN be under copyright (i.e. a phone book etc.)

    The specific card titles are owned by WOTC yes, but the specific organization into a deck consisting of these exact 75 cards is NOT owned by WOTC and could be under copyright.



    It would be impossible to SCG to prove someone stole a list of the 75 best cards for a specific purpose of a deck, i.e. "red deck wins" from the worlds most popular TCG. In the content of a TCG all someone would have to do to change a deck. Would to be add or subtract just ONE card.

    SCG CAN NOT copyright a list of cards owned by another company. THEY CAN copyright an article written by them or submitted to them that has a list of cards mentioned in the article. But a specific card deck? No impossible.

    Being a lawyer I can say a deck list cannot belong to SCG because the cards are the property of WOTC. You can not copy the article and repost it with out consent, but you can repost the actual card list in the deck being the cards are not property of SCG. It would be like Home and Garden sewing someone for having the same plants in there yard as they did in an article they had in a magazine.

    I use to like the song by Britny Spears called "Cry me a river"

    The song is by Justin Timberlake.
    This post is pointless, a thread necro, and not constructive at all.

    I dont know, but a fae deck would be cooler then a kithkin deck (IMHO)

    I made a elf/fae deck with all the cards I got from the prerelese, and Im going to buy a box of boosters and a box of turny decks. That should be enough to make a pretty cool all fae deck.

    Quote from Morphling
    Wow.

    In my previous post, I considered pointing out that your 'arguments' looked rather like something cut/pasted directly from www.moveon.org, but then I thought the better of it and left that part out.

    Turns out I wasn't far from the truth, was I?

    I believe having an educated opinion on an issue involves a bit more than just cutting/pasting someone else's opinion and then passing it off as your own. I believe that's why we call it the 'Debate' thread, not the 'Cut/Paste cute things you spotted on a political websites' thread.

    The problem is, too many of our registered voters make up their minds based on stuff like this and clever, yet oversimplified, soundbytes they heard on CNN (& Fox News, I'd be the first to point out.) No


    LOL dood it was what in this world people refer to as a joke.

    The problem is, too many registered voters can’t see a joke, satire or
    sarcasm when it is smacking them in the face.

    Over all I think the base of both the dems/rep are getting sick of all the “fake politics” “fake caring” and the fact they are ALL in big business pockets.

    08 will be the end of the dems if they all ignore why they were elected last election and now tell us they can’t say they will have troops out in 8 YEARS!! Birds of a feather…
