Re: Space Empires V or ridiculous lawsuits? What is the connection?
Whoa, I was erm... just kidding.
I thought it was common knowledge that episode X has already been slated to bear the name "Super Mega Mother Of All Space Empires Reloaded X2: Return of the Space Empires From Hell".
Oops, sorry if you were trying to keep that info under wraps, Aaron!

Voidhawk, you just made Corporal: you've lost an element of your lurker status that you will never get back. My condolences. |

Re: Space Empires V or ridiculous lawsuits? What is the connection?
no, it isn't easy. and i think all cases could go to court, but if you sue say a spider, then the judge would explain that spiders are non-sentient and no malice was involved and suggest a psychologist.

That is what happens now... though I don't think anyone has ever tried to sue a spider... |

If that happens, Paramount and Activision would sue Aaron for the name's similarity to one of their products.
I wonder why the Spanish navy didn't sue Activision, then  |

Re: Space Empires V or ridiculous lawsuits? What is the connection?
i was using an exageration. there's probably things you can find that have gone through the courts that are silly enough.
need to think of things ahead of time, though. works best for people. so, people should think of this ahead of time, so they have a stance when it comes up for serious.

Re: Space Empires V or ridiculous lawsuits? What is the connection?
Like that woman that ordered hot coffee from McDonald's and was then dumb enough to place it in her lap, and lo and behold, some coffee spilt (I forget exactly why) and she was burned? She sued McDonald's for being burned by their coffee.  |
