At one point the professional artwork was created and owned by Craig Hamilton.
I believe between the ‘group’ of them, they owned the artwork and existing
sketches of TIOM’s intended map, and other aspects of their creations.
Registered Trade Mark or not, the art/concepts and creative works are still
property of their owners/creators and are shared _with_ the community. But
nonetheless, are still in the possession of its creators, and thus they are
entitled to do what they want with their works.
It’s their trade mark… weather registered or not.

And Trade Tark is essentially a moot point…
They can still do whatever they wish with Castle World TM…it’s theirs!

It has never been claimed (let alone registered) as a trademark until today, when you've tried to use it (...) (21 years ago, 4-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle.org.cw, lugnet.castle, FTX)
