Being the blood thirsty and sadistic freak that we Brikwarriors all love, Dave suggested the following: - Attack of the killer tomatos - TL7 drunken barfight - (...)

(...) Well, here's what I can tell you (and your parents). I started going to GenCon in 1981 when I was eleven years old. I went with my parents and they kept pretty close watch over me at first. As they became more comfortable with the situation I (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.glug, lugnet.gaming)

(...) I'll be the primary person in charge of all the ESPG gaming. I'll be bringing a pretty good sized fleet of ships (can't tell you just how big until I actually see how much fits in my luggage).

(...) I'll be there, with the proverbial bells on. I'm GMing all the Brick Battles events, but will probably not have an opportunity to play much else, as I'm also running demos for Ad Astra Games.

Well, the time is approaching, and the 4 best days of gaming come closer. So how many of you GLUG readers out there are making the trek to Indy and the first meeting of GLUG? What game(s) will you be playing? Will you be GMing? What Teklevel of (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.glug, lugnet.gaming)

I've reformatted and tightened up the Brick Battles rules a bit, in prep for GenCon. I would appreciate any comments people have. (URL) (23 years ago, 2-Jul-03, to lugnet.gaming)

Sounds like you're going to be taking some legal risks no matter what you do, since LEGO has form patents on the minifig itself (as well as most of the weapons), if you have anything that "looks like" a minifig in the game, you're stepping on (...)

This is my first post to the LUGNET newsgroups after having joined LUGNET this month. It's actually one of the reasons I joined in the first place -- to get comments, suggestions, and even volunteers about this game from LUGNET members. So, here it (...)

(...) Yah. I'd like to have it be a no-maintanance 'you can charge people to play, but you can't make money off it' disclaimer. And I'd like it to be short and succinct. I realize these two goals may be mutually incompatable... James (23 years ago, 24-Jun-03, to lugnet.gaming)

I think it comes down to how you use the trademark. Using it in the name of the game will not fly (because people could assume the game was a product of TLC). Mentioning in the game rules that TLC makes an excellent set of LEGO sets that can be used (...) (23 years ago, 9-May-03, to lugnet.gaming)
