Let's see. We want to premiere a new convention and use the nostalgia attached to our newly registered as of June 16th Trademark.
I know. We'll call it TSR Con 2022!
But what makes us special? I know! We'll have it at Horticultural Hall in Lake Geneva! Instant super nostalgia! We'll get signups without even announcing a schedule.
Sure, its max capacity is 160 peeps, but we'll say it's "The Nation's Premier Wargame Convention" because surely there aren't any others that are bigger and have history, right? I mean, it's not like there's a list of wargaming conventions available to check against. Who needs a proven track history to make these statements when we have "nostalgia!"
When is it you ask? Just say "2022". It's a big year. We'll figure out the details later but we need to build the hype now!
If only we could secure the TM for Blackmoor in time for the convention. That would be icing on the cake.
What, we already filed for it? Awesome! Let the Arneson Estate know we will give them favorable licensing terms.
Just wait for the press release at PR.com! It will be amazing with run-on sentences that will make every German proud!
Just like our TSR Games is Back press release. Just don't take it too seriously, because WotC might get offended...
Hey, do we get to sue the "old" "New TSR" for using our TM? What about WotC using our TMs on their DTRPG PDFs and PODs from the "original" TSR era? Now that we've redrawn all of the classic logos and have TMs pending, they're violating our trademarks, right?

Laughed out loud at this one....
ReplyDelete"LaNasa is a visionary and entrepreneur that has set out to reunite brands like TSR with the original talent behind them."
I don't know how to break it to them, but most of the 'original talent' is dead.
I can hear the Hasbro lawyers salivating from thousands of miles away... The term "egregious" will be bandied about in the filing like it was a conjunction.
ReplyDeleteHow much for a table in artist's alley?
ReplyDeleteThese are the same good folk that offer high end celeb dms at the old Gygax home for 1000$ a player. Good times.
