Everything you say is correct zif. The Hexcell Games version of BlueMax was better. He had innovative ideas that made the game more attractive and exciting. He was nice to the players and actually listened to the their concerns. Not so at this site. The Youplay.it people got scared and cried to Phil. Youplay.it people make to many enemies to fast on this site. It will come back to bite them. Hexcell Games BlueMax was gaining traction with gamers. How do we even know the posts are from the real Phil Hall and not a schill to protect Youplay.its interest? I don't wish you any ill will Mr. Hall but if you are as sick as you claim I wouldn't want my legacy to be a petty squabble forever imprinted in an online forum before I depart. My suggestion is to change the online version and make it better or risk the chance that someone else will.

I contacted the youplay.it owners to get their opinion on whether they wanted to defend their exclusive permission to use BM. They replied that they didn't care. I then talked to my lawyer who is also a member of my gaming group. He explained the copyright issues and advised that I retract all permissions. I chose to retract the one to Hexcell and continue the long relationship with youplay.it. When you are talking several thousands of dollars you are not talking about "petty". |
