The entire Scrolls vs. Skyrim debacle has been one twist after another. First, Notch challenges Bethesda to 3v3 Lawyer Deathmatch (in Quake), and how Notch has been keeping a very light-hearted approach to this whole thing. And now, via his Word of Notch [notch.tumblr.com] blog, he stated that the Documents ZeniMax submitted were made public once they'd been filed.
For those of you who want the documents for himself, you can find the torrent Notch released with the documents here [magnet:?xt=urn:btih:523CA68B6D56CFA402591878AD1CAA3CAF750EC2&dn=st%c3%a4mningsans%c3%b6kan&tr=udp%3a//tracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80/announce]. And on the off-chance you feel like not trusting a random internet-person, you can find the original blog post (with torrent attached) here [http://notch.tumblr.com/post/10814623188/the-eventual-release-and-the-legal-documents].
So, what are y'alls thoughts on this?
They're all there, and in good ol' Swedish. For those of you who can't read Swedish, I did a translation up here. [https://docs.google.com/document/d/127kuTEz51OAcn8ldcTuhBoWde2ABNuYpQOyjDaJkWHQ/edit?hl=en_US](Not a perfect translation, but it'll do. It's a direct copy out of Adobe Reader, so if it looks a little weird in places, you know why.)We are claiming one thing. They are claiming another. We?ve tried to negotiate, but we can?t reach an agreement, so we?re going to court. I?m personally very opinionated about things like these. I asked our lawyers, and apparently the documents ZeniMax submitted became public once they were filed.
