Super Bowl XLV Recap
[LESS INFO] 5 VIEWS | ADDED 20:31:56 02/08/11
So out of the 11 games throughout the NFL post season, I only correctly pick 4 games. Big Deal, I got the one that matters right. When I picked the Green Bay Packers to win Super Bowl XLV. How did I know they would win, it wasn’t based on a feeling or karma but years of studying film, analyzing statistics, and...Did we have to show that clip...
Welcome to RideThePine.com , Let’s Talk Sports!
The biggest news coming out of the Super Bowl is the fact that Christina Aquilera messed up the words to the Star Spangled Banner. Is it bad that I didn’t even realize that she botched probably the watermark moment of her career. Why, because I was too busy trying to figure out what happened to Christina Aquilera? You remember this Christina Aquilera? Christina Aquilera looked like someone who ate Christina Aquilera.
And don’t even get me started on the half-time show. Those other Black Eyed Peas just kept getting in the way of Fergie.
Anyway the game had some more highlights like the stagged popcorn feeding of Cameron Diaz and A-Rod. Are there two people more desperate for attention.
Can someone get John Madden a freaking smartphone. That flip phone looked so old that I can’t figure out if he was trying to text or playing an intense game of snake?
The Super Bowl was exciting which is all that you can ask, but there has been a lot of debate on whether the Packers won the game or the Steelers lost the game. And this is what you will decide on this week’s poll on RideThePine.com . Let us know what you think was more true about the game.
I want to let everyone know the results of our most participated poll ever. Do you think that tennis star Kim Clijsters is hot. 64% of you think she is not!
Here are a couple of things to check out while you’re on the pine...
* Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback Michael Vick received an honorary Key to the City in Dallas during Super Bowl week. I’m an Eagles fan but as long as I have to start a conversation about Michael Vick with, “I’m a animal lover.” It probably is too soon, to give him some type of honor outside of football. I don’t think he has even received a key to Philadelphia, so why their arch-rivals would do this is beyond me.
* New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady is your NFL MVP becoming the first player in history to win by a unanimous decision, which that fact alone is pretty amazing. Think any Patriots fans out there still wishing they held on to Matt Cassel instead.
* The Cleveland Cavaliers losing streak is at 25, which is an all-time record in the NBA. And nothing sums up how bad their play is than their lose to Dallas when they had no idea how much time was left on the clock and couldn’t a final shot off.

Episode 10: Utilities Mover v Email ‘n Walk [Victorian]
[LESS INFO] 4 VIEWS | ADDED 14:44:00 07/24/09
Ifyou only ever read one post on this site, I hope it’s this one. The followingis my opinion, with links and information that I can find on the subject.
On the EDGE
Ihave only recently become aware of the battles that some game designers have todeal with, but in this case as it involves a game (EDGE)we previewed in our last episode, I couldn’t believe that it hadbeen quietly pulled from the app store. Especially it was one of their topgames to celebrate their 1st birthday.
Ihad to look into this a little closer, how can this app, nominated for multipleawards (won a Milthon award in France for the best mobile game 2008, IMGA(international mobile game award) during the mobile world congress in Barcelonathis year for Best Gameplay and Operator Choice for the IGF, we have beennominated 3 times – best mobile game, best soundtrack, best iphone game).
…just be pulled & not heard of again? I HAD TO FIND OUT.
Well,there was far more information and battles then I can even hope to cover here. I hope you will take the time to look at some of the resources that Ilist here, and follow / support the developers plight. They seem to be upagainst a system that does little to protect them.
Thisinvolves 2 parties, firstly the Developers Mobigame of the fabulous EDGE iPhone gameand a chap called Tim Langdell. From what I can gather he founded a company,Edge Games in 1979. Here is the description I came across:
Foundedin 1979 by Tim Langdell, originally as Softek Software (later SoftekInternational Ltd.) in London, England. [1] In 1990, Edge Games moved its headquartersfrom its home of the prior decade in London’s Covent Garden to Los Angeles ( Pasadena ).Edge is best known for its 1985 title Fairlight and its 1987 title Garfield: BigFat Hairy Deal . Though the company is still active, Edge Gameshasn’t developed and released a new title since the 1980s.
So,no new titles since the 80’s isn’t all that impressive, especially if you aretrying to establish that people associate the name “Edge" with yourcompany. I’m not convinced they do. There is mention in an article on theInternet stating that they also developed Snoopy: The Case of the MissingBlanket (1992). Which is more, erm recent?
Site FingerGaming have written about this dispute, and contacted developer Mobigame to getmore information about what is happening. They write about howaward-winning puzzler Edge has been unceremoniously yanked from the US and UK App Stores a few weeks ago.
Here is an exerpt from the storyon their site:
“We have legal issues with a mannamed Tim Langdell,” says Mobigame’s David Papazian. “If you already asked why Soul Edge (the Namco game)was called Soul Blade and later Soulcalibur in the US, you have your answer.”
Langdell, CEO of EDGE Games… contacted Mobigame and Apple in April asking that the game be pulled.Langdell claims his company owns the worldwide “trademark” EDGE. Despite this,the game remains up in other territories.
“We have the trademark EDGE in Europe(where the game is still available),” Papazian tells FingerGaming. “And we aretrying to register it in the US.”
And more fuel for the fire seemsto be Langdell’s own connections to IGDA.
Heis a board member on the IGDA,which is described as a non-profit organization created to empower gamedevelopers and advocate on their behalf. There is huge debate now abouttheir own credibility if he is part of the board, and how it affects what thepurpose of the IGDA actually is. I have no comment about this, because Iam not a member, but I have been reading the comments posted about this andthere is real mixed feeling about having him on the board.
Therehas been a petition set up to remove Langdell from his position. Youcan sign a petition asking for Langdell to be expelled from the IGDA here .
The Story so Far, TigSource
TigSourcehas followed this story from it’s inception. It has amazing list of linksand facts about the case and the folks involved. I think they have done agreat job at representing the issues. You can read thedebate on the forums .
Takenfrom their site, they have tried to simplify what has been happening with these(slightly edited) points.
1. Fingergaming posts an article revealing that the popular, award-winningiPhone game Edge has been removed dueto a legal issue with Langdell. Mobigame’s David Papazian suggests thatLangdell was also responsible for Namco’s Soul Edge being renamed to Soul Bladeand then Soul Calibur in the United States. ( Source )
2. Simon Carless posts an article on GameSetWatch in which he suggeststhat Langdell has a habit of engaging in lawsuits over his trademark on theword “Edge.” The article is removed, for unknown reasons, but has beenquoted on various other websites and forums. ( Source )
Tim Langdell and David Papazian –in their words…
Sothis is some of what has been happening, if we look further into how they bothsee the situation, we find a blog by StephenJacobs’s Gamasutra . [Jacobs has been involved with the IGDA forat least 4 years and once worked with Langdell to try and establish anorganization for game educators and researchers.]
Inthe comments section, they have both been speaking. Here are the basicpoints to surface…
1. Langdell claims that EDGE Games informed Apple of the trademark violation,whereupon Apple sent a standardized notice to Mobigame. At that point, Langdellclaims that Mobigame pulled the app voluntarily.
2. Langdell claims that it is, in fact, Mobigame that is bullying EDGE Gamesover the trademark. He also asserts that Mobigame started the “flame war” withthe intention of causing him embarrassment.
3. Langdell claims that he has never sued anyone over EDGE trademarks, orever started any litigation over the trademarks. Furthermore, he claims that“EDGE has never engaged in anything other than entirely legitimate practices toprotect its trademarks.”
4. Langdell asserts that he has personally produced all of the several hundredgamesEDGE Games has developed or produced since 1979, and that every otherstatement he has made regarding his own accomplishments are entirely true.
(Note: Langdell, even when askeddirectly, has seemingly made no attempt to verify any of this, or even providea simple list of games he has produced. Update: But if you go to the EDGE Games website and click “Videogames”at the top, you can see a list.)
5. Papazian responds to Langdell by saying that he has not made any commentsregarding the dispute since the Fingergaming article and has no priorconnection to either Simon Carless or Owen Good (who penned a Kotakuarticle about Langdell). He regards Langdell’s accusation thatMobigame is trying to cause Langdell embarrassment as a lie.
6. Papazian corroborates Langdell’s claim that Edge was voluntarily pulled.
7. Papazian claims that Mobigame offered to change the name to “EDGY” whereuponLangdell refused the offer and proceeded to register the trademark “EDGY”.Papazian also asserts that Langdell holds the trademarks “MIRROR’S SPORE”and “SOULSPORE,” suggesting a connection to EA’s games Mirror’s Edge and Spore,and Namco’s Soul Edge.
(Note: Edge Games does indeed ownthose trademarks. You can look them up yourself here [EDGY] and here [MIRROR’S SPORE AND SOULSPORE].)
8. Papazian claims that Langdell has never given proof of his connection to EdgeMagazine, or any proof that he has actively used the mark in recent years. Heclaims that the only person he has spoken to from EDGE Games has beenLangdell.
Aftermy research into what has been happening from the numerous sites on the web Iwonder what can actually be done. I have felt over the past year or two achange within the Internet community, a sense of sharing and collaboration. The creative commons spirit to make more things accessible to morepeople, heck even talk of Microsoft making online Word etc…
SoI am left wondering, what protection do developers have against thissituation? Who can they go to for help that won’t actually cost them everypenny of profit they make? Have you been affected by something similar? Whatare your views on this topic?
