Ahhh... but Tank complaining about 'being robbed' is one thing, the kennyboy trademark phrase is "I was robbed" - note the slightly orc-like conotation in the wording - which is different altogether.
So, I put it to you, Mr Digger that your clients infringement stands, and as such, still warrants punitive measures!!! 8)
I thank my learned friend for his ‘brief’ foray into the world of legal jurisprudence; but would point out that, unless said phrase “I Was Robbed” has been registered as a trademark (Section 21 of the Trade Marks Act 1994) then no restriction in its usage may be claimed by the plaintiff.
One may even go as far to say that the phrase has fallen into the vernacular and therefore any threats of punitive measures are not only unwarranted but may be construed as intimidation.
We therefore suggest that as a goodwill gesture, KennyBoy withdraw his claim of infringement and go further still, and change his signature phrase thus avoiding future representations.
May we suggest “I was beggared, bereaved, cut off, deprived, destitute, devoid, dispossessed, divested, fleeced, impoverished, minus, naked, parted from, shorn, stripped, wanting, without”. :twisted:

Also the accused has been involved (allegedly) in numerous games for jelly beans tourney fixing. Taking jelly beans from dis reputable other parties.
You will find that the accused (Mr Tank) has in fact credited Mr Kennyboy with the quote (patented) "I was robbed" in past posts. Therefore going on historical evidence Kennyboy is right and the accused must pay the usage fee (Kennyboy likes beer).

Sorry I edited it for clarity, it's £50 of Vouchers to be used in the shop.
As to the Gaim, well if anyone wishes to bring the Gaim then I personally as the tournament organiser and without need for any kind of bribe, bung, backhander etc etc will merrily look the other way whilst said player is taken out back and........... well I can't comment in an official capacity :twisted:
Ok, of all those taking part,
A: Is anyone planning on taking the Gaim?
B: How many of you object to the Gaim? (you can PM me if you're shy) :lol:

I am not taking Gaim - I'm not particularly happy that they are included as I believe they are currently too powerful as a fleet and need tweaking.
However, they are an official fleet and therefore should be allowed. This of course does not stop anyone who plays against them declaring at the beginning that they forfeit the game; giving the Gaim player an instant win, but no actual game play.
I am pretty sure they would soon get the message and not play a Gaim fleet again.

This is exactly what I'll do, unless it is a non-broken fleet selection. I'm coming for fun, so if a game is obviously not going to be fun, I'll watch someone else's and grab a drink instead.Digger said:
Well if they won the £50 voucher then they probably would take exactly the same fleet again!!!Digger said:
I offer huge apologies, but I am unable to attend. I have let Tank know, and advised him of my difficulties before I made my final decision (or rather had it made for me)
My Lease car for work gos back tomorow, and whilst my replacement car is sat in a depot in hertfordshire (I could have picked it up!!) I don't have a date for it to be delivered, could be weeks yet
Alas for those who have tried, Manchester to Aldershot on public transport is a nightmare!
so have a great time, safe in the knowledge that my new shiny mothership will not be facing you, with death and destrutcion in mind!
I'll get you next time you crazy kids!
