Just got back home so,,,,,,,,Just want to bump this up .

I've talked to my attorney.
He informs me I can do anything I want to with it.

What is this so called new style, innovation? Do you really have to consult an attorney to play Electric Football now? When is the release date and what company are we referring to? I have played so many ways that I surely have crossed that path before.

Wait, I think I saw that style at the Miggle joint. Yep, stop reset, stop reset, run. Played that way from 1976 until 1998. I don't think you guys were born yet but if you were I apologize. I did used to love playing that way but if I have to consult an attorney to play then it's time to hang up the cleats.

I wish all EFLers luck with their style but it is NOT NEW. Patent it if you want but know that someone has been there before you.

What are you patenting? Rules, style of play or figures?

A hobby is what you make it . PS3 is a hobby to some people , model trains , art etc . It is what you make it , so with that said small minds make for a small hobby and great minds make for a great hobby . It's all in what you put into it . Have fun playing the way you like and I hope that you will come to understand one day .

good luck with your copyrights for your 'method' of mini-football. Having been around since the early "online days" of our sport-hobby, iT has come a long way from those days. At the same time, it has not advanced that far from the early days of electric football.

As I have said on more than one time, you did not CREATE mulitiple stops on during a play - we all have done that in the past but never gave it a "name". That has been offered, and/or pointed out to you over the years with your only response to these claims is "someone trying to steal something from you".

Pass Placement (as you call it) was brought to the masses thru Vance Warren (once was a part of your inner circle) and Rules 2000. Since that time, it has taken on various adjustments to what it is on the tournament circiut today. It is a little late to claim that now, in my humble opinion.

This is not a "hater post" as your new #2 would have some to believe, this is simply a request that you end with this hostile position you appear to take if someone disagrees with your rules, league, playing method, etc.

It's old, it's boring, it's dumb to a certain degree, and it continues to keep you in a "less than flavorful spot" in the game.

You are a good guy, but as it has been said before, you rub folks wrong with the positions that you take.

If you really feel that MPFL will take off, let it stand on it's own (after you have your copyrights in place).

NO HATING, JUST VENTING
You can call me anytime
