Re: [Ogf-l] Copyrightability of games

[David Shepheard]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]   <snip> The Second Circuit's logic is similar to my own on the subject.  Extrapolating from those premises, the core rules of D&D are not protectable via copyright.  The inclusion of a number of the various fantasy races and/or classes is probably not protectable via copyright. <snip> Wow! Your list of things that are probably not protected by copyright sounds very similar to the list of things included in the SRD.   I wonder if there is some connection. A sort of "if you can't beat 'em join em" aspect to the OGL.   David Shepheard Webmaster Virtual Eclipse Science Fiction Role Playing Club http://virtualeclipse.aboho.com/ http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/virtualeclipselrp/
