Bethesda would be stupid to not accept this, they wouldn't win the lawsuit anyway.

How do people support this!?


Notch made a very immature choice.

Lol nice one Notch

thats stupid, they'll just hire professional gamers to beat notch and his team. Duh <_<

Also, if what I hear is true, the company the owns Bethesda (Zenimax) also owns Quake. So that means that Bethesda would have the advantage here. But, also note the fact that no money is involved in this challenge. So, with some simple logic, this means that if Bethesda accepts, they truly are serious about this lawsuit. But if they turn it down, that could mean one of two things:

1. Bethesda doesn't know how to play the game, or
2. They're doing it for the money.

But sadly, I doubt Bethesda would accept. If they're suing over one dang word, then they likely are doing it for the money. Accepting wouldn't give them any money if they win.

I honestly don't know much about copyright and stuff but i'm pretty sure copyrighting Scrolls would interfere with The Elder Scrolls, so I don't see what's so wrong about the lawsuit.
But also like i've said before I seriously doubt Bethesda will agree.

Lulzes. sounds fun. Never played Quake 3, but ill try it. maybe I could be one of the "best warriors."

You've never played Quake 3, yet you're thinking you could be one of the best warriors?

Good luck with that.

Leave It to Notch to create an Interesting solution to a problem. This should be quite entertaining.

LOL you people are my heroes. <3

I'm not completely against the idea but honestly no smart company would accept this.
and don't say HERP DERP BUT BETHESDA IS STUPID. Honestly you minecraft fanboys will defend Notch on everything.
If he robbed a bank the fans would say "good job Notch! now use the money for minecraft 1.8!"
And now everyone is going to yell at me acting exactly as I described.

You sir/madam, have created an interesting argument, If I responded to your reply stating that your "Bank Robbing Scenario" is just ridiculous, then you would most likely defend your statement by saying that by replying to your post, I have therefore proved your scenario true. Whereas if I don't reply to your message, you would probably forget about this argument & therefore lose.
Now that I got that out of the way I have one question to ask you....
What exactly am I doing then?
I'm interested in hearing your response.

I wonder what quake 3 means, but anyway i hope this plays out like most stories go. One where the good guys fight against an imperial doom and win...

I will forever handle all lawsuits against me in a similar manner. Mojang, you guys are genuises.

so what game, scrolls or minecraft?

Creeperv car just screams for cops to raid your basement...

man notch is acting childish over this, we will probably soon hear him say something about them being too scared too accept his childish duel (while in reality they are simply adults unlike him apparently)

That's just ****ing epic that Notch would come up with a solution like that. Really doubt Bethesda will accept though.

Fair enough challenge, they are best to accept it, its the only chance they have at getting Mojang to change the name. I really can't see Bethesda winning this case FAIRLY in a court.
