Pathfinder non-trademark?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


So if D&D is 'The world's most popular roleplaying game,' how would one refer to Pathfinder if they don't want to get sued?

'The world's most findingest roleplaying game?'

'The "P" game?'

'The world's most non-standard twenty-sided dice-rolling roleplaying game?'

Pax Veritas' Approved Version for Versimiltudinous Play?


"The Bestest RPG of em all!"

"Pathfinder coming in on the outside...it's Pathfinder, no it's D&D, Pathfinder...PHOTOFINISH!!! PATHFINDER WINS THE DERBY!"

"The Game"

"The Awesomesauce"

I dunno, What if Pathfinder BECOMES the "World's Most Famous Role-playing Game"...Can they counter cue Hasbro for the rights based upon the truth?

Oh I know...do the Squadron thing "World Famous Pathfinder Role Playing Game"

I would also accept "The world's most Paizo roleplaying game."

Spoiler:

...on second thought, you should probably ignore that.

I still hold to the gnome bloodline theory.

If you wanted to get really silly, 'The world's PFinest roleplaying game' might work. I like 'World's most Paizo roleplaying game too' but if they made another game, that'd suggest the other wasn't as Paizo.

They could use "The world's most Paizo roleplaying game... For now!"

The next: "The world's newest most Paizo roleplaying game!"

The third in the series would be: "The world's most Paizo roleplaying game... IN SPACE!!!"

Whoops, I just realized Paizo is a trademark, so that wouldn't work so well.
