This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

the patent wasnt even granted until last yesr or 2 iirc, because it kept on getting found too general...long as you don't exactly copy their code your good.
the reason noones done something similar since is because you have to build your whole game around it
The patent went through in 2021.
and the game was released in 2014, the reason noone has done similar isnt becauss of some patent. nobody reads patents that's the whole point of patent trolling
Totally, yeah. Just wanted to highlight how long ago that whole debacle was and how old it makes me feel :(
