Re: "Suck it down"

>>> As I recall, first to register generally prevails, but there are circumstances under which you could try and cancel the mark. As an alternative, you could register "Who's your daddy", "Bend over", and "Here it comes", or some iteration as an alternative for Duke4VR...<g> <<<

I was just kidding about our superior rights to this slogan, I'm sure you know <g>. However, I do think we have superior rights (if we wanted to pursue it) thanks to our first commercial use of the phrase. I'm sure Charles will correct me (as always!) if I'm wrong.

In any case, I do not think the phrase is worth the registration fee and expenses. The phrase does not have marketing value nor is it a cool phrase to associate with a game.
