Similiarity - How much is too much?
Playing The Leshire Nightmares, I was struck by how much it copied from some of Alcritas's scenarios, like On a Ship to Algiers and Apology. I am wondering how much copying do you think is fair...

I don't think Leshire copies too much. Solberg needed to have a quick scenario for the contest, and he used standard components. Possibly you mean the black+white dream sequence- but that is a common...

To be honest, the only one of Alcritas's scenarios I ever played was an Apology. From there, I did get the idea to use black and white graphics for the nightmares, but that was all. Obviously I did...

To Solberg - You must think I am an idiot to make your lies so transparentand pathetic. I find them far more offensive than your plagarism.I was prepared to ignore this issue, or at least adress it...

...hanged, drawn-and-quartered, burnt at the stake, and then REALLY hurt.I've played all of Alcritas's scenarios through to the end save for Redemption. When I looked at Solberg's page, the downloads...

Sorry, Alcritas. I didn't mean to offend you, and, to be honest, the only scenario of yours I've played through is Lamentations. I was just trying to support a designer whose scenarios I have enjoyed....

I made this point clear to Solberg after beta-testing Sword and Stone, that it seemed a lot like Of Good And Evil and Heirs to Theseus.It is blatant plagiarism, and I would like to lobby these...

Don't you all think that you're overreacting? Just a little?Seriously. Whether Solberg copied those scenarios is moot. The question is, is banishment an appropriate response? That's what you're...

This entire situation shocks me. On my superficial look at "Sword and Stone" and "Lemshire Nightmares", I can obviously see that they are near copies of Alcritas's works. Unfortunately the damage has...

With the posting of this message, I'm sure I'm committing political suicide here. Nevertheless, I must comment.Regardless of anything Solberg has done, Alcritas' unwarranted theatricality has dealt...

Try the bit about one's country. By possibly driving one of BoE's best designers, he has severely harmed the Blades of Exile community as a whole.Also, banishment is perfectly deserved in this...

First of all, if Alcritas is so fragile he can be expelled by Solberg, then that's his own fault. Can't you see? Alcritas' act was a callous way of permanently destroying Solberg's status in this...

You do seem to be vehemently against Alcritas. You bring up some interesting scenarios, but I do not see your logic in villianizing Alcritas. I really don't see this great conspiracy set forth by...

You misunderstand my message, Stareye. The only act of Alcritas' I disapprove of is his surprising threat to leave. Think carefully. Alcritas obviously has the whole of the BoE community behind him on...

Stareye, you also supported banishment. Your most recent post was probably the most intelligent argument I've heard yet (at least you didn't advocate extreme action, even in jest).If only everyone was...

How many of you would consider yourselves programmers? And how many would consider the creation ofa Blades scenario analogous to the creation of a unique program? If you answer yes to both, would you...

Sounds like a good idea to me, IF Solberg believes that he committed a bad act (if he does not, I will continue to support him). It would be perfect if Alcritas would admit that his act was indeed one...

Hey kids,Why can't every one just get along?PS As a die-hard Ravenloft/Strahd fan, "Fog" was plagiarised but not from Alcritas, it's as much a carbon copy of the old AD&D module as "Johnny...
