- 00:43 Disaster_Area so how bout u anything exciting on your end of things?
- 00:44 Jellicent playing some online poker atm
- 00:44 Jellicent been cleaning up past gens c&c a bit this weekend
- 00:45 Disaster_Area interesting stuff
- 00:45 Disaster_Area i never was too big of a fan of poker but i guess its ok so long as ur not gambling lots of money oO
- 00:45 Disaster_Area anything interesting coming out of the past gens c & c ?
- 00:46 Disaster_Area that barely gets any analyses as far as i'm aware
- 00:46 Disaster_Area the only place rby or adv analyses are written is PP usually xD
- 00:46 Disaster_Area or are u getting people to write new analyses?
- 00:47 Jellicent free to play, can win money, though
- 00:48 Disaster_Area oh nice
- 00:48 Disaster_Area you know what else is
- 00:48 Jellicent and the only i got up so far was a bw lc tirtouga revamp
- 00:48 Disaster_Area free to play but can win you money?
- 00:48 Disaster_Area PP's RBY and GSC Seasons :L
- 00:48 Jellicent interesting...
- 00:48 Jellicent though i'm kinda on a poker fix lately
- 00:48 Disaster_Area £30 prize for winning an RBY Season
- 00:49 Disaster_Area $55 AUS iirc for winning a GSC season
- 00:49 Disaster_Area and there's prizes for second and third
- 00:49 Jellicent we've had a game going on at work all summer, nickle and dime blinds, initial buy-ins were $2
- 00:50 Jellicent finally cashed out of that game, since it looks like that place is basically done
- 00:50 biggie i didn't get the NJ job Jellicent :c
- 00:50 Jellicent
- 00:50 Disaster_Area nice jelli and :c biggie
- 00:50 biggie tho i did get to check out yardley, pa
- 00:50 biggie which was a really cool town
- 00:51 Jellicent yeah
- 00:52 Disaster_Area oh well checking the old gen c&c i see that
- 00:52 Disaster_Area dan's got a celebi analysis in the works and most of the way there
- 00:52 Disaster_Area that's great
- 00:52 Disaster_Area btw he's done a lot of adv analyses on PP jsyk
- 00:52 Disaster_Area not celebi but like 10 other mons
- 00:53 Disaster_Area i dont know what's really the rules between us and smogon about
- 00:53 Disaster_Area using eachothers analyses esp when a writer is a part of both communities
- 00:53 Disaster_Area probably something we ought to discuss though
- 00:53 Disaster_Area since it'd make a lot of sense for example for us when this celebi analysis is done to have a copy on PP especially as that's where the majority of Dan's analysis work has been thusfar
- 00:54 Disaster_Area also since our new GPer is also an official smogon GPer iirc (it's Sobi btw) then their GP stamps on any analyses should count too lol
- 00:55 Jellicent there's no way sharing analyses would fly on this end
- 00:55 Disaster_Area hm
- 00:55 Disaster_Area interesting. Why's that?
- 00:55 Jellicent also, counting up my change, already more than i expected, which is nice so far :3
- 00:55 Disaster_Area great ^_^
- 00:56 Disaster_Area but yea I like I think when for a metagame that's very similar on either and the writer uses both Smogon and PP and writes analyses on each
- 00:56 Disaster_Area the writer should be allowed to copy or plagiarise parts of their own analyses onto the other site
- 00:56 Jellicent copywrite issues / desire for unique content / possible plagiarism / etc.
- 00:56 Disaster_Area i think we had this issue come up b4 btw um
- 00:57 Disaster_Area i spoke in the smog irc i think about
- 00:57 Disaster_Area what if I wanted to make a copy of a smog article of my own on PP
- 00:57 Disaster_Area they said best thing to do was to make a new version
- 00:57 Disaster_Area if I do that
- 00:57 Disaster_Area which I did
- 00:58 Disaster_Area but it seems very messy; who would have intellectual property rights over the content of a smog article? Would it be wholly one of the writer or smogon or would it be a mixture of both? Similarly for analyses
- 00:58 Disaster_Area Since we're now at a crossroads where this is actually a relevant conversation it's one we really should be having, with people from both sides
- 00:58 Disaster_Area Do you think?
- 00:58 Jellicent when you contribute content to a site, that contribution becomes property of the site
- 00:59 Disaster_Area surely that's not the whole story though. Like for example
- 00:59 Disaster_Area with facebook say, it doesn't entirely own all of the pictures on it
- 00:59 Jellicent unless specified that your contributions will remain your own copywrite, you can usually assume it's no longer yours
- 01:00 Disaster_Area if a user requests that a photo be taken down they can do it and under certain conditions I believe may be legally obliged in the US though I'm unsure
- 01:00 Jellicent facebook can use those photos however they want...
- 01:00 Jellicent true
- 01:00 Disaster_Area and if a user posted a photo they first post on facebook
- 01:00 Disaster_Area elsewhere on the internet
- 01:00 Disaster_Area facebook couldn't take that photo down on copyright grounds surely?
- 01:00 Disaster_Area or could they?
- 01:01 Jellicent you're claiming copywrite on something when you upload it to a site like facebook or youtube
- 01:01 Disaster_Area if they can't then evidently some of the rights of that property posted online remain with the original posted
- 01:01 Disaster_Area *poster
- 01:01 Jellicent that's why they'll delete stuff that isn't actually yours
- 01:01 Disaster_Area well youtube doesn't nessecarily deletebut sometimes it'll give revenue to the original rights-holders instead
- 01:01 Disaster_Area so why is it that
- 01:02 Disaster_Area when youupload to fb / yt you're claiming copyright, but not on a forum such as smogon
- 01:02 Disaster_Area also another question
- 01:03 Disaster_Area about versions
- 01:03 Disaster_Area how much needs to be changed for something to be considered a version rather than infringing on those copyright restrictions for example in the cases of articles and analyses
- 01:03 Jellicent you're still claiming copywrite when you post something like an analysis (which is why we'll infract plagiarized work), but you're giving it up when you contribute. that's what you're contributing
- 01:03 Disaster_Area so does it only become smogon's property when it's uploaded to the smogdex
- 01:03 Disaster_Area ?
- 01:03 Disaster_Area or does it become their property at some point before then
- 01:04 Disaster_Area so for example could dan copy what he's currently written about celebi onto PP and then cultivate it there without infringing on copyright, or what if he does it before grammar and prose is done
- 01:04 Jellicent when you post it, i'd assume, unless you delete it yourself
- 01:04 Jellicent since analyses can be taken over
- 01:05 Jellicent and you'd have to look up plagiarism laws to figure out how much is "too much"
- 01:05 Disaster_Area well this is definitely complex
- 01:05 Jellicent since there's a lot of gray there
- 01:05 Disaster_Area I feel like it should be more than just us having this conversation
- 01:06 Disaster_Area like it'd be nice to come up with a modest agreement w/ smogon
- 01:06 Disaster_Area say that
- 01:06 Disaster_Area if a writer actively writes for both sites they have the right to post content that they made on one site onto the other
- 01:06 Disaster_Area would be an ideal agreement in my mind
- 01:07 Jellicent if that agreement was going to be made at all (and i doubt it would), it'd have to be made between chaos and lutra as site owners
- 01:07 Disaster_Area okay
- 01:07 Disaster_Area well, I'll share the whole of this conversation with Lutra, Cowboy Dan, and everyone else in the PP Skype chat, and we'll discuss what we want to do.
- 01:08 Disaster_Area If it ends up going badly I guess dan might have to delete that celebi analysis from smogon
- 01:10 Jellicent i mean, it's up to him if he wants to contribute to both communities or not. he just can't directly reuse the same contribution for both
- 01:11 Disaster_Area yeah I figure that but as u said grey area on what is and isn't fine and
- 01:11 Disaster_Area there's little sense to different versions of analyses just to get around copyright laws
