Each player must accept the cards life deals him. But once they are in hand, he alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game. Voltaire.

Re: Copyright Rules.
FWIW -- legally, copyright in the US exists from the time a person's words are in fixed form. That means if they are in a post under someone's log-in, then they legally belong to the person making the post. (this is mainly for things like people's original stories, but it applies across the board).
