S are by definition derivative, and a lot of my material comes from research into publicly available sources - but a couple of the drafts were leaked to me, and without putting too fine a point on it there were terrible coincidences.

Putting my original draft side-by-side with the new ones, it looked in some cases like the new author had used my draft as an outline.

I addressed the situation to CGL in an e-mail to Jason Hardy, Randall Bills, and Topps, followed up by hardcopy letters: Jason Hardy, I am cc'ing this message to Randall Bills at Catalyst Game Labs and to Ira Friedman, VP of Licensing at Topps.
