Notch To End Lawsuit By Beating Bethesda In Quake 3

I am back, and I am excited.
Marriage has been wonderful so far, and nobody sabotaged my computer while I was gone.
The only negative thing going on at this moment is the Scrolls trademark lawsuit nonsense, and I think I came up with the perfect solution:
Remember that scene in Game of Thrones where Tyrion chose a trial by battle in the Eyrie? Well, let’s do that instead!
I challenge Bethesda to a game of Quake 3. Three of our best warriors against three of your best warriors. We select one level, you select the other, we randomize the order. 20 minute matches, highest total frag count per team across both levels wins.
If we win, you drop the lawsuit.
If you win, we will change the name of Scrolls to something you’re fine with.
Regardless of the outcome, we could still have a small text somewhere saying our game is not related to your game series in any way, if you wish.
I am serious, by the way.

I think it's some shooter game thing.
The Wikipedia article on it.

Someone send emails to both of them saying to record it so they can post it on YouTube or something!

Re: Notch To End Lawsuit By Beating Bethesda In Quake 3
Quake 3 is one of the earliest multiplayer first-person shooters, made in 1999. Many people say that it is the best multiplayer shooter.
I hope all lawsuits end this way. It'd be much more entertaining.

Dear Markus Persson:
It has been made public knowledge that you are to settle the lawsuits over the Scrools title with Bethesda over a Quake 3 match. My friends and I suggest that you record the match and upload it to YouTube. I also suggest you forward this message to Bethesda, so they can record their gunners as well. We hope to see you win!

Oh, another tip:
Everyone who sends it, change it so it's different wording. We don't want him to think of it as spam.
Also, try sending a modified version to Bethesda.
