Text Games for Sale

[avwjase]

I have the following text games I'm looking to sell for reasonable prices. Paypal is a must for both of our protection.

Front Office Football 2007 - Just can't get past the interface. I sold the last copy of FOF as well to another guy via a post on this board. He can verify that I'm a trustworthy trader.

OOTP 2006
OOTP 6 & 6.5
OOTP 5
Season Ticket Baseball 2003 w/ box & everything
Season Ticket Baseball w/ box & everything

The two STB's will require shipping and handling be tacked on. Probably 2 bucks or so.

Make me an offer. E-mail is avwjase@yahoo.com

Not sure if this is a good place to sell previous versions of ootp unless its 2007 or ootp8. I cant see someone going back or to 2006 and 5 is free. Not anything wrong with trying to sell them. I just think most members here are probably more interested in 2007, ootp8 or are waiting for the newest version. Though you might find someone interested in ootp 6.5. But anyways good luck.

Actually it may be illegal. Software licenses are rights to use the game. You do not own the game itself. You have no right to transfer the license. See below for v8, however I'm sure similar restrictions apply to earlier versions.

1. Licence to use the Software
The term "OOTP 8" includes the software included in this game, the associated media, any software associated with the online mode of the game, any printed materials, and any online or electronic documentation, and any and all copies and derivative works of such software and materials.

OOTP Developments grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use two (2) copies of OOTP 8 solely for the personal use of the licensee. The two copies may not be used by two people in two places at the same time. OOTP Developments grants the use of two copies of OOTP 8 solely to provide the licensee with flexibility, and does not condone the use of the two licensed copies by users other than the licensee. Copies of OOTP 8 must be installed on like operating systems (Windows or Macintosh). You cannot install one copy on a Windows PC, and one copy on a Macintosh. All rights not specifically transferred by this Licence remain with OOTP Developments. OOTP 8 is licensed to you and not sold. This licence does not give you any title or ownership in OOTP 8 and should not be construed as a sale or transfer of any intellectual property rights to OOTP 8.

You are authorized to make backup copies of OOTP 8 for the sole purpose of protecting your investment. You may transfer OOTP 8 freely from one computer to another, subject to the other requirements listed above.

2. Ownership of OOTP 8
You agree and acknowledge that all right, title, interest and ownership rights in any and all copyright, design right, database right, patents and any rights to inventions, know-how, trade and business names, trade secrets and trade marks (whether registered or unregistered) and any applications therefor and other intellectual property rights ("Intellectual Property Rights"), in or connected with OOTP 8 and any and all copies thereof (including in particular but not limited to any data, database, designs, titles, computer code, themes, objects, characters, character names, stories, dialogues, catch phrases, places, concepts, artwork, animation, sounds, music, audio-visual effects, text, methods of operation, moral rights and any related documentation) are owned by OOTP Developments or its licensors (where relevant). OOTP 8 may contain certain licensed materials and OOTP Developments or its licensors may protect their rights in the event of any violation of this Agreement.


3. Use of OOTP 8
You agree only to use OOTP 8 or any part of it in a manner which is consistent with this Licence and you shall not:

(a) without the permission of OOTP Developments use OOTP 8 or any part of it for commercial use, for example use at a Internet cafe, computer gaming center or any other location-based site;

(b) without a further licence, use OOTP 8, or permit the use of OOTP 8, on more than two computers at the same time;

(c) make copies of OOTP 8 or any part thereof;

(d) use OOTP 8, or permit use of OOTP 8, in a network, multi-user arrangement or remote access arrangement, including any online use, except as otherwise explicitly provided by OOTP Developments and subject to acceptance of the terms and conditions of use;

(e) sell, rent, lease, license, distribute or otherwise transfer OOTP 8 or any copies without the express prior written consent of OOTP Developments;

(f) reverse engineer, derive source code, modify, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works of OOTP 8 modify, adapt, merge, translate, decompile or disassemble OOTP 8 or any part of it (save as the applicable law expressly permits whereupon all and any modification, adaptations, improvements etc shall belong to, vest in and be the exclusive property of OOTP Developments on creation in any event);

(f) remove, disable or circumvent any proprietary notices or labels contained on or within OOTP 8;

(g) export or re-export OOTP 8 or any copy or adaptation in violation of any applicable laws or regulations; and

(h) create data or executable programs which mimic data or functionality in OOTP 8.

(i) otherwise use, copy, transfer or distribute OOTP 8 or part of it except as expressly permitted by this Licence.

4. Warranty
OOTP 8 is provided without any warranties or guaranties save as specifically provided in these conditions and to the extent permitted by the applicable law.

Yeah its not something ive ever tried or even bothered thinking about. I guess its just like those copywrite messages you see or hear from a movie dvd or a sports program. But if its illegal to sell movies and games how are pawn shops able to redistribute them without being guilty of breaking the law. Or are they not doing the same thing? Just curious.

[avwjase]

Heh, I love how some people are broken records. Look, I don't see the OOTP guys raising a fuss about this and it'd be silly to do so. I have upgraded to their newest products and I do every single year. I buy everything OOTPDev makes. Anyone willing to buy their "old games" obviously isn't in the market for the new stuff, hmm? If I were selling copies of OOTP 8/07 -- which, I own three copies of (two 8's and 1 07) -- then I'd see the issue. It's taking away from their current sales but I'm not doing that.

Anyway, this whole thread is moot now. My wife is a teacher and I've been spring cleaning lately. I found the STB and STB '03 boxes and discs and decided to put them up here in case anyone was a "collector" of OOTP, which hey, some people collect snail shells and crazy stuff. It's possible. Or if someone new to OOTP 8 just wanted to get one of the old games and see what it was like. Hell, I was willing to sell it for shipping more or less. Just to get rid of it. Then I decided to go ahead and throw my other licenses up too since they do me no good now.

However, I got sidetracked there. My wife is an English teacher and she has some boys in her class that are into sports and baseball but she can't get them to do their homework and stuff. So, I donated all of my old OOTP copies (even the licenses) to her and she is enticing them to do their work by offering those games as "prizes" -- I failed to mention the part where most of these games are free now. Hopefully they don't know that yet and will work to get the games.

Eitherway, at least they're going to good use now. And, uh, hopefully OOTPDev doesn't have an issue with that. /roll eyes

Nobody is making a fuss. We merely pointed out that people might get ootp5 since its free or wait for the new version. Rich just pointed out that it might be illegal. Thats not our call thats for ootp to decide. It doesnt matter to me. All i was saying was that your probably wasting your time trying to sell the game here.

Still looking to sell Front Office Football. I'll take $15 for it. I never play this thing as the interface just isn't my cup of tea.

[avwjase]

Or, I'll consider trades for the new College Hoops game or MMA game. I own the rest already.

[molarmite]

Put them on Ebay.
