One of the most fascinating things about a train wreck is that even after the engine has stopped completely, the rest of the train continues to move forward, crushing itself like an accordion being squeezed shut. I think the dinner car is slamming directly into a sleeper car right here:

According to documents received last Friday in California's Superior Court for the County of San Francisco, public relations firm Kohnke Communications, Inc. - best known for promoting the efforts of numerous MMORPG developers like EA Mythic, Red 5, Turbine, and NetDevil - is suing Perpetual Entertainment, Inc. for breach of contract, fraudulent transfer, fraud, and various other charges for damages between $80,000 and $290,000, perhaps much more in terms of punitive or exemplary damages.

The complaints stem from allegations that Perpetual sold valuable assets like the Star Trek Online (STO) license to P2 Entertainment, Inc., a thinly veiled yet separate corporate entity, before executing the Perpetual ABC or "Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors" (a liquidation mechanism allowed by states like California as a less expensive alternative to the extensive litigation surrounding bankruptcy). The case could have drastic implications for future of the pre-alpha Star Trek Online title.

I guess that puts the "Sell The Company Under Suspicious Circumstances" scoreboard at:

Horizons: 5
Mourning: 3
Ryzom: 3
Gods and Heroes: 1

Then again, if Perpetual is willing to use a fraudulent screenshot, are there any scruples left at all? At this point, I'm going to say that the future of Star Trek Online is in dire jeopardy. I think the saddest part of all of this is that Gods and Heroes was actually fun, different and had some good gameplay ideas. This is definitely the story to keep an eye on for the week.
