Yes, I am making this thread because of Pokemon Twilight. I have mad respects for Game Fortress and his game he started making like 6 years ago. He got me hooked on game development, I can confidently say that, even though I am past the whole Game Maker period long time ago. I can also confidently say that he is the first to make a successful Pokemon fan game from scratch using Gamemaker. But this guy come along, and uses that name for his fan game, I have asked him to change it because of the obvious reason why, but he refuses to, saying he came up with it in 2008. I can say that Game Fortress made that game in 2004, which is 4 year before he even came up with that idea. Now who has the right to the name? I would say Game Fortress. Now you can also bring in the fact that these are fan games we are talking about, then we would have to go by the fact who has more progress. I would say Game Fortress has more progress due to the fact that he made his game engine from scratch, and got pretty far. Also by going with fan base, I can say Game Fortress also wins in that area too, he has/had several active forums and threads just dedicated to Pokemon Twilight, which I can also say is alot more than his thread with a couple guys responding to.
P.S. Keep in mind there are multi million dollar law suits in the real world for even the slightest un authorized name references out there. This disscussion is not outrageous at all, he is copying the title word by word.
