+I am not a lawer... But you say "the rules of a game cannot be copyrighted."
+Let's suppose that my computer is a game, k?
+So my programs are the rule to play/use the game... so following that logic, 
+they can't be copyright, so all that EULA as just shit :)
+
+I have heard that what you can copyright is the style of play, for example you 
+can copy right D&D, you can copyright the Critical Hit table, but you can't copy 
+right the method of throwing a dice to resolve action. :)
+
+Anyway, with all that shit about patents, i think that you will be able to 
+patent it to. :-(
