The name \"PlaneShift\" (as we know it) if used prior to the release of \"Magic the Gathering:  PlaneShift\" by the Developers would more than likely retain the right to the title, so it should not be an issue.  Also, the game does not make any money, therefore, it is not for-profit.  The only way \"Magic the Gathering\" may interfere with the title in anyway is if \"PlaneShift\" (as we know it) were making money and using copywritten/trademarked material by \"Magic the Gathering.\"

Essentially, what I am writing now is copywritten.  You do not need to go the Federal government of any other agency to \"copywrite\" a work of literature or what not.  Once the work is completed and distinguishable as your own, it is copywritted by the respected author.
