EDITORIAL: Corden Maximus - Vindicated!

I normally do not write editorials on this blog, but I felt this situation warranted the truth.  There were accusations that the typist behind the @Corden_Maximus account had essentially used an already created character.  The accusations were investigated by other third-party Twitter accounts, and are well-documented on this blog.  The third-party Twitter accounts (@The_Daily_Rag) conducted an independent investigation and came to the following conclusions:

  • The accusation was that a certain company created the character Corden Maximus on 12/14/10
  • Twitter's records show the Corden Maximus account as being started in 11/2010
If you are a reader of this blog, it is noted that Corden began role-playing with me around Thanksgiving of last year (November 28, 2010) and our adventures are well-documented (specifically, see the "Admiral Piett Storyline" tag and look around that date).  It is apparent on my blog that the Corden Maximus as the Mandalorian bounty hunter character was a well-established role, and the Mandalorian bounty hunters were well-known characters throughout the Star Wars universe since the days of Jango and Boba Fett (Star Wars Episodes 4-6).

The same source of the accusations also stated they created the Rang Skirata (@TheRangSkirata) and Admiral Piett (@Admiral_Piett) characters.  The Rang Skirata character was created in 2009, and Admiral Piett is a canon character from the original Star Wars series (not to mention the account was created in early 2010).
