Q. Okay, I understand. Are you aware whether or not Mr. Miller was compensated for - for allowing Mr- Thurman to port Boomshine onto the iPhone? A. I believe they have a -- an agreement between them' I don't know if it's a wriften contract or whatever' I would be merely speculating so I would -- that's between them. ls ! I .0 1 l6 i7 le ie t Okay, I'd like to retraot what I just said. Q. No, I'm not trying to -- I'm not frying to catch you in anything -A. No, it's fine. I may have misunderstood your question. I did -- I wrote none ofthe flash code for the Obechi game, but when it was put on Facebook, I wrote quite A. iL0 il-1 iL2 a lot, probably a good halfofthe code required to integrate it with Facebook and the websites that housed it' 3 4 Q. Okay. Just going back to the GP2X -- the Boomshine j:.s 2X garne, do you know whether that game includes your music and sound effects? A. I don't know. Let me see' I I think ifs it's probable it does. I think that s one of Danny's requirements for the for a port to be allowed, that it has to come with it, unless there are reasons for whatever - - '14 h"s 6 7 tr6 I 9 0 1 - [: I Q. That's fine' For the record, Mr. Halbert, I don't think that the two statements that you just said were inconsistent. A. Okay. Q. I was referring on the one hand to the game and on the other hand to -- it8 i t-e , PO A. 2 3 4 reason like a music file takes up quite a lot it's possible that some people might have to actually remove the music track. Well, I say "remove"; I mean dont include of any type in their final port' Um a music track of any of memory, so 2.L 5 in this ... I -- I presume the music was in this port. That's usually the requirement' particular Q. Okay. When you -- when you referred to Danny's - 22 said you had coded probably half, you of that kind of -- that Facebook API integration' is said, Q. A. Right, great. Q. Um ... so you Okay. * integration, that's something else. - ?3 24 that right? A. Yes, that's what I would saY. 2s Q. About how long would you say that that took you? Page 97 Page 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 "requirements", is thal - what are you referring to there? A. Nothing - nothing stringent of any kind' It's "' um ... merely he wouldn't want someone making a really justice embarrassing clone which does the original game no and, you know, attempting to at all and calling it Boomshine kind of enjoy some success off the back saying, "Oh, this is Boomshine, it's been done by this this porter", if you want to call them one of those, when actually ifs nowhere near as good as the original' do you Q. And how do you -- how do you know that? How -- yeah, have knowledge of Mr. Miller's requirernents or let's just leave it at that. Is that something that he's expressed to you? t 2 3 4 5 i6 i8 ; I 9 0 1 - ,:7 We did it October, November'ish of 2009, so I think it was about one month's work. It was a fairly drawn out process, but we eventually got there. Q. So your understanding, Mr. Halbert, having coded, you know, some or half of that code, the SWF -- the SWF flash file for Obechi, do you know where that flash file A. is f,0 resides online? A. Um ... I could : I could find the address' Um "' l.r 3.2 il-3 ,1a I 3 4 A. I think it's -- I mean it's preffy clear from I what the - it will be linked to by one of the web pages that we created for the Facebook application. It will also be on his K2xl.com website as well. Q. Okay. So sorry, I just want to clarif is it your testimony that that SWI file -- well, strike that' If I were to play the Obechi application through the Facebook 5 6 can see ... um ... that when someone does approach him just about a port, he obviously wants it to be good and il_5 p.6 I I 7 8 9 by good so as not to defile the actual -- the name of the game' can Q. Okay. All right, thank you, Mr' Halbert' You put those aside. - I would imagine by common sense he would want it to be L7 il_8 i platform, where would that SWF file reside? A. Um ... I'm pretty certain that's hosted on his website, K2xl.com and it just appears in -- in the Facebook browser. 0 Lg ?o 72 Q. Okay. Has Mr. Miller told you anything about his case against Facebook? A. ... um.... Did you Obechi game? 3 4 did you do any actual programming for the ?t ?3 ?4 ?5 ; \ Mr. Miller testified that you had helped code some of the -- A. No. I don't think so. Q. Okay. I'll represent to you that on Monday I'm awate he's been advised to tell me as little possible. He's tried to tell me as little as possible without harming the nature of the case -- Q. And Mr. Yao?
