You will lose. You can't base a case on emotion. Calling someone a bozo might be cute in a general forum, but it carries nothing in a court or in a pattern of logic.   Emotional anger  may act as the engine behind  getting a case together but in the end, you have to make sense. Every single prereg agreement at the registrar made you agree that the names may never be made available for any reason.  Couple that with the fact that Afilias has said it will go after the fraudsters in December and with the fact that Afilias does not have to delete fraudulently registered names no matter how much you want to believe they do equals you with a very weak case. In fact, they are going to delete the bogus registrations. Just not till December. Preregistration was a risk we all took. I agree with everyone here that the sunrise was an abomination and that Afilias created this with their absurd sunrise policies but I believe people should focus more on provable fraud especially with individual registrars. This angle might prove more fruitful. But good luck all the same.
