WORDRACESerial 73435323 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: DON'T ASK COMPUTER SOFTWARE, INC.
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Jul 20, 1983
The record shows that WORDRACE was abandoned on Oct 19 1984 after the applicant, DON’T ASK COMPUTER SOFTWARE, INC., failed to respond to an Office action, so the mark is not live, registered, pending or cancelled in any active sense. The only goods listed are “HOME COMPUTER SOFTWARE FOR MICROCOMPUTERS” in International Class 009, meaning the closest area of concern would be any software product for personal or micro‑computer use that uses the same name. The record does not give the owner control over every use of the word “WORDRACE” in unrelated fields, and it never reached the Supplemental Register; the prosecution history simply shows an examiner assignment, a non‑final action mailed on Jan 27 1984, and the eventual abandonment for non‑response. No opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the supplied history, so there are no visible enforcement signals. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan a software name that overlaps the listed goods, but the risk is limited to that specific class.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
