So where does that leave your new acquisitions from Twistys - SexTube.com and GayTube.com? Both domains would likely be considered generic terms and not eligible for trademark protection. Therefore, they can't be registered during the .XXX Sunrise period and they can't be permanently blocked by paying ICM Registry's one-time fee. Prior to your ultimatum, the most likely scenario would've been ICM Registry auctioning off the domains to the highest bidder.
