Against the cockroaches, writeup for Into the Filth ...that she commissioned the city s architect guild... should be city's ? Whatever parsed the " ' " ate it up instead. Hope it helps. edit: After game 2 of same adventure Before can land the killing blow Morvin escapes by diving in to the noxious stream... erm, huh ? edit2: erm , the writeup for morvin's revenge also sounds broken...my english isn't great, so some linguistic maestro should comment on it ?
Well spotted. Morvin's revenge has the following mistakes: "Pursuing Morvin, your characters become will will become be separated. One of them finds himself locked in a room with the filthy Stench Demon! His friends must fight their way past..." Fixed in the next build.
Hopefully, that excess "be" will also be scratched. Also, technically, "diving in to the noxious stream" is okay. You could say "into" or just plain "in" for simplicity.
This might be deliberate but in the first fight of Against the Cockroaches, two of the cockroaches had names Test4 and Test5.
Black Oaken Heart Intro: "Karen lost [...]. Now she can't go to go PAX. [...]" After battle 1: " If only I [...]. If I only I didn't [...]"
Aftermath of Battle 3 in 'Lair of the Yellow dragon' ...will have little difficulty finding Carlinians lair... Should be Xanthicius ? Also at the beginning of the 4th battle, Xanthicius enjoys visitors,...insatiable appetite for gold, Carlinian disdains.... erm, how many dragons are there supposed to be in this lair ?
Against the cockroaches :: 2 Aftermath Speaker: Melvin Current: "Before can land the killing blow" Should be? "Before you can land the killing blow"
Before the 4th battle in Black oaken heart, the pair of feet with pink high heels says, '...The winner get to go some funny convention...' gets to go to some ?
1st battle into Melvelous the Magnificent, Melvin says: 'Melvelous' castle...' should it be 'Melvelous's castle...' ? Don't understand the " ' ", same with the placeholder text: Melvelous' challenge begins... Can some English maestro kindly enlighten ? After the 1st battle, placeholder text says: 'Ha ha, he wasnt dead after all...' should be wasn't ? After beating Melvwathisnameadventure, Melvin's last dialogue does not disappear as it should. Specifically, he says 'I'm done here...blah blah blah...proper game.' I click on 'Collect Loot' and the constantly vibrating Melvin with his words follow me to the Loot screen.
(Now where's my orchestra?) ANYWAY, this is part of the rule for using the apostrophe-ess, or " 's " thing, tacked on to the end of words. It has to do with ease of pronunciation. When you add apostrophe-ess, you add a little "sss" or "zzz" sound to the end of the word--but some words already HAVE a final "s" on them, and English speakers don't like stuttering, i.e., being forced to pronounce "sss'sss" or "zzz'zzz." If you take "Melvelous," and then add apostrophe-ess to make "Melvelous's," it's difficult to pronounce. Therefore, apostrophe-ess is SHORTENED to just an apostrophe: " Melvelous' " in this case. That's the rule. Personally, I think that sometimes there's a way around it: if you pronounce "sss'zzz" then there's no stuttering. Thus, PERSONALLY, if I can pronounce a word that way, then I write the full apostrophe-ess. Blue Manchu, however, is still linguistically correct to use the lone apostrophe.
Card Hunt 2. After battle 2: "You have [...]. And it hurt." "The good GM is committed to learnng [...]" Adventure complete: Mistery Guest says ticket to the players, Gary says tickets to Karen.
Minor point: In Melvelous the Magnificient the top left of the battle screen shows Gary as your opponent although according to the metastory you're playing against Melvin...
Introductory GM dialogue for Wizard's workshop, specifically 'Oh, hi, I'm Gary. This is <player name>'. Karen's pic is shown instead of Gary. I was confused for a sec.
