Come Get Your Typos!

Yep, we all do it.

So, if we make a typo mistake, stick it on here, and we'll take care of it ASAP, and even stick a note on here saying we've done it.

Wonderful work, Eidan, but I noticed a common mistake among your descriptions. This website should clarify what I mean: http://www.cgl.uwaterloo.ca/~csk/its.html I will also provide an example below for your digestion.

A small block of goat cheese

" Crumbly and coarse in its texture is a hunk of cheese squared
roughly to the size of a small steak. Extremely white in
appearance with pockets of small holes to give it an almost
crater-covered appearance, (remove comma/place period) it's (its) taste is both distinct and almost
overwhelming if eaten alone, it's (its) scent is also quite prodigious."

" Glistening are the series of scales which (uniformly run)
across the length of this meaty fish. Set with a head which is
about a sixth of it's size, a pair of small eyes sit parallel to
a thin top which runs into a maw composed almost entirely of
cartilage. Set with a pair of fins at it's side and a stark, (excised 'if not') almost translucent dorsal (fin), this is clearly a fine specimen of
fish. It has been gutted and cleaned of it's intestines. "

" This slightly stunted looking (either remove looking or replace it with stunted-looking) apple is clearly of a variety to
grow (replace 'to grow in' with native to) in extreme climates, (replace the comma with a period) it's (it's should be its) shiny and relatively firm texture
and skin suggesting it's quite durable. Appearing as a very
pale, almost yellowish shade of green, (replace comma with a period) if one were to taste it,
they'd (improper contraction replace with they would) notice a distinct taste that can be best described as both
sour and sweet.

Great work, though, Eidan! These types of mistakes plague all of us. Keep it up!

I'll go through and check them for typos later... Eidan did 35 items in one day for us (GASP!!!), and I wanted to get them in before I lost my place in that document.

Eidan is the best. Eidan for president!

I have a awkward writing style, I know... it's more like it's my thoughts coming out in words then actual literature :-P

Anyways... I ordinarily can't be bothered for those slight typo's... so I guess i'm slightly at fault for that... i'll try and be better :-P

For the record, it's Eitan and it's pronounced 'A-ton'

The praise is welcome and appreciated :-P I'll keep trying to get more stuff in.

When I scan down into the Inn main hall, the barkeep is pouring 'beir' or something strange, though when I was later in the room itself it looked fine. *shrugs*

in 'ferment bile-fruit', the craft requires 12 of a handful of ripe, red berries, but when grouped, twelve of the item read '12 handful of ripe, red berries'. The craft refuses to accept them. Typo, or bug?

I was out foraging for food and found these couple typos, neither is a big deal, but here they are:

a prickly-leaved, sharp-thorned bush with blue berries

This large bush stands out from the rest with its dark prickly
green leaves that look as if they could easily pierce the skin,
though the large sharp thorns that cover the branches of the bush
could pierce the skin easily. Small bright red berries cover the
branches wrapped around each thorn, making them very difficult to
pick.

The berries mysteriously change colors from blue to red in the descriptions.

a series of bushes adorned with reddish-blue berries

A handful of reddish-blue berries appear to adorn a series of
tall, knee-length stalks which sprout from the ground to condense
to appear as bushes. If one were to look closely, it'd appear as
a broad patch of singular plants all tightly huddled as they
grow. wood.

And this one's just got some extra wood on the end.

"Recall screamcaps"

The first echo says "You set your mind to task, attempting to recall what you know about crushed scarbane root.", though the rest of the echos are accurate

Typing enter value will allow you to enter the
value, whilst typing scout vale will allow you to attempt
to scout out what lies within.

Enter value!

This one just made me laugh.

bashes your left calf glancingly with his axe.

He hits so hard he goes through and past shields at the same time.

In the main room of the Inn...

In the light this vaulted hall appears more spacious,
revealing the extent of its height and the intricacy of the
traditional roof thatching. Rich brown beams of pine connect one
another in a strange but powerful lattice, erecting the
triangular shape of the roof. Just beneath the beams are
methodically set a large collection of trophies such as antlers,
animal heads of all kinds, shields, bows and ancestral garments
as well. The day-time fires smoulder in their hearths and
numbers of domestic cats and dogs pad around the area without any
direction or meaning, giving this place a laidback atmosphere in
daylight. Through wide windows in the log walls one might catch
a glimpse of the wilderness outside Hules and the isolation it is
subject to. In the centre of the room is a long wooden table and
around that are spread several other pieces of furniture such as
booths, stools, benches and circular sets of tables.

So, the first correction I bolded was "are methodically set a..." which is awkward. "Are" is multiple, signifies more than one, though "set a large collection of," is singular, there is only one collection of stuff, not multiple collections of stuff. However, if there are multiple collections of stuff, which it seems to be, then it should be "methodically set are large collections of," removing the "a". Though, one can phrase it as "Just beneath the beams is a large collection of..." or "Just beneath the beams, methodically set, are a large collection," or "Just beneath the beams are, methodically set, a large collection,".

The second is lacking "the". It currently reads, "and numbers of domestic cats and dogs," whereas it should read "and the numbers of domestic cats and dogs," or "and the number of domestic cats and dogs," would be even better.

The third should be "laid-back," simple enough .

Fourth is the same, "in daylight," should read "in the daylight."
