"Point Out Minor Typos" etc. Topic

Yes, a cucco riding the ground.

When I read it, I thought it was intentional Engrish (since when was the site "the SDA"?). I'm not sure, though, and it is understandable (though usually awkward) when an adjective is used as a noun the way it was in the news post.

Welcome to what is now the LONGEST single segment run on SDA with the video timing over 5 hours(Time is 4:52 at the final hit, over 5 due to ending).

Can this be changed to "Welcome to a 5 hour long action filled no cutscenes start to finish speedrun of KH2" cause I really wish I paid more attention to runs on this site. X_x

Minor typo (sorta): In the run request thread first post, Advance Wars: Black Hole Rising is listed twice. Just noticed that as I'm making a console sorted list Tongue

Oh, I'm already kind of in the middle of making a console sorted list. You can post typos for the request thread in the thread itself... this typo thread is for typos on the main page and game pages.

quick question for my new PoP Rival Swords runs. The game list reads ...

"Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones for GC/PS2/Xbox/PC (2:24:24)"

... but since it's also "Rival Swords for the Wii (and PSP for that matter)" should it be changed to ...

"Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones/Rival Swords for GC/PS2/Xbox/PC/Wii/PSP (2:24:24)"

Yes, a cucco riding the ground.

And in a return to the original spirit of this topic:

Quote:

After finding out that his run was available on YouTube (albeit extremely well-hidden), I joked that we should just use his Youtube comments in lieu of a response. After a while, this became a serious suggestion, so take a look at the page to see the outcome.

The new segmented Zelda: ALttP run's first NQ segment's statID is missing the run's final time.

In the Kid Niki comments on the game page, the second link leads to YouTube but should lead to a page at tasvideos.org.

Edit: Also, in the game list, the full title of the game isn't listed. Just Kid Niki is listed, but the full title is Kid Niki: Radical Ninja.

General Kong - Bullets and Bananas

When you click "game list", it still says 505 games. Shouldn't vgmr's Kid Niki and my Castlevania IV bump it to 507? Wink

On Super Smash Bros Melee for GameCube, we now have two runs on classic mode. Philippe 'Wak' Brisson finished in 39.74 seconds using a sleeping Pokémon. No, not Snorlax - it's Jigglypuff. Andrew 'Pokemonmaster888' D. used Ganandorf for an even faster time of 32.77 seconds.

I hate to be a grammar stickler, but on the status page, where it says how many runs are ready for update and such,
the "needs compressed," "needs uploaded" etc. should be changed to either "needs uploading" or "needs to be uploaded."

Not really a big deal but I do notice it everytime I see that page.

it's pittsburghese.

the real reason we took down the link to the queue was that radix's thick dialect was so offensive to other americans.

Yeah, I caught that mistake as well. I guess it's a bit pushy too, but Classic Mode should probably be capitalized.

I just caught another typo, one that I'm not sure has been found or brought up in this topic already. On the Super Smash Bros. Brawl speedruns page at the top by the listed runs and dates they were made, petrie911's run of All-Star Mode has a double "by" referring to that he created the speedrun.

vgmr: The game page has been fixed, sorry it took so long. Applying these fixes used to be Enhasa's job. The game list hasn't been fixed, but it's not a big deal IMO (though I did tell Grenola about it)

2009-08-10 05:02:25 pm

guffaw

It's fixed now.

(And applying these fixes still is Enhasa's job as far as I'm concerned.)
