    Well fade doesn't get a kill either way. :p

    I'm either part of it of the contest or not. Like I would really make it that easy.

    Dude, I didn't call that a kill, just...too many words! You're still in, in my opinion.

    But beware...I'm bored and have to be awake all night! :p

    Man, I'm on the West Coast if it matters. I don't think this will be an issue since the edit feature is down...

    Hypothetical:

    What if one posts a paste that contains errors? Are we responsible for proofing articles?

    I wouldn't think so. Same goes for translating Chinese articles. But in your own words, you better spell it right!

    Well then I'm taking myself out (like Puede) and giving almighty Behad the kill credit.

    that is just too embarrassing, especially since I just entered the same night. I should know how to make sentences by now.

    but if anyone else points it out and wants credit they can stfu.

    Shouldn't you then write the word 'sic', in brackets after the incorrectly spelled word?

    For example:

    Can we get a list of who's playing, and who's out? I hate having to look through the signatures.

    dimsie can use English spelling...theorising is correct in that case.

    But drapg is gone:

    I am an idiot :). But I guess it is not a spelling error.

    SJC is dead.

    btw: remember that the last game had the rule that a wrong accusation kills the accuser.

    maybe I'm confused, SJC. Did you just misspell "theorising" or were you quoting dimsie without using quotes?
