joeyt Posted April 9, 2008 Author Share Posted April 9, 2008 Here I always wondered how SI's fingers never slip and they don't do any spelling mistakes but I've found one. Don't suggest that I alted it on paint as I wouldn't know how to do it. (I hope the link works and it hasn't already been covered) P.S. I'm not someone who loks or spelling mistakes, I just saw it flash across my screen Rubbish Result for me too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digs_473 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hehe, maybe the commentator has a speech impediment? Didn't they have a spelling/grammar error in that infamous April fools day joke too? Their proof reader should get sacked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandy_Tait Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 There's numerous missing apostrophes, minor grammatical errors and incorrect capitalisations through the game's text, as well; most commonly in media comments and other news. But given the sheer quantity of text and the variety of combinations and variable fields it's got to be a complete nightmare combing through it all.
