PC The Offtopic, A17 thread.

I'm not a writer, not even a native english speaker, but that one sometimes grinds my gears too. Generally, people who misspell words, while the very same words were spelled correctly 10000 times before in plain sight, piss me off on some level. Not enough to start correcting everyone, but enough to chime in when someone else does. :D
While you're at it: Could you also give the users of this forum a lecture on the correct use of the apostrophe? Specifically how it's NOT used for plurals of the vast majority of nouns. That seems to have become a rather pointless trend over the last years or so and it's happening here too.

And if you still have energy, there's always "there"/"their", "your"/"you're" situations, but those just seem to be a lost cause.
As Gaz has already so eloquently demonstrated, it's actually a "there/their/they're" scenario. The jerk. :-)

 
The natives of both England and US, use the apostrophe wrong all the time.

Kinda harsh to ask foreigners to get it right...

 
OK. With the last 50 or so posts, I think people need to indicate if they are:

Trolling.

Counter Trolling.

Counter-Counter Trolling.

Volenteering to spel chek.

Venting.

Crazy.

Or saying something useful.

Just trying to keep up. :)

 
I held off as long as I could but here's mine:

Lose: 1) To not win a game. To finish second or worse. 2) To misplace something

Loose: 1) Not tight fitting or slightly detached. 2) To set free

Loser: Someone who fails

Looser: Someone who untightens or sets something free.

Guys, seriously, you cannot loose 7 Days to Die unless you think that by uninstalling it you are setting it free into the digitalverse.

People who log out right before bloodmoon are not loosers unless you think that by them doing so they are breaking in their keyboard so the keys aren't so tight.

TFP release dates are loose and people who believe they are promises are losers. They might lose their tempers here on the forums and become so toxic that I will have to act as a looser and set them free.

Only one bug tombstone remains (at the moment). Cautiously optimistic for streaming this weekend and A17e on 10/1. :)

 
I hope this update is worth the super long wait. And I hope it feels "new" because often it seems that the amount of time we wait there isn't enough content to justify it.

"Looser"?Sounds made up :p
I would have went with loosener.

loos·en·er

ˈlo͞os(ə)nər/

noun

noun: loosener; plural noun: looseners

  • a person or thing that loosens something.
  • informal
    a relatively undemanding challenge early in a game or competition, before the participants are fully settled or warmed up.

Any idea on how many people will say the informal version describes players who live underground... :D

Roland stated that the tombstones have nothing to do with the release of A17e.

Current theory is that it is Roland's way of tracking how much toilet paper he has left.

 
On the brightside, if this weekend is stream weekend. At least I get to play Pathfinder: Kingmaker this week.

Are we there yet?

2705 hours and counting. A17 should push me about half way to 4k or farther if I start playing multiplayer again and if spider comes back and starts modding again.

Great work Pimps, looking forward to watching lots of streaming hours and then playing lots and lots of 7 Days. :)

You can always tell when an update is well overdue when the halls are filled with Grammar Prefects.

All replete with gaudy blazers and a fancy pin.

I thought "looser" was the comparative of "loose," meaning "more loose." Don't sweat your mistake, though; you already told us that you are a math guy.

I'm wondering whether people are embedding secret messages with their strategic grammar and spelling mistakes.

I got nothing.
