That's the joke! A lot of the death messages are like that. Many don't make a great deal of sense in the situation either (like being decapitated by a rat). If we want sensible death messages then the system would need a bit of revision.bitterhorn wrote:Oh, and last night I saw someone who was "decapitated to death" on the channel - same issue as above; I've never heard of anyone being non-fatally decapitated :lol:

Re: Typos
the Finer Energy Manipulation talent Reshape Armor starts with 'Manipulate forces on the molecular level to realign, rebalance and hone your weapon...'. The same text as Reshape Weapon. Should be changed to something else.

Re: Typos
In the talent description for Abyssal Shroud, "lite" should be "light" (since it's called Light Radius in the character sheet), and in the Crown of Eternal Night's description, the first "fell" should be "feel".

Re: Typos
Iron Skin talent description:'more damage then is normal'. Should be than.
Also, Wintertide can be used 'to mental cleansing'. Should be 'to cleanse your mind'

I debated calling it "te4.spellcasting.20110923", because it's all in talents/spells/.

You never heard of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight? There have been others (not real life obviously but that's hardly relevant).Grey wrote:That's the joke! A lot of the death messages are like that.

Re: Typos
According to the Modern Language Association's Style Manual (supposedly - this is from a secondhand source as I don't have a copy), Telos's seems to be the preferred form because it's a singular proper noun:greycat wrote:Telos's and Telos' are both acceptable possessive forms of Telos.
The MLA Style Guide is used as a reference mostly for writing papers and citing sources; however, Purdue University's Online Writing Lab - General Writing site states that both forms (Telos's and Telos') are acceptable.Modern Language Association wrote:
- To form the possessive of a plural noun ending in s, add only an apostrophe: photographers' exhibit
- To form the possessive of any singular proper noun, add an apostrophe and an s: Dickens's reputation, Descartes's philosophy, Marx's precepts, 'Venus's beauty
- To form the possessive of a plural proper noun, add only an apostrophe: the Dickenses' economic woes, the Vanderbilts' estate
