I don't have a ton of free time, but I'm willing to do what I can.

Sure, I'll help if you still need volunteers. Not sure how much I'll be able to contribute, but what I do should be high quality.

I'm constantly being asked to proofread and correct my co-workers emails before they are sent to customers. I'll be happy to help out when you are recruiting once more.

Default Joining the squad

I don't know if I would have time in the future to dedicate to this. However, the following reviews need correction, as far as I can tell:

7th Legion - under the Notes section, last sentence - spelling: "...overwriting the oringal file, and play!" Should be 'original'

007 - License to Kill - last paragraph (typo?): "...fan and, offcourse, any Bond fan." Should be 'of course' instead of 'offcourse'

1-0 Soccer Manager. Rough English in spots. Suggest possible rework.

1000 Miglia
- Second paragraph, second sentence: "Manufactures needed to decrease..." Should be 'Manufacturers'
- Second paragraph, third sentences: "It was fist thought that..." Should be 'first'
- Third paragraph, third sentence: "When you finished select the year..." Should be 'When you finish, ' or 'When you are finished, ' or 'When you have finished'
- Fourth paragraph, fifth sentence: "When you like to know where the hell you are..." Should be 'When you want to know' or 'When you would like to know'
- Last paragraph under How to Run the Game: "But no prob, it is includes." Should be 'included'

Don't worry about that Dave I will find the pages and post them into the Grammar section. Thank you very much Ohne.

Well I might only post two of the pages into Grammar the other two I might just edit onsite since it's only a few changes.

Default Review corrections question

I have proofed the first 30 games listed on Abandonia, of which I have already posted 4. I don't know if this is the proper forum to be posting what I have found since it seems more like the Grammar Squad sign-up forum.

Could someone either redirect me to the proper venue/outlet or give me some guidance?

Thanks
Ohne

For other people wanting to join the squad please make sure you have allowed other users to PM you...otherwise I can not send you the review to test..and thus you can't get in.

This is only my second post on this forum. However, grammar squad seemed to leap off the screen and into my being. Although I am no genius, I do appreciate the time and thought put forth in order to produce a decent post. Unfortunately, I have not a soul with whom I can PM. With that said, how do I join? Sign me up!

I was just reading the Jungle Strike review and was reminded of the grammar squad thread I accidentally found on google. Finding this thread is actually what re-introduced me to the site. I thought I would lurk until I found my first thing to change. I have, so I'm signing up for the error busters if you'll have me.

Anyway, Jungle Strike, near the bottom: "Graphics" is being used in the plural, and should be followed by "are" not "is."
