Singular "they" has been in use since 14th Century. http://www.oed.com/view/Entry/200700 Its usage has been criticized in 19th Century, then it got brought back nowadays. There was a strawman problem with using "he" as the gender-neutral pronoun; "xe", "ve", etc. aren't as fortunate either...

Well, no. In this particular case, you're still referring to Nitrome as a single, united company. It's Nitrome that consists of 12 members, not the 12 members consisting of 12 members. If you want to say "Nitrome are", you should immediately make it clear that you're specifically referring to...

As I know it, it's purely contextual. The rule which I usually go with is: If this band name is called with a plural noun, you can address it with plural forms of some verb. " 'The Beatles' are known as the 'Liverpool Four' ", for example. Except there are also bands called "Yes", "The Who"...

can we make everything okay

Hello, just played through this mod. It's, uh, a first mod. A polished one, for sure! Some significant changes should be done to the last 2 areas (and perhaps the rest of the game), but otherwise there's not much to complain about.

Well, she has magic. She can cast a spell and never die.

I don't think he's "10 years old", even if he might look like it. But even if he's 10, why Misery? Or is Misery also 10 years old?

Because Sue is most likely a child.

Don't we already have an entire "Game Theory" thread?

This game takes place in the Cave Story universe, where Astroboy and a group of characters from various Nicalis-published indie games try to stop each other from taking the Red Crystal, which... now has the power to destroy all worlds? But when did that happen? Didn't it get destroyed? I guess...

This looks very interesting, I might join in. Are there any rules regarding which tracks can be accepted for this project? Perhaps a goal, or a guideline? As far as I understand it, the album is a collection of remixes.

nobody else but the administrator (and mods) can send a thread to SPOT you don't want any of your threads to end up there. trust me.

Important reminder: Please do not reply to spam or ad threads. It'll be easier for admins to delete these threads if you ignore them completely.

This was unjustly harsh, wasn't it. This "review" was written somewhere at 6 AM by my time, after I just spent around 2 hours completing this mod. Perhaps the anger got into me? I take all responsibility for any misunderstandings caused. Also, I take back everything I said about True Hell and...

My mistake. [/SPOILER]

what's with the "service" announcements please stop shouting already

(note for zxin: "traduction" - translation) People have been comparing the two translations for a long time. AGTP is actually more accurate and conveys dialog that fits the characters better, while Nicalis' translation flows more naturally in English, but loses some of the flavor of the original...

Newer versions of ResourceHacker now force you to operate with .bin files. They're still going to work if you rename your .org files to .bin files, though. After you rename them, you can replace the resource. .org files from the mod can also be saved by saving as .bin file and then renaming to...

Bubbler is an interesting weapon, for sure. It's pretty unique in how it functions, especially at Level 3. Most people may rank it way lower than justifiable, even though it provides some unique tactical advantages. Looking into the numbers, Bubbler seems weaker than Polar Star: projectiles are...
