Yeah, you're right. I checked rm2k, and it's actually a 60% chance. Since this is unrelated to the topic and we don't expect Lun to read through the whole thread, you should start a new thread in the bugs forum about it.

Anyone get the idea maybe some of the people in the game have different dialects, different pronunciations, or just plain don't know grammar well enough? It's kind of like... like... people in real life.

Well, a character with a dialect could change/abbreviate "have" to " 'ave", but "haev" is just a plain misspelling. Unless you have a character potentially THAT stupid, but...
The grammar thing is correct though. Someone's correctness or incorrectness of grammar can be a good tool for displaying someone's character/class/education/whatever.

I realize there are more important things than this right now, but I know I will lose my list or forget about this if I wait too long.
Episode 1
From E1Map12:
"For example, if the damage you
receive exceeds your Dmg. Thresh.
by 1, your Critical Hit% will decrease
by one. This is a 1st degree injury.."
There is an inconsistency between "1" and "one". There should be one more period at the end.
"Man: I'm a little disappointed... \| but
it takes quite a man to swallow is pride
and know when he's beat."
This should be "his".
Episode 2
From Rhue's conversation with Velecia on the Marna Stretch:
"Kill them?\| That seems
a _tad extreme to me."
There is an extra space.
Episode 3
From the Prison map:
"(Leader?\.\. This guy must think
I'm apart of the Blue Scarves)"
This should be "a part".
The first correction in that post is probably the only thing that needs to be looked at from that locked topic.

From Pits Sub #7:
"(What?\.\. No don't!\.\. What am
I thinking?)"
This should be "No I don't!".
From Green Rocks Sub #1:
"?????: Creeping death,\.\. the motherless man,\.\.
Janwens Revenge,\.\. the list of names goes
on and on.\|\| Phantom Slasher is just the
most commonly used name."
This should be "Janwen's Revenge".
Episode 4
From Forest #3:
"RHUE: And you were to much of
a wussy to own up to what you did?"
This should be "too".
From Event Room - SignUp:
"Shutup.\.\."
This should be "Shut up".
From the MAIN CONTROLLER of the ESTRANA map when the 0215:Spansa Dead switch is on:
"I felt something.\.\. Deep down
I knew that I couldn't let it you
die that night."
This should just be removed.
From Central Hall - Main Room:
"MEDMUR: His child is not apart of the
Vigilance Council in any way.\.\.\. They are
independent in every way according to our
agreed upon laws."
This should be "a part".
From event EV0689 in the market place:
"An item I bought from you
appears to be defective.\|
It couldn't be helped, but I
thought I'd bring _ back."
"It" should be inserted here.
From Area #15 - Core Facility
"JOPAGA: However,\.\. a wanderers
soul does not exist on the physical
plain of The Way."
This should be "wanderer's" and "plane". ("Plain" is used again shortly after this).
From the "Bottom Floor" of "The Scene":
"The first half of the grand tournament!\|
How could you forget?"
The exclamation mark can't be seen while playing the game.
From the MAIN CONTROLLER of the ESTRANA map when the 0574:Return to Balcony switch is on"
"She sounds like she was a girl
with a lot of spirit. Adventurous
ambitious and determined no
doubt."
I am not sure about this one. I think there should be a comma between "adventurous" and "ambitious" and possibly another in front of the "and".
"She sounds like she _ quite an
innocent little sweetheart."
"Was" should be inserted here.
From Entrego's Room:
"ENTREGO: She will not officially
be apart of tonight's activities."
This should be "a part".
"ENTREGO: Having our main force
disguised as Guided should help to
the infiltration effort."
This should either be replaced with "with" or removed.
From the Other Parts map:
"It does more harm then good
when you take the power out
of the hands of the people"
completely."
This should be "than".
From Ready Room #1:
"Rhue,\.\. he's no laughing matter_
Everything I've heard about his
fighting abilities is true."
There should be a period here.
Episode 5
From Central Hall - Main Room:
"PATURA: Your failure to protect
Zedicus has cost every one
dearly."
This should be "everyone".
From the Other Parts map:
"HARBRINGER: You see,\.\._the person
I'm after hasn't been brought to justice yet."
There is an extra space.
From Map 1 of The River Valley:
"DIRK: The waters of this
place _have powers to heal
ailments of the eyes.\.\|\. They
give clearer sight,\.\. heh."
There is an extra space.
From Map 5 of The River Valley:
"Okay then,\.\. is everyone ready
to _turn in for a rest?"
There is an extra space.
From the Blana Sera Temple:
"DIRK: I'm get'in tired,\.\. hope you
all don't mind if I just take a nap.\.\.
You work this out amongst yourselves,\.\.
heh."
This should probably be "gettin'".
From E5Snow6:
"Then why aren't you wearing
one,\.\. Sssslade."
This should end with a question mark instead of a period.
"What about your poor
sssistersss..."
I am not sure if you should add a question mark or not here.
From Two Meet:
"How about a little bet then."
This should end in a question mark.
From The End of the Way:
"So why don't you contemplate what's
just taken place here while I go after
Gaius.\|\. Later,\.\. loser."
The first sentence should end in a question mark.
