Contest
Attention all registered users with access to my protected Imperial Database:
I will be hosting a contest in which you may potentially earn hundreds of thousands of Dan-Balls. All you have to do is the following: find as many of my grammatical errors as possible and show me how they should be revised. Naturally, there are rules...
Rules:
1. You may not use any errors from the spam and staff boards as proof: anyone who does so will automatically be disqualified.
2. You must not simply identify the error, but you must also identify how it should be corrected. Do not overwrite the error with the correction: instead, place an alternately colored comment next to the error, underneath the quoted passage, or somewhere else in the PM.
3. Although I don't imagine I would need to indicate this, you must not share sources of my errors with anyone else, whether they are competing or not, unless such a person is TheListo.
4. All responses must be personal messaged to me, not revealed in this board. Any responses revealed in this board, except for those I put there myself, will not count toward the prize amount.
5. When you send a PM, send in as many of my errors as possible. Title the PM "Subtle Contest" exactly as displayed in the enclosed quotes. Entries that are not sent in such a manner will be disqualified, although the competitor may still send in corrected copies of disqualified entries.
6. You may not send in entries on behalf of other competitors.
For every grammatical error you find, prove, and correct, you will receive 5,000 Dan-Balls.
