This was already reported in March 2010, somewhere in the second page. I recommend checking with the wiki if the typo is already reported (though of course one can simply go over the entire thread and make sure).

From the character sheet:

To-hit ability: 110
Dodge ability: 90
Offensive power 1
Defensive power: 5

Offensive power is missing a colon.

When you have an old friend for a sidekick, and you use another phone number:
Your friend admits that she lost your phone number at some point, too, so your write yours on the back of the only slip of paper handy and give it to her.

Quite minor, all the effect for decrypting codes don't use the standard capitalization for effects, which is to capitalize every word.

Maybe I don't get it, on the barred bard:

I'm pretty sure this one suddenly popped up - the General at the inner sanctum of the Unborn Base now has an indefinite article, and it is always "an", .e.g. You are fighting an General Hospital.

When using the jester kit:

Your undestudy opens the kit

Muhandes · Post by **Muhandes** » Mon May 02, 2011 11:06 am

The jester's attack message ends with an extra period:

Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler bops your opponent over the head with a rubber mallet. It seems innocent, but this rubber mallet is coated in lead. Your opponent takes 32 damage..

Muhandes · Post by **Muhandes** » Mon May 02, 2011 11:38 am

The Jester's fire attack has two typos:

Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler assautls your opponet

Muhandes · Post by **Muhandes** » Mon May 02, 2011 2:17 pm

When one uses a TNT in combat while the jester is the sidekick:

When you produce the tnt, Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler grabs it

"tnt" should be capitalized.

* undestudy => understudy
* possibly fixed the general's indefinite article?
* barred bard: feat => feet
* everwhere => everywhere
* colon on character sheet for offensive power

Today, when I fought Mister Uh-uh, I noticed that all of his hit messages had the wrong pronoun, as in: "They hit you for X damage."

EDIT: I noticed the same thing with another wandering villain:
Cappy Capi fries you with his patented Habanero headbutt, causing your entire head to burst into flames. They hit you for 6 (fire) damage.

Post by **Ryme** » Tue May 17, 2011 5:46 pm

Should be fixed. Was a side-effect of the previous "fix" for multiples not displaying right. Turned everything into a plural!

After you defeat The Mick, and you go see Susan Novak, you get a big block of text. The paragraph that starts with "Of course it's a tremendous risk" is missing a quotation mark at the beginning.

It's a mystical property of white noise. There's a little bit less knuck in the plural than in the singular.

Kidding, of course. Fixed.

At the end of the Level 10 quest, after getting the Nostronomium and bringing it to the Elco Hoist Labs:
I hadn't expected so small amount to be so volatile.

It looks like "small" and "amount" should have an "an" between them.

EDIT: Corrected my mistake.

The "have" is missing right? If so, the singular forms need to be fixed as well.

From "Computer Graveyard":
One of the back rooms is stacked from floor to ceiling with old computers. Probably the computer is too cheap and/or lazy to recycle the old boxes and just dumps them in here.

That looks like it should be the "computer guru" or "computer department" that is cheap and/or lazy.
I mean, I've seen a few cheap computers, but never a lazy one.
