Nobody said scour the document. They said "when typoes are found, fix them."

Make a thread where typoes and errors can be posted. Update the document every month. Include a changelist each time.

It'll take an hour or two every month, but it should be fairly simple, fairly manageable, and effective.

The memo was when dave and bill decided it wasn't worth fixing any more typos. Now they've somewhat changed their minds, but both seem to want just one more typo fix/upload rather than:

-once per year update lists
-as many times as is reqUired per year fix typos

Well in my checked(championed)lists i found in the second round of checking i found errors which i hadn't noticed before AND errors which still aren't fixed despite mentioned before.

So YES we need several rounds of checking and fixing errors in the lists.

dumb question...

is there a master list for each of the army lists that can be compared to the amalgamated list?

if so why don't we all pitch in, split them up and do 1 or 2 lists each and help out and get it done right rather than discussing how many times we need to edit. Post a list of each of the army lists and who has checked them, once they have been checked by 3 or 4 people then sign off of them ready for publication.

This way each list is covered by multiple sets of eyes and if we are all diligent in our checking then we should catch 99% of all errors.

if there is no master list for comparison feel free to ignore this post :)

Mosc: If you're not willing to do it, I'm sure plenty of other people will volunteer to spend half an hour a month fixing typos and reuploading it. madd0ctor just volunteered, for one.

Remember when we spotted the movement 30cm error on warp beasts just after you printed Raiders 1.0? Remember how frustrated you were that you couldn't fix it for a year? That doesn't have to be the case here, as we're not printing it.

I haven't made any decisions nor asked for my opinion. I chimed in on the thread and gave mine, like the rest of you. But way to be misinformed!

Dobbsy should be on the ERC for his hard work IMO.

We put them on the ERC, then burn them out, not the other way around...
