	As I have probably mentioned, I am not too bothered about the is vs was and the would vs will issue. I will freely admit that it was purely because I wasn't happy with the way you approached things and therefore I was being picky over it for nothing. Certainly, I may have changed some edits wrongly, but then again they could always change it back with an explanation, which is what people usually do. And I feel insulted because you worded it '''negatively''', not '''politely'''. Bad? Come on. It all boils down to what our understanding of it is. For example, for advent I see it used that way, and so do the translator. So if you see it in another way, than so be it. If you want to change it, at least open a discussion before changing it. Anyway, I can safely say that since I have access to the Chinese translation, I have more leeway in terms of changing such matters. For the helicopter part, no, they were not mistaken, but were unaware. In that case, perhaps it would be better to use "After boarding the helicopter, everyone else save for Miyuki, who already knew from the onset, finally became aware of what Honoka was actually doing." Will that make it clearer? Now, if you will excuse me, I would like to ask you to agree to disagree with me. I don't want to waste our time here needlessly nitpicking on the finer points of English while I could be reading other LN or doing something else with my time. -- [[User:Royaloyalz\|Royaloyalz]] ([[User talk:Royaloyalz#top\|talk]]) 08:41, 4 March 2013 (CST)		As I have probably mentioned, I am not too bothered about the is vs was and the would vs will issue.

			We have more than one translator, so there may be British-English and American English mix-ups. However, for NGNL, I prefer American English, as this was how it started out being translated as and also how I primarily edit. A good question, though.

	Royal, it looks like you're editing No Game No Life now, so I'd like to thank you. I started as the main editor of this, but since I haven't had much time on my hands recently, I've only been able to edit the small passages from PapaKiki that Obsidian puts up regularly. That aside, thank you for catching the small mistakes I've made (we're all human). I haven't gotten to some later parts of the novel, so...eh...prepare yourself for some major carnage. ~~Otherwise~~, please continue helping out with NGNL. Thank you.

	If I might make a suggestion... regarding some of the edits you've made to improve the flow of the sentences... you might want to read them aloud before committing the changes. Adding extra articles or prepositions when they can be understood from the context doesn't necessarily improve the flow. It's a 'style' thing. Sometimes it's easier to hear it when you read it aloud. ~~		If I might make a suggestion... regarding some of the edits you've made to improve the flow of the sentences... you might want to read them aloud before committing the changes.
