BB-Mark has a note suggesting he is too popular to receive BB-mails now, so perhaps he'll see this thread regarding the rules.... ;-)

Draft rules
No funny quote. Only section that is missing such a thing.

Weekly Schedule
Copy from rules page, paste into Word, Print.
If you do this to get a hard copy, Word has one of it's small microsoft seizures and displays odd numbered rows as white text on white background, and even numbered rows as white text on a light grey background. Not very user-friendly (even *I* struggle to read white text on white background...)

Other English language versions?
A similar problem as in Hattrick - US and English users are very particular about their own version of the language. Is it possible to have a US English and an English English version please? Pretty please?

I think International English could be introduced even if it is a number of minor changes compared to what the LAs are doing

Clearly all of the English on this site was written by North Americans. We're more than happy to set up a "Queen's English" translation if you're willing to put in the work of translating text. If you want to become a Language Admin, send a BB-Mail to BB-Mark (he'll answer, I promise) and we'll set you up.

I think a "real" English translation would be great (I'm from Canada myself, and we speak more real English than American English). I'll set you up as an LA.

I would be interested in helping out with this as well.

they speak English in England? sure coulda fooled me....
;)

Well, I think the main problem is our inability to play basketball over anything else ;) (although poaching Luol Deng on the basis he lived here for a few years is probably going to help our national side a little...)

Weekly Schedule - Use the Paste Special and copy only the text. IE and word/excel are funny that way because it wants to do more than it's is supposed to
