    Good work all :)

    My native toungue isnt english as u know and i dont know if im correct about this but better to ask then not;

    We feel it is important to note this Petition has its genesis in the deep passion the signatories feel for the Total War series and that our only goal is to help you improve the multi-player portion of this fascinating game you have created. I hope it is obvious we would not go to such lengths as a community if we did not feel a very strong fondness for the Total War series, a strong desire to see the series survive and flourish, and an equally urgent need or action on your part.
    This is from the second part of text in the petition, if you look at last sentence in the quote it says "urgent need OR action" shouldnt it be urgent need FOR action? Sorry if im wrong.

    One other thing is that the text says "to make the game more perfect" (freely quoted), if it is perfect then why we need this big petitionthing? Maybe instead say "to make the game better". This was just a quick reflection and to change it might not be better - i dont know.



    Apart from this i saw there were questions where ff and tenjo are with their signatures.

    I signed and I used to be in FF and I think I saw Almircar had signed also and he also was in FF. There are still people in FF though and I asked Annie the other day if she would sign and it sounded like she would, ill ask her again when see her again.

    As for Tenjo, I am currently a member of Tenjo clan and maybe should have signed with Tenjo_Kalle but in the diffrent forums I allways just signed things with Kalle. Satake and Himelady I think posted at .com that they would like to be added to the petition - i will direct them here if necessery but I think Satake had some problems logging in. Ill make a post about it at Tenjo-forum.

    Best regards

    Kalle

    Thx Kalle :)
    good spots.

    On your point about 'perfect', I have substituted language which communicates our request and suggests that is is commercially valuable to improve the MP experience. There is, I note a good thread on this subjuect here.

    When I talk to Kyolic I 'll get him to address your changed names and clans.

    We would love to have Anniep as signature, the last thing we will do is close the signature list.

    Dreadlahl:- I know where you are coming from, but we have to stay credible. IF we can establish a measure of contact then perhaps we can address 'wanted' at a later date? Is this fair?

    *edit 5 reflects Kalle's post*
    Also I have addressed this to CA. It may at some stage be sensible to send it on to Activision. But at this stage it is clearly CA which is the author of the software.

    Kalle,

    "for" action you are correct. You have better english skills than most americans, I'll tell you that. I've made that change and also changed
    "more perfect" to "create a superior"

    hmmm, maybe I better check my email for os's latest version. . .

    very close now.
