#13345, "evade grammar"


          

Okay, apologies in advance if this is too vague. Or too nitpicky. Valg's typo FAQ says to be nitpicky!

One of the echos you see when someone evades one of your moves is grammatically incorrect. It uses "they" in place of "he/she/it". Unfortunately I can't remember the full text of the echo. It's something along the lines of, "As Other-Guy's-Name does something nifty, THEY evade your some-skill." Should be "he/she/it evades".

I found a few echoes that had this sort of error, and fixed it to use the proper possessive pronoun instead.
