    I just noticed something...

    In the game genres, there is a typo. "Tower defence" should be "Tower defense" Just pointing that out.

    "Defense" is actually the correct American spelling. As our US users are greater then our UK users I figured it was more appropriate to use the American spelling.

    It would be wise to show that APH is not culturally or linguistically one-sided. I am a Canadian user, and I live in a country in which we use UK spelling.

    And no, we do not say "eh" at the end of every sentence and drink maple syrup.
    Have a good one. Always.

    Really? Dang it >: (
    P.S is a spelling error that much of a big deal?

    Don't be so stereotypical. Our country has less crime/violence rates then the US, we have universal healthcare, goddamn good coffee and donuts and Tim Horton's, and swag in Vancouver.

    But yes, even a small spelling mistake reflects on the overall professionalism of the site.
    Have a good one. Always.

    You forgot to add 'EH at the end.

    "Tower defence" is the correct English spelling. You put the correct English spelling, not the correct American spelling.
