I don't think it really matters which one we use, decimals or commas. As long as it's separated it's fine with me.

Also, I don't see what that has to do with anything, not to mention not everything is based on 8.

So which one is based on 8? 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon, 4 cups in a quart, 4 quarts in a gallon, 12 inches in a foot, 5280 feet in a mile.

Just so everyone is aware the official measure for length and weight in the United States has been the metric system since 1893. In 1875, the United States solidified its commitment to the development of the internationally recognized metric system by becoming one of the original seventeen signatory nations to the Treaty of the Meter.

Also so everyone is aware, there is a difference between something that is official and something that is common.

Anyway ... It would really be much more easy to read if it was separated by a ',' since here in Europe most of us have done it that way from preschool. It is not that much of an issue though. Most people who have played this game for more than like ... 10 days have gotten used to this kind of separation.

A bg D*ck or a good memory, i dnt remember wat i chose

wouldn't remembering that you were given the choice indicate that you are lying about remembering what you chose? I on the other hand have no recollection of having ever been given a choice. ;)

You will need start posting here places where there are numbers that need decimal separator. We will implement meanwhile till we have all numbers in game with decimals.
