The Taverner's Trusty Tome

2) What exactly are you quoting?

The last sentence of the cover image pictured above. The full sentence reads "Only the finest of indredients have went into the making of this product." (Emphasis mine.) The main reason I pointed this out is because a bunch of us were grousing in Meta about pet peeve grammar errors, and I said that this was mine. Morrus commented that he had never seen nor heard of this error, but imagined that if he did it would really irritate him. So it was ironic that it should turn up a week or so later in one of the products of his own publishing company.

3) Buy products.. maybe then we can actually afford to pay editors what they deserve for their work.

I have. I own Wild Spellcraft and Tournaments, Fairs & Taverns. And I do realize that EN Publishing is mostly a labor of love. Sorry if I hurt your feelings. You just pushed my grammar button.

Tensen, now I know which post you're talking about! :D

edit: fixed quote formatting

Ah.. Now I understand. That was a mockup art piece. It actually isn't part of the cover. Actually never actually made it into the final product, as our layout artist revised it heavily before use.
I was wondering where it occured in the product, now I see it was just a misunderstanding.
 

And I actually saw the real cover on the front page of this site. It's very attractive, and includes nothing but grammatically correct English!

As you say, a misunderstanding. Sorry.
 

I wonder how this would mesh with the Gnomes book you sent me. Drunken gnomes! Yeah! By the way, I recommend anyone interested in gnomes getting the Gnomes book by Dark Quest Games. :)

Ed,
Thanks for commenting on both books... they merge well enough. The gnomes, according to the Taverner's Tome, hold some responsibility for understanding the nature of brewing.

And in the Gnome cultures sections, I tried to include at least a little about the alcohol favoured or produced by that culture. I guess we're all just a little preoccupied with the generous gifts of fermentation.
