Hi
I am new on the site and it appears that the game King of Tokyo isnt properly translated. I one day wanted to help with that, but when I tried, I was told that I need to be a user of BGA for atleast a month before start translating. I have seen a few really bad translations and ALOT that isnt translated at all. And today I even saw some cards now have been translated using Google Translate. Because the variables was translated aswell...
So please, can I be given some kind of exeption to that rule, so I can start change things for the better.
Thanks in advance

FYI, google auto-translate in Swedish was introduced yesterday:
viewtopic.php?f=11&t=23566
It might be affecting the game now.
If a user confirms auto-translated texts without proofreading, the user responsible for such an act should be reported.

Yes, I assumed something in the update, but how about let me fix that game to swedish. I can gladly translate those instrunctions manually.
Regards

In principle, variables should be protected against machine translation (except if the developer has been creative setting up non-standard variables, it happens

)
I have updated your account to give you the right to translate, so you should be able to fix issues in Swedish. Thanks for your help!

I still can't translate texts, found a bad translation on the main website but wasn't able to modify it.

It says:
You can start proposing translations only when one month has elapsed after your account creation.

Ok, I made you (virtually) a little older. Hope that's good now!
