Depends on how detailed the cross-check should be, I guess. I'm just suggesting it because I might be the only active Norwegian user on this forum. I know there have been some, but I lost track.

Yes, I know that too now, I simply hadn't heard of it beforehand. I didn't want to screw up the referral either. =P

Well we have five lone translators... it would be really nice if we could get some more people for those languages.
What do you Swedes think about Muffin's idea of checking the Norwegian and Danish? That would at least get two more done.
or should I just forgo the two person rule, assume people know what they are doing, and rely on Alias' idea of using a translator to check for shenanigans. A couple of you offered to check languages you aren't real familiar with too...
Whatcha all think?

Oh, I should probably also mention that I'd be able to check the Danish translation should that ever be necessary. Even though we have tons of just-as-qualified Swedes... well, yeah. Thought you should know.
About using a translator... It's certainly one of the worst options, but an option none the less. If we really need to, I think it should do an all right job.

I know it will mess up the grammar, but it will at least find extreme cases of insults as translaters will translate those also (and often they get translated well). Same as with words that dont translate, they either show bad spelling or another insults... And in those cases google often shows what it means in its search results.
Its not the best solution but at least something.

I can do the same.
Edit: If still necessary, I see you already have 3 guys for Dutch.

Then again, no one actually suggested to use them primarily.

I think it's okay. Game instructions are supposed to be very simple anyway, we're not trying to translate high-grade litterature, here, so even with school-level language knowledge, pepople should be able to easily check for "shenanigans" as you say.

German translation is ready, but I actually found the original English description to be a little confusing. The Intel Sapper should probably have another name, not just "Sapper", because that's the Spy's weapon. =/
It's a minor thing, but I wanted to mention it.
