It's more that auto-correct is not context aware, and as both it's and its are valid, it doesn't tell you "hey, you need to fix this", and thus it's easy to miss.
Especially as "apostrophe s" is generally the possessive, but in this case it's not. can trip you up.

Autocorrect should not be touching its/it's (except to capitalize them, if they're at the beginning of a sentence). Either go in and manually change that part of the autocorrect, or disable the autocorrect.

Also, you should not be relying on autocorrect to tell you when you should use a given word that has one or more other words that sound exactly like it. Learn the difference yourself (there are relatively few cases of this, anyway) and come to know them by heart (especially since all of the contraction-type ones can be manually tested in your head in a second or two until you know the difference without even having to think about it).
 
When you say that something owns something, you say "its".

When you mean to say "it is", you say "it's".

Auto-correct can be annoying sometimes.

It doesn't touch them, which is the issue for some people.

I know the difference, I was simply explaining how it can be an issue for other people. Was that not clear?
 
Are all these updates all typed up in a word processor document before being pasted to here? That would explain what happens here.

On a side note: ...Seriously? The talking plan actually won!? Sonna... Sonna bakana!

Welp...depending on how things go, I may just have something in mind for after the update.
 
@crystalwatcher, roughly how many more updates do we have before the update with the next kaleidescope? As in, how many updates before the final stretch to the next post we're asleep in? This is important for my Minecraft addiction.

It shouldn't touch them. That's the point; autocorrect can't tell context very well. And it's such a simple grammatical rule (and a vital one) that it should be learned and understood. Autocorrect isn't there to cover for a lack of knowledge about a language, nor is it there to correct simple grammatical mistakes that come from using the wrong word.

Sorry; I meant the general "you", not you, specifically. In this case, I guess, I meant it for crystalwatcher, specifically.

Quite a while.

Also: You guys wanted to know who was pissed off?

In the Update said:
Then the world breaks. Cracks suddenly cover everything as a crash echoes around the chamber in a sudden symphony of destruction and attention shifts to the fully healed and whole Goddess White. Eyes a blazing white, the light that spills forth from her form is almost blinding in intensity. "You'll pay for that." The calm of her voice belies the raw surge of killing intent that suffuses the room. And for the first time you are treated to the rare sight of a Goddess not holding back.

I knew diplomacy would not work on the crazy bitch. This is why violence is always the answer when it comes to Magical Girls. The only way your words get through their heads is if you send it to them on the end of a giant laser beam to the face.

I think you accidentally a word, there.

EDIT: What....okay, the quoted text doesn't match the post I'm seeing right in front of me. The "not" isn't there, but it is in the quoted text. The fuck?

I'm guessing that Angel WEAPON tried to do a sneak attack while we were talking.

Oh dear god. If we get out of this without everyone dying, it will only be due to sheer dumb luck.

I'll just say that you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Lovely. Absolutely lovely.

Do we wanna somehow bring out Gehaburn? That might be the only thing that might do anything.

Or does she go I HAVE THE ULTIMATE POWAA then blow herself up. I remember that happening to someone in Renegade Sorceress Quest.

Considering when Solid Core blew up, she took out everything that wasn't Rei (and even that was more due to Rei being far away that she could actually react in time to save her life) in a...either 15 or 25 mile radius. I want to say 15 miles, but for some reason 25 keeps popping up in my head.

Huh. I guess the name actually meant something.
 
White Goddess not holding back only does that much?

I mean wow, I bet with our two big defense upgrade we could tank that for theoretically forever... given set up time :V

25 is correct.
