I cannot believe a game company make this mistake.

Good thing you ain't secondth, or thirth

I can’t believe a game company “MADE” this mistake

It is not a language mistake, it is a programming mistake

Firth

\*made :)

What country is the developer from? When I was in Sweden, or maybe Norway, I noticed they write like this, 1th, 2th, 3th, etc.

I'm glad they one firth and not seventeenst.


it’s okay. it just has a lisp

he was great in Pride and Prejudice and The King's Speech

He made landfall in the Firth of Fourth

Honestly, it's understandable if you consider how they (most likely) handle it in the code. Rather than having instructions like "if result = 1, then placement = 1st; if result = 2, then placement = 2nd" they probably had something like "placement = \[result\] + th" Programming uses a lot of little things like that to automate as much as possible, which can lead to mistakes that seem really stupid at a glance.

I can, EA and all mainstream sports game producing companies churn out this trash yearly, and everyone laps it up and buys it regardless, so there's no incentive for quality control. Having said that, if we all bought sports games that didn't have the licenses for the players' likenesses or team crests and logos, we'd have actual competition in the field.

I just read this like if you said first with a lisp. "Firtht"

I don't know how can a game invent the word **f i r t h**

What comes after once and twice ? Thirce?

egalitarianism gone mad, the first step to making all the numbers the same

You made a mistake when you wrote " . . . a game company make this mistake." People make mistakes. A friend who was in Korea for awhile said Koreans occasionally made mistakes regarding our way of way of ranking numbers, i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and so on, using things like 1rd, or . . . 1th. Possibly one explanation.

firsth

Nice, you wonth!

The grammar in your post is a little off. It could be either: I cannot believe a game company made this mistake. Or I cannot believe a game company would make this mistake. Also I would use can't instead of cannot in almost every situation.

Ah yes, ‘oneth’ - the only ‘word’ that rhymes with ‘month’… embarrassing for the developer, but it could arguably be used in a different sense: hundredth, tenth, oneth.

More common that you think actually. I see it a ton on websites. A common academic grading website uses (rd) after all its numbers, so it’s 1rd, 2rd, 3rd, 4rd.
