+Tarzilla Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Back on topic, those that have the ColecoVision version that CollectorVision released (which was converted from the original Memotech version) should be aware that this game was written from scratch, and has more than enough changes to warrant buying it, including different level terrains, deadly water and caltraps, a special ending screen and new music that isn't in the originals. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric7100 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Question: Why does Mine-Field have a hyphen? Shouldn't it just be Mine Field? So here I am, quoting myself. Nobody cared to answer my question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 So here I am, quoting myself. Nobody cared to answer my question? maybe this will help: Hyphen Use Summary: A comprehensive rundown on the proper use of the hyphen. Contributors:Sean M. Conrey, Karl Stolley Last Edited: 2013-06-07 09:00:40 Two words brought together as a compound may be written separately, written as one word, or connected by hyphens. For example, three modern dictionaries all have the same listings for the following compounds: hair stylisthairsplitter hair-raiser Another modern dictionary, however, lists hairstylist, not hair stylist. Compounding is obviously in a state of flux, and authorities do not always agree in all cases, but the uses of the hyphen offered here are generally agreed upon. Use a hyphen to join two or more words serving as a single adjective before a noun: a one-way street chocolate-covered peanuts well-known author However, when compound modifiers come after a noun, they are not hyphenated: The peanuts were chocolate covered. The author was well known. Use a hyphen with compound numbers: forty-six sixty-three Our much-loved teacher was sixty-three years old. Use a hyphen to avoid confusion or an awkward combination of letters: re-sign a petition (vs. resign from a job) semi-independent (but semiconscious) shell-like (but childlike) Use a hyphen with the prefixes ex- (meaning former), self-, all-; with the suffix -elect; between a prefix and a capitalized word; and with figures or letters: ex-husband self-assured mid-September all-inclusive mayor-elect anti-American T-shirt pre-Civil War mid-1980s Use a hyphen to divide words at the end of a line if necessary, and make the break only between syllables: pref-er-ence sell-ing in-di-vid-u-al-ist For line breaks, divide already-hyphenated words only at the hyphen: mass- produced self- conscious For line breaks in words ending in -ing, if a single final consonant in the root word is doubled before the suffix, hyphenate between the consonants; otherwise, hyphenate at the suffix itself: plan-ning run-ning driv-ing call-ing Never put the first or last letter of a word at the end or beginning of a line, and don't put two-letter suffixes at the beginning of a new line: lovely (Do not separate in a way which leaves ly beginning a new line.) eval-u-ate (Separate only on either side of the u; do not leave the initial e- at the end of a line.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was supposed to be Mein-Field, it is a foreign production after all.

freewheel Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Question: Why does Mine-Field have a hyphen? Shouldn't it just be Mine Field? If you're going to be a pedant, do it right. It "should" be Minefield. One word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just gonna go ahead and insult 3/4 of the forum: Explaining to an American anything that happens outside of America, hell outside of their own limited experience, is an exercise in frustration. They'll just respond back with "well *I've* never heard of it". As if that means sweet diddly. Congrats Francis, the outside world exists! There. Now everyone can gang up on me for a change 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting fact: my biological father was named stalin marx until he was 15 and my grandfather changed his name because he thought it might be a part of the reason why he was a criminal.
