-As for our first contest, we want you to play our game -- and play it fast.  Starting with a level 1 character, see if you can run through ALL the levels of Amulets & Armor as fast as you can.  Do you play the faster Rogue or Sailor or do you depend on magical means?  Do you fight monsters for experience or do you run past them?  Record your runs and upload them to youtube and share with us your crazed runs through the levels of A&A.  And the winner who took the least amount of time will receive $40.  Unfortunately, we'll be clipping people's wings and keeping them from flying and/or blinking, but everything else is game.
+For our first contest, we want you to play our game -- and play it fast. !Starting with a level 1 character, see how quickly you can run through ALL the levels of Amulets & Armor.  Do you choose the faster Rogue or Sailor, or do you depend on magical means?  Do you fight monsters for experience or do you zip past them?  Record your runs and upload them to youtube.com, and share with us your high-speed adventures through the levels of A&A.  The player who takes the least amount of time will win $40.  Unfortunately, we'll be clipping people's wings and keeping them from flying and/or blinking, but everything else is fair game.
 = Game Play Rules =
 * Spells that allow a character to fly or blink are NOT allowed in this speed run.  However, if you find a magic item, potion, or scroll in the game that allows you to fly or blink, you may use them.  Whatever you buy in the store is also allowed EXCEPT for potions/scrolls of blink or fly.
 * GOD mode game play is NOT allowed.  Nor using any broken or buggy features of the game to your advantage.  Examples of buggy play would be: Walking through wall sections using some type of trick, duping objects or money, and attaining unlimited invulnerability.  Using spells such as Death Ward to avoid death, Earthbind to take out enemies in lava, and even finding unique ways to Attract/Repel enemies is all fair game.  We want this to be a contest of skill using the spells and features designed in the game.
-* Players must start with a level 1 character and play through the quests in order (1 to 7).  Players must use this same character through out the speed run.
+* Players must start with a level 1 character and play through the quests in order (1 to 7).  Players must use this same character throughout the speed run.
 * Multi-player runs are not allowed, only solo players.
 * Players must use characters of level equal to or lower than the quest's suggested level.  For example, if the quest says it is for level 1-3 characters, only a character of up to level 3 can be played on that quest.
