This is how I solved a recent terminology, style, or linguistic challenge

Troubles with terminology

After extensive research and discussion on MMORPG terminology, we decided to go with the translation found in the Total War Warhammer 2 guidebook. Nothing better than finding a perfect solution for a problem.

This is what motivates me to do my best work

My past mistakes

My past mistakes made me who I am today. I make sure not to make past mistakes and always proofread my work 4~5 times with 10 minutes rest between reads.
