Its not your turn need an apostrophe.
To be even more of a grammar nazi, specifically the word "its" needs an apostrophe between the "t" and "s". Someone might have thought that you meant "your" needs an apostrophe. ![]()
I fear the apostrophe died and was buried in a shallow grave just outside Mayfield, Nebraska.
LOL!
Mayfield sounds like a nice place to be buried
I know from official yet anonymous sources that the apostrophe was buried beside Jimmy Hoffa...
Jimmy Hoffa is alive & living on a small farm just outside Mayfield, Nebraska.
Thanks for sharing these! And for not being too hard on us. We'll amend with the next patch. Please do let us know if you find more.
excellent. an addition to my grandiose - yet accurate - list of weewar accomplishments

If I may add my point of view:
I dont think the use of "its" should be promoted in the first place. A more corect and satisfying way of saying it would be: "It is not your turn". "Its" should be used in spoken and casual english, but not in formal written.
Btw: did I spot a slight change in the background, saying: someone else is playing written in diagonal? Or was that always there?
that used to be there but went missing at some point. we simply brought it back![]()
@Streen-
"I dont think the use of "its" should be promoted in the first place. A more corect and satisfying way of saying it would be: "It is not your turn". "Its" should be used in spoken and casual english, but not in formal written."
it's = 'it is', a contraction of two words, like he's (he is) or can't (can not).
its = singular gender-neutral possessive pronoun, used to indicate ownership, like 'his' or 'ours'. "The business was unable to find a market for its product and was forced to close."
This is similar to the common confusion of you're (contraction of you are) and your (singular second-person possessive pronoun), probably the most rampant error on the web today.
I agree that contractions should be avoided in formal writing, but when are forums ever formal? ![]()
