Ok, skadorna var mindre än jag hade väntat mig. Vi återställde en hel del av platserna eftersom att vi av en ren slump gjorde en backup i går. En den fordon kan nu plötsligt ha förflyttats eller orsaka buggar om du tex har lämnat en hamn inom de närmaste dagarna. Om du saknar en byggnad eller upplever någonting konstigt, var vänlig och rapporteradet det till bugs@cantr.net. Ber än en gång om ursäkt om det har ställt till några svårigheter för dig.
OK does somebody want to report this to
bugs@cantr.net, like the man said? I'm too busy laughing.

Maybe I have a weird sense of humour, It just struck me as funny that the request to report bugs should be so thoroughly buggy that we can only guess what it says (unless we're Dutch? )-
especially coming after the announcement --" I just made a huge typo..."
Anyway, Bran-Muffin where should it be, then?
Erm..on second thoughts, don't answer that.

LOL, yeah, I saw that earlier. All I understood was 'Ok' and the e-mail address.

Though I've seen weird glitches a couple of times before where buttons and things were in the wrong language, so this isn't the first time.

Definitely not Dutch, else I could easily read it--it's one of the Scandinavian languages, I think.

It's not Dutch, it's Swedish, by the way.

OK, yeah, it's Swedish and advising people who experience problems with ships which have left port a few days ago, or who are missing a building, or otherwise experience anything strange, to contact bugs, etc. And apologizing for any inconvenience.

As a former Languages Department member, I understand how this mistake was made.
The Swedish translator must have accidentally changed the English version of the announcement, rather than the Swedish.
I've done the same before.
