    The word "Sematary" ?

    A lot of you were wondering why the word "Sematary" was spelled this way in-game
    This word is in fact a direct reference to a horror novel, but who is the author? Please vote!

    Hello guys,

    To produce pumpkins you must purchase a pumpkin 'sematary' from the gem shop.

    The gem shop is located on the upper right hand corner (the blue gem that doesn't have a + sign).

    You will find them listed under Halloween Event.

    Hope that's of some help.

    Good luck,
    Sinister-King

    There are many players who do not have English as first or even second language, and have to rely on translators to understand what's needed in the game. Using a word like "sematary" instead of cemetary does them no favours. The spelling was used in the Pet Sematary novel as it was how small children might have written it, so it was in a believable context. Why BB would want to perpetuate that misspelling is, however, a mystery.

    I suspect that BB just made another spelling boo-boo with sematary and are trying to cover it up. They can't spell forest (Forrest), where the wolves are and they can't spell veldt (veld) where the sons are and they can't be bothered fixing them up. There are also group name inconsistencies and 'a' and 'an' errors. Should not perpetuate errors, looks unprofessional.
