If anyone can provide a release date for the game in the UK, that would be great. All I know is that it was released in the UK before the US. Thanks! --TheWoj 22:21, 16 December 2006 (PST)

  • I googled the ASIN number with "released", and got 3 URLs that claim Sat. July 15, 2006 as the UK release date: [1], [2], [3] -- C¯ _Santa_ ¯T 01:18, 18 December 2006 (PST)
    • Thanks! Article has been updated accordingly.--TheWoj 12:49, 18 December 2006 (PST)

Cases

I do not understand why all the cases of "The" were changed from uppercase to lowercase regarding "Lost: The Board Game" and "Lost: The Game."

"If the introductory phrase preceding the colon is very brief and the clause following the colon represents the real business of the sentence, begin the clause after the colon with a capital letter
Remember: Many of the prominent families of this New England state were slaveholders prior to 1850." [4]

In this case, the statement of "The Game" is an explanatory phrase regarding the nature of the statement, separating Lost: The Game from Lost, the series.

Lost: The Official Magazine and Lost: The Video Game are similar cases which have not recieved the same treatment, although the latter has less text to work with. --TheWoj 01:27, 29 December 2006 (PST)

  • OK as it was me who did it (according to the history), I'll chip in. I have a piece of software installed that, at the click of a button, changes all of the cases to the correct ones. I didn't create it, so I can't control that it changes 'The' to 'the'. Indeed, whenever I have seen "Lost: The Board Game" on a page, I have ensured that the 'The' isn't changed to 'the'. This is getting confusing lol. What I'm trying to say is that I didn't do it to annoy, I must have just missed it when I was doing it yesterday. I did a lot of case changing yesterday :-) Sorry for any inconvenience. --   Lost Soul   talk  contribs  02:12, 29 December 2006 (PST)
    • Thanks for clearing it up! Enjoy your new year!--TheWoj 23:11, 30 December 2006 (PST)

Suitcase!

Did you guys know that the game also comes in a silver suitcase w/ the word "LOST" written in huge letters on the front cover? Should I add this?? WeirdAl 08:32, 17 April 2007 (PDT)
