That's an easy mistake to make, but in this case 'whoever' is the subject of the clause 'X opens the box.' The overall sentence structure is research (subject) indicated (verb) clause (direct object), but within the clause it's whoever (subject) opens (verb) box (direct object). It might help to think of a similar sentence 'My research indicated that I opened the box.' You wouldn't say 'My research indicated that me opened the box.'

Pandora's Box (SSA), James Harvan, Part Three: Parental Ambiguity - 'All of my research indicated that whomever opens the Box is granted the power of Zeus' should be 'All of my research indicated that whoever opens the Box is granted the power of Zeus'

Number Six, Initial Contact: 'They had sonic fences to keep the Hamidon back, along with turret schematics stolen from Lambda sector to serve as their defense.' should be 'They had sonic fences to keep the Hamidon back, along with turrets built from schematics stolen from Lambda sector to serve as their defense.' Unless waving bits of paper in the faces of Praetorian DE keeps them at bay. 'Ha, razorvine -- this is your mama!' also Number Six, Part One: Defy the Odds, Briefing: 'There's a Seed of Hamidon making its way to way to code-name Last Bastion.' should be 'There's a Seed of Hamidon making its way to code-name Last Bastion.'

issue 27 Patch Notes for March 10th, 2021
Cinnder replied to Number Six's topic in Patch Notes Discussion
Hopefully it means we'll get an informative error instead. I was having that crash a while back and it turned out to be an update to my antivirus software. Added the game folder/subfolders to the exception list and it stopped the game from crashing. Just in case that helps you. -
Max, Dark Astoria, Initial Contact: 'Director 11 originally created our dealings with the Knives of Artemis. His knowledge of demolitions and on the foundations of the Knives of Vengeance's training grounds will prove extremely useful to the operation. That's all of the details I know about Director 11's personality.' That information had nothing to do with Director 11's personality. Probably should be: 'That's all of the details I know about Director 11's history.' or 'That's all of the details I know about Director 11's activities.' Max, Dark Astoria, Technology of the Future. mission briefing: 'We can get you inside of that facility, but from there it's up to you to get inside, rescue Slinger from Black Scorpion, and destroy that empowerment machine.' Do we have to get inside twice? :-) Should be 'We can get you to that facility, but from there it's up to you to get inside, rescue Slinger from Black Scorpion, and destroy that empowerment machine.'

Alignment tip mission, Defuse the Nemesis Booby Trap, mission entry pop-up text: 'There are a handful of Nemesis troops still inside. It looks like a few officers have already entered the building. You need to save then and prevent the trap from ensnaring more PPD officers.' should be 'There is a handful of Nemesis troops still inside. It looks like a few officers have already entered the building. You need to save them and prevent the trap from ensnaring more PPD officers.' a) A common error, but there is just one handful so the verb needs to be singular. Verb agrees with the subject of the sentence, not the object of the preposition. b) Probably just a typo.

I believe fixing this is more than just correcting a typo, as it's an artefact of the random 'Mad-Lib' nature of radio/newspaper missions. I suspect the mish text template is something like 'X is threatening to destroy...' Works ok when X = Malta or The Circle of Thorns, but in this case not so much.

Unai Kemen, Save the carnies from the Praetorians, mish briefing: 'They are the Praetorian version of our very own Carnival of Shadows, and they are major players to the Resistance against Marcus Cole' should be 'They are the Praetorian version of our very own Carnival of Shadows, and they are major players in the Resistance against Marcus Cole'
-
Unai Kemen, Get data from last dimension, mission entry pop-up: 'Tina Macintyre couldn't tell you who you'd face in this unexplored dimension' should be 'Tina Macintyre couldn't tell you whom you'd face in this unexplored dimension'
-
Maria Jenkins, The Final Chapter: Rescue Positron -- when rescued Posi says: 'I think we've not been taking the Praetorian threat serious enough.' should be 'I think we've not been taking the Praetorian threat seriously enough.'
-
Sunstorm, Investigate the Cargo Ship, mission map entry pop-up: 'A growing shadows seems to gnaw at the interior of this lurching vessel.' should be 'A growing shadow seems to gnaw at the interior of this lurching vessel.' Also, mission debriefing: 'With all the destraction and destruction caused by their attempted coup of the Council, no one saw it coming.' should be 'With all the distraction and destruction caused by their attempted coup of the Council, no one saw it coming.'
-
Sunstorm, Rescue Lillian Issan from whatever trouble she's found, mission acceptance: 'Since Lillian will assume the role of Shadowstar one day, she takes it upon herself to go beyond her job as a reporter and dig into the plans of the our enemies.' should be 'Since Lillian will assume the role of Shadowstar one day, she takes it upon herself to go beyond her job as a reporter and dig into the plans of our enemies.'
-
The power description is poorly worded. It implies that if you get defeated while the power is still active, you'll automatically be rezzed with 50% health. It doesn't do that. What it should say is something like, 'If you have been defeated, you can use this power to revive yourself and restore 50% health.' So you can use it as a buff going into a fight or save it as a rez in case you are defeated.

Angus McQueen, Catch a hostile infiltrator in the Rikti before he can return to the Council, mish briefing: 'However, I was never able to act against him without loosing my own cover.' should be 'However, I was never able to act against him without losing my own cover.'
-
Angus McQueen, Division: Line arc, end of arc debriefing: 'She worried that if the Restructurists could restore contact with the Rikti home Earth, they would likely be given free reign to continue on Earth until they achieve victory.' should be 'She worried that if the Restructurists could restore contact with the Rikti home Earth, they would likely be given free rein to continue on Earth until they achieve victory.' The expression doesn't have to do with royal rule; it's from horse-riding.

Provost Marchand, New Praetorians, Arc 3, Defeat Maestro - if you don't complete objectives before Pendragon is defeated he says: 'My apologies, but Nosferatu has bested me.' but he was fighting Maestro, so it should be 'My apologies, but Maestro has bested me.'
-
Provost Marchand, New Praetorians, Arc 2 Finale Debriefing: 'You pulled us through the brink of defeat and even destroyed a War Walker facility.' should be 'You pulled us from the brink of defeat and even destroyed a War Walker facility.'
-
Provost Marchand, New Praetorians, Arc 2 - text to click to accept mission: 'We're on it. Tell me where one of the hotspots are.' should be 'We're on it. Tell me where one of the hotspots is.' It's just one hotspot the player character is requesting. Verb should agree with the subject of the sentence, not the object of the preposition.
-
Brickstown Prison Break, pop-up message regarding timing for next event: 'The Prisoners will breakout soon...' should be 'The Prisoners will break out soon...' [breakout is a noun; break out is the verb]
-
Nature's Wrath Badge 'This hill rises like a blister above the canopy that spread like a green plaque to devour Woodvale.' should be 'This hill rises like a blister above the canopy that spread like a green plague to devour Woodvale.' Maybe this one was written by a dentist?
-
Restless Badge: 'Graveyards litter the Bay, but Shivans and Banished Panteon alike keep mourners from visiting their passed loved ones.' should be 'Graveyards litter the Bay, but Shivans and Banished Pantheon alike keep mourners from visiting their passed loved ones.'
-
Phillipa Meraux, Investigate the cave where the Lost may be storing the stolen technology, Lost holy text clue: 'You can imagine the downtrodden Lost pouring over this manuscript in wonder' should be 'You can imagine the downtrodden Lost poring over this manuscript in wonder'

Researcher Badge, Plaque 4 (Echo: DA): 'While Mayor 'Spanky' Rabinowitz was no paragon of virtue, it cannot be argued that Paragon City prospered under his guidance. Historians cannot account for this. Some have theorized that Spanky had some sort of mystical power on his side; it has even been theorized that he sold his soul to a demon in exchange for the city's well-being.' should be 'While Mayor 'Spanky' Rabinowitz was no paragon of virtue, it cannot be disputed that Paragon City prospered under his guidance.' or 'While Mayor 'Spanky' Rabinowitz was no paragon of virtue, it cannot be argued with that Paragon City prospered under his guidance.' but that second one is kinda clunky. The current text, however, means the opposite of the intended meaning: if you can't argue that the city prospered, that means all the evidence shows it did not prosper. The rest of the text clearly indicates it did.

Lvl 21 PB doing the instanced mish to deliver a valentine to Siege. This is a map that contains a bunch of non-combat Clockwork, with the only objective being to speak to Siege. When I entered Siege's room I was dismayed to see a level 45 Quantum! Luckily all the erstwhile non-com Clockwork understood that Siege's love life was of critical importance, so they toasted the Quantum before he could fire at me, but this could have gone much, much worse. Double bug: 1) Combat mobs spawning on non-combat map 2) Mobs don't spawn at appropriate level

Sunstorm, Capture Council research in Troll Tunnels, clues from glowies: (Basic N-Fragment utilization): 'This report gives a breif overview of how normal Nictus Fragments can be used.' should be 'This report gives a brief overview of how normal Nictus Fragments can be used.' (Altered N-Fragment Uses): 'This report gives a breif overview of how normal Nictus Fragments can be altered using quantum energy techniques.' should be 'This report gives a brief overview of how normal Nictus Fragments can be altered using quantum energy techniques.' And in the mish debriefing Sunstorm says: 'SERAPH will be pouring through this for months.' should be 'SERAPH will be poring through this for months.'
