How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

this has bugged me for a while, taking up way more space than it needs to
so much cleaner and easier to read

Agreed.

good idea

by **JBlombier** on Thu May 21, 2015 5:45 pm

It seems obvious. I never liked it when they changed it to Player X has a score of 1234 points, because I can see that for myself. But alright, if you want to show it (maybe someone suggested it?), the OP is damn right it shouldn't be in two separate sentences.

We scroll enough in the Age of the Internet, this is an easy fix to end a little bit of scrolling. Plus, it probably saves a tiny bit of serverspace. We have a saying in our country that says: "All the little bits count". Whether it be bits or bytes, I can only assume ya'll agree on this one.
