@RaeleeI don't want to get TOO carried away with it ('cause
LRM will have me ARRESTED!!) but I'll say it again here. I won't claim to speak for EVERYBODY in the lagoon, but I'm confident that anybody who has more than a passing familiarity with your contributions to the forum and these games will agree with me.
In my humble opinion, you don't owe us ANY apologies. On the contrary - WE owe YOU a debt of gratitude.
If we place your "shortcomings" one one side of the balance and your contributions on the other, I suspect that lady justice would be inclined to raise the corner of her blindfold. Even SHE would be a bit suspicious of any evidence that was SO CLEARLY LOPSIDED!!
As far as I'm concerned, you could have presented the translation in ESPERANTO without damaging your reputation. Anybody who has inspired a character in a Shark game has earned MILES of wiggle room.
Happy Holidays, young lady - and enjoy your trip! From what I've been reading, you have a handful of issues that deserve your full attention. Don't let a few typo's worry you.
Although this smiley has been getting a lot of use lately, I haven't seen anything else that fits so well:

Thanks, Raelee
