It will always puzzle me how some people think running their text through Google Translate entitles them to a proofreading rate instead of a translation one.
@itranslategames Likely outcome. Maybe preferable to the only other option, which is ending up with a bland, barely passable (sorry, "purpose-fitting") translation. For savings of what, 10% if there's no major screw-up? There are smarter ways to cut #l10n costs

@alain_invasion More like: "We'll send you 5k words by the end of the week" *6 weeks later* "Here are the 15k words, can you have the file ready by tomorrow?"
Switch word counts if you're desperate for work.
