I just started playing Civilization V, and whenever I propose a good trade offer to a friend, they say "I graciously accept".

In my mind, this probably means one of two things:
1. A former FIRSTer helped to design this game.
2. This phrase is not as much of a grammatical sin as some of you make it out to be.

Of course, there is still the possibility that both the general FIRST populace and a random developer of Civ V are incorrect, but I would think that one of the above would be more probable than this.
