I know that having the English correct is as important as the Spanish. I noticed that if you scroll over the badge icon, it describes it as a measure of "acheivement". "i before e, except after c..."

How is that for trivial!?!

i thought it had to be directly after the c for that rule to apply....

That rule really isn´t a rule. i before e except after a c. How about the following, Height, weight, sleigh, feint,

There must be dozens more.
