Does bookkeeper really need to maintain accuracy?[edit]
I have never seen the bookkeeper start updating the stock records after he's done updating it at full. Plus, this webpage claims that the records stay "updated perfectly forever" under "Badass Bookworm". Who is right?--Guardian of Silverybearded (talk) 01:22, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

As a newcomer, what does the "cannot grasp, though" part of this mean? "Curiously, a bookkeeper does not require writing materials such as paper or scrolls to perform his job. Bookkeepers will be unable to do their jobs if they cannot grasp, though" -it doesnt look like it makes sense, so is it a typo or some different meaning? Thanks
