Regarding the Outspark Terms of Service.

Guys, breaking the Outspark Terms of Service is not allowed. There is some leeway allowed until an Outspark official/GM says otherwise (Ex. Fonts). We don't want people to see us as a bad place, do we?

I've also updated the official forum rules with this.

The verb "is" is referring to leeway, which is singular.

No, the sentence is correct as written. Compare with: "There is some room."

"Some" is a quantity describing leeway. Think of it as an adjective, or the way Valen described it.

There is some pizza left.

If you knock off the "some," the basic meaning of the sentence remains intact:

There is pizza left.
