Looking Back on “A Laggy Boat Ride” (SGZ Plays MC #5)
The title, the thumbnail, and the lag “A Laggy Boat Ride” was a laggy mess. At least in its original form, anyway. I’ll start with the title. It isn’t exactly a title that entices you to watch the episode. If anything, it deters you from watching it. It mentions the worst part of the entire…

Another Story Begins…
I’m putting those Bing Rewards credits I’ve got to good use. 😛 I’ve been wanting to play this game for a while now, but I didn’t really have the money to spend. But over time I’ve managed to accumulate a whole bunch of credits on Bing Rewards, and they temporarily reduced the price of the…
