Goblin Gaming; Yakuza in 2023?

These days, finding a multiplayer game can be difficult. Especially one that meets the needs of your whole group, whether it be 2, 3 or even 5. Recently, Remnant 2 dropped and the AF crew dropped everything to complete it. Nothing else was out yet for us to play together. Enter Yakuza: Like A Dragon (2020). This Goblin has always enjoyed watching Xaroc play games. Scarier, the better- but I’m…

Any seasoned Minecraft vet knows that random map seeds can be problematic; not the desired biome, not enough elements or materials for survival etc.. Chunkbase just cuts out the guesswork of whether or not your map seed is worth putting hours of work into or not, before…

In love with a Manticore; the new metal detector by Minelab!

In love with a Manticore; the new metal detector by Minelab!

The Manticore, by Minelab Australia. I am fresh in my obsession with Metal Detecting and Prospecting. However, I feel like this fever has been with me since the beginning, since I was a wee country lad living in Korong Vale, Victoria. One of the small outback towns in the Golden Triangle. Wedderburn was just around the corner, and quite frequently, my family would drive to Bendigo for long term…

Sucking Down a Dead Frog for Judgement.

‘Dead Frog’ drinky drink, it sounded too good to be true!

This Goblin occasionally has a craving for fizzy dizzy drink. I’ve heard some call it, ‘beer’. But that doesn’t sound right to this Goblin. So when someone introduced this Goblin to, ‘Dead Frog’ drinky drink, it sounded too good to be true; it’s a frog I can drink?? Sounds like my kind of thing! The Spriggans always offered each other frogs for medicinal purposes, but this Goblin was always too…

What The Fungible?

What are NFTs? Maybe like our very own Xaroc, you’re confuddled when it comes to this particular fad. Art that you can’t physically possess? This is food for thought.. Wikipedia says “A non-fungible token (NFT) is a financial security consisting of digital data stored in a blockchain, a form of distributed ledger” but lets face it, that means little, if anything to the majority of people,…

Dogsitting with a Squeaky Kong Ball in Hand

“Dogsitting is wrought with responsibilities that you must hold above yourself. Some see it as great practice for the one day you, yourself, have a companion animal. However I see it as a necessary service to give owners a chance to get away from the fur and slobbery faces.”The Fuzz, after three weeks of being smothered in husky and shepherd fur. Right now, while I’m writing this, I am chilling…

A Bunny Named Wolf

A Bunny Named Wolf

Who is this mysterious, confusing person? A bunny named Wolf? Isn’t that a contradiction?A very good question, indeed, because it doesn’t have one easy answer. See, I’m a Wolf of many faces, many skills, some of them I like to share, others are available for a price. A more pertinent question might be “How did you end up here?” because that would be a long story but I’ll save that for…
