| 6/23/26 |  Goa | Acronyms and initialisms are a tricky thing. In SVWAG circles, one must be careful to use proper punctuation, lest GOA imply 2022's Game of the Year (GotY, not Gotye) Guards of Atlantis. Mark remains enraged that the SC2 acronym was robbed from Greatest of All Time (GOAT, not goat, obviously) Star Control 2 by the usurper StarCraft 2.

While it is commonly held that New Jersey is a lawless wasteland ruled over by full service gas station attendants and Wawa franchise holders, the writ of the American Federal Government does in theory hold sway. As for the King, while Walker's embarrassing incident at high tea that one time in '12 didn't go over well, he hasn't been expelled from the Commonwealth yet. 1:11 AYURIS: Captain Flip (Remo Conzadori and Paolo Mori, PlayPunk, 2024) Games Played Last Week: 04:14 -Corrosion (Stefan Bauer, Capstone Games, 2021) 08:07 -Hunt for Blackbeard (Volko Ruhnke, Fort Circle Games, 2026) 16:26 -Shards of Infinity: Saga Collection (Gary Arant & Justin Gary, Stone Blade Entertainment, 2025) 19:51 -Azure (Trevor Benjamin & Brett J.

| 1/27/26 | Valheim: The Board Game | A viking fighting for Olav the Holy at Stiklestad gets an arrow in the eye. The man pulls the arrow out, his eyeball still on out it, and says: "Det jaggu nærme nasen! (That was damn close the my nose)" Another viking fighting for Olav at Stiklestad gets an arrow through his heart. He manages to pull the arrow out and study it.

| 12/30/25 | 2025 Year in Review | In some ways, the origin story of the podcast can be traced back to Sentinels of the Multiverse. Upon arriving in Kingston, Mark was at a games event at someone's home, and he saw that someone had brought a then-complete set (this was a few expansions ago) of Sentinels. He knew that this person, namely Walker, was a person worth knowing. It therefore seemed fitting that on one of Mark's last days in Kingston that he, Walker, Huey, Dewey, and Louis play Sentinels.
