I’m not a holiday person — not the winter holidays, anyway. But I have a few things I consider “traditions,” and making sure I listen to Tim Minchin’s ‘White Wine in the Sun‘ is one of them. In fact, I was almost going to name this Queue after it, but then I remembered… I already did that last year. Fittingly enough, he even posted a photo of (what I presume to be) the location he sings about in the song.

Anyhow, Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate, and happy holidays to those of you who don’t. Let’s see if I can’t make this an extra special Queue, eh?

When it comes to writing and MMOs, it can be hard to differentiate good writing and bad writing from writing we actually just do or don't like.

Y’know, my gut instinct when I first saw this month’s Splatfest was to go with Team Villain. Makes sense, right? I’m evil, etc. etc. — but then I looked at the actual list of characters on each side. Link, not surprisingly, was on the heroes side, however.

Link is my main.

So, I went with Team Heroes, and it… well, we didn’t win. And now I’m thinking that I should’ve just counted Dark Link — who is not an Echo Fighter like Dark Pit is — as Team Villain and called it a day with that decision.

Oh well. I suppose we should Queue.

Just a few days after patch 8.1 hit World of Warcraft, the intrepid secret-hunters had already solved the big(gest) riddle the patch had to offer -- that of the Hivemind mount.

Anyone who's a regular reader of my Queues will know I have a monthly tradition of reporting on the Splatfests that occur in Splatoon 2.

Happy patch day, everyone! I’m writing this from the past, so I have no idea if the patch’s launch has gone smoothly or horribly awry. Maybe it’s somewhere in between. Regardless, I hope patch day finds you well and that you’re not one of the classes whose changes are painful to endure.

Let’s Queue, eh?

Today's the day.

World of Warcraft is an enormous game.

Tuesday marks the first major patch for Battle for Azeroth, and while it's obviously not as major as one of WoW's pre-expansion patches, it's still big enough that players may have some pre-patch goals to hit.

Oh, hello, all! I suppose it’s Tuesday, innit?

Guess that means we’re Queuing!
