Anyone who has submitted a gameplay tip/trick or a one-shot image may be wondering why it hasn’t been posted yet. Louis has been slowly converting the site to a très swankèy database setup that’s a vast improvement over the old applescripts-and-BBedit platform we used to run.

Several of them were high in the trees, freshly cleaned in a river. And looking about nervously. The Covenant bite off more than they can chew in Part 2…
