What happens when the King of Evil must write a blog post by manipulating a three-headed monkey to do his bidding? That’s what Teri Mae seeks to answer in this week’s Blogger Blitz match! Go check out her submission and be sure to come back tomorrow, Friday August 17th, at 9 AM EST to see the final results!
Hey everyone! By some unexpected chance, and though I hadn’t planned on participating this year, I am yet again a competitor in the coolest competition around! For those of you who missed it the first time check out Ian, at Adventure Rules, blog. He not only lists the round challenges and the overall rules, but that’s also where we will find the results! Yay! If you want to skip that article (BOO! Shame on you!) then here’s a little explanation of the rules:
- Each round of the competition has a 1000 word limit for round 1. There are no limitations on writing style. Remember to pack your 1000 words with content that helps to prove why your character is the best at the event!
- Within your own post, you define the circumstances and how difficult it is for your character to overcome the event. So be sure to craft…

Blogger Blitz: Round One: Blogger Blitzception
This week’s Blogger Bliyz match is in full swing, and if you missed the posts I’ll be reblogging them right here on Adventure Rules! First up is FlameFlash from the gaming blog Monk of Mists, who chose Sigma from the Mega Man X franchise as his villain. Will Sigma’s machinations be enough to claim the first round? Find out Friday, August 17th, at 9 AM EST here on Adventure Rules!
Okay, so first off, if you have no idea what I’m doing, neither do I. If you want a bit more background on what’s going on, I stumbled on this really cool idea over on twitter, which led me to a search for an alternative.
What the crap is Blogger Blitz and why is it in this space? Because it’s related to gaming it’ll chill over here. Blogger Blitz itself is the brainchild of Robert Shepard from https://adventurerules.blog.
You can find more details about the competition over here. Meanwhile if you’d like to learn more about those participating, Robert has an awesome post here.
Finally, if you’re curious about the events of round one, they’re outlined here.
Let’s get this party started!
As a minor aside, this post was prepared prior to Teri Mae joining the competition but fortunately this particular challenge I felt was more…

Adventure Rules Remastered: A Most Agreeable Review
Check out this review I did for A Most Agreeable Pastime nearly a year ago!
Gaming Gripes – When Executive Decisions Override Creative Directions
As part of my ongoing Adventure Rules Remastered effort, I am adding posts from other blogs which are part of my community events or in which I provided text or content. In this case, I had a great interview with Triform Trinity where we spoke about a serious gripe I have about the gaming industry. Go check it out!
A thing that often happens within the video game industry, is when games suddenly changes from their original idea. Sure, it’s not like talking about stage one from when the idea gets made and the difference in the released game at the last stage. No, I’m talking about when games completely changes from what it originally was promised to be or when what the creative directions had tried to make as their vision for us to enjoy… completely gets destroyed by executives decisions in order to make more money and therefore sacrifices the game that even isn’t completely finished upon release date.
For the third segment in the series, I’m proud to announce that today’s guest is none other than Robert from Adventure Rules. You might know him from his quite interesting Blogger Blitz or the many posts that goes into different opinion pieces about certain aspects from video games…

Musical Mayhem – with Ian of Adventure Rules!
As part of my ongoing Adventure Rules Remastered project, I wanted to share some posts that I have contributed to that didn’t originally appear here on my blog. This first one is a favorite of mine – an excellent interview with Chris over at Overthinker Y! Chris is a great guy who is a lot of fun to talk to, and we had a nice conversation that then ended in him putting together a fun song for me! I fully recommend you go check it out, and while you’re there browse through his other Musical Mayhem pieces as well.
A while back, I promised Ian that the next Musical Mayhem could be with him, as a way of congratulating him on the resounding success of his Blogger Blitz event. Unfortunately, I took flipping ages to do the one with NekoJonez, so this is a little bit… post-end-of-event. Nevertheless, we’re here now, so let’s dive in!
As usual, this takes the form of an interview about all sorts of things, followed by me writing a track for my guest and then coming back to quickly discuss what I was able to come up with. For those who are overeager, you can skip to the track itself simply by clicking here, but you’d miss out on a lot of good stuff if you did!
By the by, previous chats have explored a few avenues, but this might be the deepest and least music-related one so far. Ian will…
