Blog Update- February 2021

 January was a more chaotic month than I anticipated going in, which could honestly mean a ton of different things, but I'm talking specifically about my blog. I started working on my "Dynasty by the Bay" series, which sunk thanks to my lack of interest in continuing to play games on Madden 12. Then I did a couple of AEW reviews, that was fun but didn't quite work for me, before I finally returned to my Universe Mode, and that was what stuck. Life never quite works out the way you expect it to, but hey, at least I'm having fun.


What does that mean? Well, for starters, I'm in the process of fully updating my wiki in preparation for Season 6. No guarantees on when that work will be done, but in the meantime, you can check out the roster page to see the updated rosters for all three brands following the "Free Agency Window". It's a brand new idea on my part in an attempt to replace the outdated "WWE Draft" format. Essentially, every wrestler, save for champions, had their contract expire at the end of Season 5, making all of them eligible to sign anywhere they please. I'm happy with the way the rosters ended up, I think there was enough change to keep things fresh and set up a load of interesting new storylines. 


The plan is for Season 6 to start soon, likely within the next few days. As always, it will run all the way to WrestleMania V, which I expect should all take place on WWE 2k20. Should I push through all of that, I would then be facing a big choice over the future of the series, since it's not yet known what consoles 2k22 would be releasing on. I don't have a next-gen console, and I doubt I will by the end of the year, so we'll just have to wait and see. 


As for anything non-Universe Mode, I have considered continuing my WWE pay-per-view reviews, though with the Network being absorbed into the Peacock streaming service, this is not a great period of time to jump in. If that's something I want to return to, I would likely want to wait until March 18th when the merger goes through. That's too far off to be much of a concern right now, which is why I remain concentrated on my Universe Mode.

Curious Crab

One Monday night my mom looked into my crabitat and found that a crab had climbed into one of my fake trees. It was in the top branch. I looked in later, and found that the crab had fallen out of the tree. I hope he is okay. What a day!

American Dad "Twinanigans" Review

It's been a while since the last Steve and Roger episode, and this week reminded me why that's such a classic American Dad pairing. This is a genuinely fun episode, filled with some great one liners and even a great callback to the show's past. "Twinanigans" centers around the heretofore unmentioned acting careers of Roger and Steve, who twinned it up as the Smith Brothers. I'm not going to question whether this backstory actually makes sense to the overall timeline; no one watches American Dad for continuity. Steve had to give up acting to attend kindergarten, and wants to give Roger a second chance at greatness. The two head to auditions, where Steve impresses and Roger blows it. It's here the episode kinda misfires, as it's never made abundantly clear why Roger struggles so much at acting. Is he just trying too hard, does he have some form of stage fright, does he not even know what acting is? This part of the story is just never explained, w...

The Route of Life

dedicated to my hermits, who changed my life Ch 1 My Hermit crabs Hermit crabs are sometimes hard to take care of. Especially when you never had a hermit. Last Sunday afternoon I got 2 Hermit crabs. Their names are Crabbe and Goyle. I have talked with many sales people. The first Petco we went to (where we got the hermits and their things) seemed to have no idea on the subject. So we ended up going to Dolphin Pet Village. They were more experience at the subject. Now we have some of the things we will need. Last week, I went to a second Petco. There we got a cuttlebone, which is the bone of a fish. Now they look happy. Have a good day Hermit Crabs! Ch 2 Curious Crab The week before last week, my mom looked into my crabitat and found that one of my crabs had climbed one of my fake trees. It was on the top branch. Later, when I was changing to get ready for bed, the crab fell out of his branch. I hope he is okay. He’s definitely starting to look okay. How funny do you think that story is...
