The Missing Name in the Ledger
A sack of correspondence arrived this cycle, every envelope asking why a different name had been omitted from the honours ledger. The clerk has replied that the ledger contains ten places, while the petitioners have nominated enough worthy candidates to occupy three additional wings. This arithmetic has satisfied nobody. Several correspondents have offered to bring their own shelves, though none has volunteered the time required to dust them.
Newly shelved:
- Where’s Game X? A Top 10 Discussion — community favourites, absent old friends, and the distance between loving a game and setting it up.
From the deeper stacks, the two recent ledgers to which these objections pertain:
- Top 10 Adventure Games of All Time (2026 edition) — Outer Rim enters, Paupers’ Ladder yields, and Arkham Horror returns to the chair of honour.
- Top 10 Dungeon Crawls of All Time (2026 Edition) — familiar corridors meet fresh contenders, all tested against the requirement of recent table time.
Planned excavations resume next cycle.
