The year was 2005, and it was spring. I had been working at my first post-graduate programming job for about 2 years, and my PC was an aging Pentium-3 600.

I’ll know how many reviews I’ve done via the spreadsheet, and the post titles will be shorter and easier to search for. Here’s the first of the ‘unnumbered’ reviews: Volgarr the Viking.
