In other words he clicks "Random Game" and then writes a little blurb about the game that comes up.

When it's too late to consider the brainpower needed to compose a new description, I click "Random Game" and look for corrections to make. (When I've been up too late even for that, I just play games on autopilot and take screenshots for later use. And eventually... I sleep 8)

I'm pretty much the same, except that I don't usually do screenshots for actiony games when tired. More often I'll do a bunch of IF screenshots ready to add a game.

I wonder if he really takes the first random game that comes up or if he keeps clicking until he gets one he likes :-P

Actually, I take the first game that comes up when I get on the site at about midnight on a Sunday. Do you really think that Scrapyard Dog would have been my first choice.? I hope that everyone hear enjoys this new weekly article as well as the rest of the site.

Another "nice little nod" in a way, at least, it's the first time I've heard MobyGames used as a verb, in the way Google is...:

Or intransitively, I was out-Mobyed by Sciere.

Psssh, Sciere out-Mobies all of us put together. (Do note how little of his time he wastes on the forums, instead choosing to rack up points 8)

I'm placing my bet now - within two years he'll break 100,000!
