Welcome back to The Weekly Grind, San Vanners! Let’s roll! What’s going on? Week 7 of Season 5 is upon us, and The Curse of Morg has fully begun. Isle of Morg is Open Access until Nov 3, when the Curse of Morg ends. During Open Access, the cursed ferry to Isle of Morg will require no skate.Premium Pass or Rip Chips to board, so you can see what has been going on over there.
Not only that, we’ve got new Weekly Bounties! Don’t forget, the Season 5 blog has the details for this season.
