An number of sites I like and visit often
Ausgate
Description: A Stargate role play game
Contains: Trivia questions, games (MALPS), battles, factions, collecting and trading of SG based items
Why: I've been a member of this site for over 10 years and it's still fun. If you join and are looking for a faction I'd recommend the AoC ;)
The Blockheads

Why: One of the most time wasting games there are. If you want to know why I haven't done as many updates lately this is one of the reasons. It is fun though ;)
