Sips is one of the several spin-off accounts of the Yogscast's BlueXephos gaming channel. Originally the web designer and first making his appearance in a Yo G Po D, where he was repeatedly called up by Simon and Lewis in what resulted in a "narrowly avoided Sipsgate", he made a few appearances before he created his own channel. Popular series include "An Evening With..." where he plays a new game each episode, and Lets Plays of Dig-n-Rig, Orcs Must Die and Atom Zombie Smasher.
Another one of his popular series is a Let's Play of Towns; notably, the developers of Towns added him into the game as a hero, Sips the Campmaker, who has the ability to summon the ghost of Sadon. [1]
He also has a Twitter and a Tumblr.
Sips provides examples of these tropes:[]
- Canada, Eh?
- Catch Phrase: "You magnificent/beautiful bastard."
- Deadpan Snarker
- Dissonant Serenity: His voice never changes. Ever. Sometimes Played for Laughs.
- Double Entendre: Plenty. Usually contributes to the Ho Yay/Faux Yay.
- Gag Penis: The Space Penis.
- Heterosexual Life Partners: At the very least, he and Sjin are this.
- Lemony Narrator: Very often.
- Perp Sweating: In their Minecraft Let's Play, Sjin and Sips build an interrogation room for this purpose. With an um, stripper pole.
- Good Cop, Bad Cop: Sjin as the good cop, and Sips as the bad cop. Except for when Sjin breaks character and starts swearing at Udders.
- Running Gag:
- Before he fixed it, Sips' "toaster mic".
- The extremely awkward string of "Bye"s at the end of Minecraft videos.
- Sips making fun of Juliana's weight in his Towns playthrough. Even after she dies.
- Scandalgate: Sipsgate, of course.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Sips, completely cornered in a game of Worms Reloaded just gives up and has his last worm jump into the water.

Sips: You know what? Fuck you guys. Fuck this game. Fuck you. *jumps* |

- Suddenly Voiced: Udders Malone.
- Surreal Humor: Any commentator who can go into detail about the Beaver Mafia bombing their house probably deserves a mention.
- Whenever he and Sjin talk about movies and start throwing in random actors and plotlines.
- Troll:
- His Anno 2070 antics, where he wasted his team's money just to pave an island. And then he drew a troll face on it.
- He interrupts a livestream several times for no good reason other than checking how loud his mic is.
- Xtreme Kool Letterz: Initially put an underscore in his Minecraft name since someone else had taken the name Sips. Now he keeps it just because.
- ↑ The name is a reference to a Dungeons and Dragons Yo G Po D, in which Sips spent the majority of the adventure setting up camp, while the ghost of Sadon references his playthrough of his first town, Sipsville.
