Syaz always arrives on the dot.
verb. To poke, prod, or urge activity from someone who is being idle or otherwise procrastinating.
Originating in the god-game series "Populous" by Peter Molyneux (also creator of the Fable series), wherein you could get idle villagers doing nothing in a house to leave and create a new settlement by "sprogging" them. Potentially related to the once derogatory noun "sprog" in British slang, which means a child. Now often used as a term of endearment.
The term saw more general usage outside gaming among Gen-X gamers and older Millennials for any type of compelled activity.
