Care for a light? B-|
I think I need to napalm the area, just to make sure nothing remains. :-)

CarrionCrow: You actually buying yourself games regularly? That'd be an event bordering on the astounding. ;)
It's hard to do when I only have 4 games left on my wishlist to get. It's not like I can buy games often for myself with so few games on the list. :-)
avatar
CarrionCrow: Yes, definitely. It's better to know than not know.
I've been reminded that if I miss a sale, it's not even close to the end of the world. Typing out every entry does the trick for that quite well. It also reminds me that if I want to do things smart, I need to stick to sales as much as possible since it's the only way I've been able to accumulate what I have in the amount of time it took.
Yes that's true.
Aside from missing the community during a sale :)
I realise that actually every time i buy something and it shows you how much you're actually saving by buying it on sale but i had a similar experience when i was browsing thorugh my orders.
Preach it,sister!

moonshineshadow: That might be true ;-) But I still don't want to know, it is enough to look at my spreadsheet and see my total number of games and how many are not played / unfished. Thinking about the price ... Nah, I really don't want to think about it :D
avatar
CarrionCrow: -laughs- I got to see that too. Did a list of all items by date acquired along with all items people have been generous enough to gift to me. Put it all together and it makes for one damned big backlog.
No wonder it took you 6h to do it. I remember I spent a Saturday to put everything in a spreadsheet (I also included genre, platform, status etc).

ElTerprise: Actually didn't know that. Which day is represented by which colour (i see you write it with 'ou' :D)?
avatar
AgentBirdnest: For me...
Monday = Red
Tuesday = Blue
Wednesday = Yellow
Thursday = Green
Friday = Brown
Saturday = Gray
Sunday = Light Brown
Nobody ever agrees with me. I burn those people's houses to the ground >:-)
(Of course I do! That's how Pink Floyd spells it :-D)
I love this idea... I know someone who "translates" every sound in music... They say he has an "absolutely pitch" (?)
But I already heard about this "colour" kind of synesthesia (the most crurent fotm)... Duke Ellington, Thomas Yorke (Radiohead) and Lady Gaga :D have it for example... I'd love to be able to feel that. Music and colour, all together...

Very true. You have the whole selectiveness rooted in common sense trait that I frequently lack. Wouldn't suggest that you start burning coin on games that you'll hate. It's better to remain sensible.

Enjoyable conversation is its own separate thing. Not in the habit of missing the event of a sale, even if I don't have coin to spend on one at the time.

Sales make an absolutely enormous difference. 50 and 60 percent off adds up fast, let alone 75 to 90.

LaPtiteBete: Hello :D
We, French, do it all the time ; words have gendres. Une chaise (chair ; feminine) ; un lit (bed ; masculine). So it's normal to me :) ... you must have been French in a previous life.
**Big non sexual at all hug**
avatar
ElTerprise: Interesting, both of your examples have different genders in German. Chair is masculine and bed is neuter ;)
Ho... but you are so complicated, with your "neutral" gender :D

I think if I did not have my backlog I would be more inclined to try new games, but at the moment I only put games I kind of want (as there are none left that are must haves for me). I do keep looking through the catalogue of games to add to my wishlist, but everytime I add more I talk myself out of them again. Even the ones I have on now I am tempted to just delete.

I thought napalm would be more 'Merican for you. :-)

22 months of catch-up made for a lot of typing to do. You went more in-depth than I did, I have a general idea of all the perimeters you mentioned in my head so I didn't go to the trouble of writing it all down.

Okay. Good point.

Yes it's amazing how big big the difference can get - even with rather small discounts...
