I saw a post around and i came up with an idea.
I am, as many others, a big buyer, but very bad player. I ended up with a huge "backlog" that i like to call "collection". I basically played around 5-10% of games that i own and i completed even less.
The objectives of Gentleman's Backlog Club:
- One member gets to assign another member a game from his backlog
- The member with assigned game it's doomed to complete that specific game
Rules:
- The person that wish to join Backlog Club needs to state his intention in this topic and post a list of games that he own;
- Another member of the Club will assign a game by replying to joining post;
- The member with assigned post needs to accept the challenge by stating that in a post;
- When he finish the game, it is required for him to write a short impression about the game and to state his intention of continuing the participation;
- Members gets to assign one game at a time and have only one active game assigned to itself;
- In order to join and be part of the club, members need not to have negative reputation.
General rules:
- Online games that do not necessary have an ending are excluded;
- Single Player games that do not have an ending are excluded as well;
- Anyone can decline an assigned game from any reason (political, religious, offensive, or they would simply do not like playing that specific game);
- If the game do not run well on a person system, or if the game is way too bugged, he can state and ask for another challenge.
I'll start. Those are my games:
Steam - http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198066577948/games/?tab=all&sort=name (ignore timers here unless they are like over 5-6 hours. I opened some games in order to get the cards)
On GOG i still need to type them or organize them somehow, as i didn't find a way to export my library. Tried with GOGMix, but there's a limit on number of games, unfortunately.
I must say that my PC it's not really up to date, i can't smoothly run some of the new games. I can run Skyrim ok, but kinda low frame-rate, just to have an idea.
So, next member that wants to participate will say so, quote my list and assign me a game. Next one will assign the previous user, and so on and so on.
I think it would be something fun. Maybe we get to play games that we ignored and we find something nice about them. I know i had these kind of moments with some.
