The Pile of Shame Warpact

[Cowutopia]

I'm gonna have to get into this pile of shame thing. But I'm not counting old games I've finished before but am playing again and am in the middle of.

Something I learned - Opaque is much more belligerent in real-time.

Hey if we can add stuff to our fame list that wasn't on our shame list then I get +4 for SO3, Katamari Damacy, Paper Mario 2 and Pikmin 2.

The stuff I added was all on my shame list, I just forgot to bump the thread.

The rules say that the pile of shame is for your old games you haven't beaten, and new games you buy don't count. So I'm wondering if they can't be added to the pile of shame, can they still be added to the pile offame? We need Victrix.

The only game that wasn't almost a month old was Paper Mario 2.

I don't see why new games can't go into the pile of shame, I mean, it's a +1 to the pile for every new game you buy, right? And what if I buy a game new, like Burnout 3, don't touch it for weeks, and now finally getting around to beating it?

See I don't know, that's what I would assume, but Victrix kind of isn't setting it up that way.

IMPORTANT: Once your Pile of Shame list is created, DO NOT INCREASE IT BY PURCHASING NEW GAMES. Your Pile of Shame is based on what you have now, not what you buy tommorow. Last time we had a bit of trouble with some confusion over how your Pile of Shame list should be managed. If you buy new games (shame on you! ), don't add them to your list.

<shrug> Not obnoxiously so. Just wasn't what I was expecting. Then again I caught you in Katamari Craze.

I think if you buy new games and let them molder for a year, they go into pile of shame. I was going to say six months, but it should probably be that every year you update your Pile of Shame.

It's not really Shameful to not have beaten Paper Mario2 in the first month of its release.

Well, when you're someone like me, and buy a few games every month, if I don't finish something like Paper Mario 2 when it first comes out it gets lost.

I got Shin Megami Tensei 3, and have barely touched it, and now with GTA coming in a few days, I probably won't for awhile.

So when it's been collecting dust for a year, then you can go, "Oh shit, I started that game but it got lost. I have been blinded by glittering new games. I have lost my way. I am ashamed."

That's when you +1 the shame list. We should really have Shame List Update Day. Like I know in a year I will be adding Front Mission 4 to that list.

Does selling a game give you -1 shame?

Why do you think my pile of shame is at 60, and it would be alot more if I looked harder through my games

If it was on the list than yes. I had like 40 something in my pile before the great EB trade in deal a month back.
