|Just had a thought, are we meant to add games as we play them or before then tick them off as we work our way through them?

The idea is to add games as you play them, that way people can see the gradual progress over the year rather than all the cells being full at the start!

I'll remove all the cells I've filled then, I haven't played any of them yet.

Don't know what I was thinking.

Well, now I feel bad, you've dropped from 11 games to 0! What's going to be your first game do you think?

I think it'll be Monster Crown, hopefully I can motivate myself to play something other than Stardew Valley and Fights in Tight Spaces.

What if you put planned games in italics, with the rule being that they won't count at thr end of the year?

Not much excitement in everyone just added 27 games right at the start, the fun is seeing things slowly fill in throughout the year.

Though I say this as someone who hasn't even joined in (yet, maybe when the Steam Deck arrives)

Having finished Echoes of the Eye, the DLC for Outer Wilds, I've decided it definitely counts as a separate entry to help me get those achievements :datass:

I agree, this shouldn’t be for planned games.

I did think that it might be useful to agree a way of marking which games we’ve gone on to complete. Bold text, maybe?

Updated mine with the 3 castlevania games I finished yesterday which I'd never played before. :D

Bold text for completed games is a good idea.

It raises a question about completion though - does that mean seeing the end credits, basically?

Great workshopping everyone. Ok, how do we feel about this:

- Completed games are bolded (and yes, this means seeing the end credits)
- If you find it personally helpful to add 'planned games', you could add these as comments to your cells (but this could get messy). Will leave it to your judgement!

Monster Crown it is! Now you've put your first letter legitimately down, this means you have completed your first Alphabechievement! Scroll down the sheet to complete 'Tick off any 1 letter'

Amazing work! You have enriched the legacy of your Castlevania gaming experiences. Perhaps even more importantly, did you know this also means you can tick off the HARDCORE Alphabechievement 'Triple Up on any one letter'?

Just bolded my completed games and I'm now frustrated that games like Wordle and Trivial Pursuit will never be in bold.

I'm not looking great on diversity of letters but my achievements are healthy at least.
