Those that didn't see on BL or here the backlag challenge started today. Happy to see 24 of us joined. Anyone can still join at anytime if you feel you can get 10 beats by March

I would love to join, but I don't have a BL since registration has been closed for a while. :/

Thanks for organizing this Vay. Tis a welcome kick up the a55.

I put my new banner on Backloggery last night. I started it yesterday morning and finished it in the afternoon (I made it on MS Paint). I also altered the colors a bit in my page.

lol thanks mach. Love your choice of words there too. And very creative Star. lol you do some good stuff in Paint man i have to admit.

Oops, wasn't quite clear there. I meant "I would love to join the backlag challenge." Meh, I should think things more through when posting past midnight.

It's coming!

The Remake is 96% done! Only a few weeks or so and it'll be finished and I can make an account!

I also did a theme a week or so ago. I'd been meaning to do something for ages.

Also, PS3 and 360 owners, if you like your Backloggery status as it is, don't buy the SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis Collection! It adds 50 unfinished games! SEEEEEGAAAA. Seriously though, it's great. Buy it and spend the next few years trying to beat all the games so your Backloggery can be back in balance.

Backlag challenge hey? OK well I'll be in on that. Just finished one game earlier.

You could always just count it as its own game instead of inputting 50 games.

That true, but no-one is ever going to beat all those games. I just have them as individual games so that when queried I can say "Why yes sir, I do have Comix Zone in my backloggery".

What's that, a backloggery challenge? I'll join in. 10 games should be nothing if I actually try. Is there going to be a thread or a site to keep track of it all or is it just for our own good?

I made a new theme on my backloggery to celebrate me coming back to the backlog! Link in my sig.

A 2 I am keeping track in my note on BL. Just message me when you beat a game. I will also add your name to the list.

I should really change my BL theme, but I'm not sure what to change it to. If someone finds an animation of a marching Mini Mario, please tell me

Try editting that using Gimp or Tinypic, Crop then into 3 identically sized Squares, and then turn them into a Gif using a Gif Maker such as Gickr. It'll look stiff, but it's better than nothing. I also suggest looking for a better picture where you'd get a better animation if you can before you go through all that work. That was just the best I could find.

You could also take this if you don't mind the lack of animation.

I'll use the still image, thanks!

I beat 5 of the games in Retro Game Challenge over the past two days, but I don't think it's fair to count them, since they're kinda short (And I used the continue code heaps).

Did the site just crash?

It does that periodically. The site has alot of users and the servers can't cover them all. It's back up right now.

That's also why registration is temporarily impossible.

I think if they deleted some of the inactive accounts, it would take away a lot of strain on the servers...
