Also it's Level 1, because if you can't be bothered to give away ONE GAME, I can't be bothered with you.

Thanks! You were the first person on twitter to follow, thus you will always be near and dear to my heart.

Just started reading your blog. Ah, collecting music. Just as bad as collecting movies, be they digital or physical copies. Even worse for me was magazines. Ended up dumping a few hundred kilos of them (about 20 years worth) to liberate space ;)
Edit: Damn, my typing is getting worse the older I get :(

I tend to be a bit of a packrat so I have hoarded a lot of physical items as well. My backlog of books is almost as bad as my game backlog, but I figured people wouldn't be as interested in a blog reviewing books I read. Maybe that'll be the next project.
Thanks for checking it out!

I literally did a backflip (not literally) when I saw the domain was open. There's also a backblog . com but it's about backs for real.

Back Blog is kinda clever word play. Good luck with the site, EtcEtcEtctaco, and thanks for the generosity!

Oh hello there, I didn't see you come in. Have a seat! We have so much to talk about - specifically my attempts to bribe you with sweet giveaways.
Bribe, you say? Yes, I do say. I also do bribe - within this post, deep within this post, is a train! A pretty good train if I do say so myself.
But first...
Like many of you, I have amassed a collection of games in my months at Steam Gifts. With the Humble Bundles, and various weekly Sales, I have seen my digital shelves grow to digital bursting. Like many of you... I suffer from a Back Log.
As such! I have decided to conquer my back log with the help of a blog.
Not just any blog though - a Back Blog.
I intend to play through every game I have, and write at least one post on every one. Some of these posts will be full of jokes, others will be full of deep introspection - others will be diaries, or lets plays, or whatever - I don't know for sure yet. It's bound to be pretentious though!
Anyways, I'd love for you Steam Gifters to give me the gift of your readership. Hence the bribes. I've laid out a list of the rules which can be found Here
I've also started the Project - my first game is Aarklash Legacy - which I've written about Here
So where do you come in? First you ride the train. Then you click on the links in the train, and if you're intrigued, you sign up so you know when those posts are hot out the oven, or presses, or whatever heat based metaphor works for you.
Specifically, for this site, I've created a Steam Group - linked in the train - if I see enough traffic, members, etc, my plan is to start giving away copies of the games I especially like from my Back Log (obviously once I've played and written about them)
I also plan on taking votes for the next game, and other aspects of the blog - crowd participation! You guys love crowd participation right?!
So that's that, thanks for taking a look - and hereeeee is the TRAIN
EDIT
Wow holy hell the turnout on this exceeded my expectations. Thanks to everyone for the luck wishing, and especially anyone who bookmarked, liked, followed, read, etc!
I'm taking the advice of HitScan and adding a page to the steam group that will update w/ every post - so if you don't use any other form of social media and you want to follow you can do so there.
I really appreciate the support from everyone - I've already prepped an update for tomorrow! So if you're following, check in then.
I'll try to go through and individually respond to people following, who had questions, etc - sorry I can't respond to everyone who said good luck, but I read em all, and I appreciate every one :)
