Hey nelly! <3.
I don't care about dealing with the backlog (haven't applied before because of this) but I really like the website design, it looks AWESOME! I want to try it if possible, maybe I can use it for a personal blog! :P. Don't expect me to do that because I suck at writing.

Sure, added :)
Should I add an internal note that you don't want to be invited to the Steam group? (It's mainly just used for gibs)
Btw, if you don't want your posts to appear in the activity feed, make sure to uncheck "show this post in the group activity feed" before you post something, that way it's only visible when someone goes to your profile.
Also, feel free to spam mandrill with praise for the website, since I don't know how often he checks this thread, and I had no part in the making of the site, so all of that is lost here ;)

I would love to join! I need some motivation to wade through my games. I keep playing the same old three. 😹😹😹

Hello, your website looks like a really interesting and neat tool. I'm not sure if I would be very active in discussions and as a blogger or aspire to become a member of the Steam Group, but I would certainly love to use BLAEO for organizing my own backlog.

For some reason, I can't update my game lists anymore.

It's a pity Steam doesn't provide any tools to organize one's library apart from the categories, which don't even work when using grid view (which I prefer).
I think the website Mandrill (it was him, wasn't it?) so kindly developed might be a great help in organizing myself, so if you could please give me access to it I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

Thanks! One more question: I was hoping for means to organize my library in a way so I could order the games in priority categories, somehting along the lines of "MUST play", "will play soon", "will play", "not so interesting", and maybe even "delete from library", but I can only find categories evolving around the current played status of a game. Am I overlooking somehting?
Nevermind, I guess I just found out I can make my own lists...

Interested in joining I've started an attack on my backlog. :)

Hello, I'm not sure if this is the right place to post a question but I just wanna ask, why are all my games have 0% achievements? Is there any way to sync these achievements progress? thanks!
Comment has been collapsed.
It should sync automatically but as you have no way to force it you just have to wait. Sometimes it can take some minutes but I also had cases where it took some hours. So yea, just wait and it will resolve.
Maybe staying on the site will speed up the process? Don't know.

I'd love to join in - sounds like my kinda crazy......seriously.
Comment has been collapsed.
I've been very slow with invites in general, sorry. I'll look into it when I do the next round of invites - while I'm not super happy that you keep asking about this, I do appreciate that you're keeping it to here and not messaging us or writing on our walls ;)

I don't mean to sound rude or impatient, it's just that there was a possibility that you might've forgotten, since I can understand you have plenty of people to deal with on a daily basis. As long as my case is being processed, do take as long as you feel is reasonable. Your group, your rules :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hello, I would like to join if possible. I am already using something else to track my unplayed games, but this seems like it would work way better for me :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I tried to add you a bunch of times, but for some reason it's not working :( I'll talk to the site admin tonight about it, or maybe if someone else applies until then I can check whether it's the site or just you for some reason. Sorry for the wait :(

After some ground-breaking new website features implemented by mandrill, BLAEO is accepting member applications again! :D
But instead of being invited to the Steam group directly, you will be given access to our website after applying in this thread. Just set up your profile there and be active if you want to, and we'll eventually invite you to the Steam group. Right now the Steam group is mainly used for syncs with SG and group giveaways on here (and reminder announcements for various things), so you're not missing much if you don't get invited right away ;) And just to clarify, the website is basically the group, the Steam group is pretty much just a bonus ;)
Thanks to this new feature, we can now proudly announce that there are no requirements to join (not that we really had any before), simply let us know you're interested here :)
Once you're in the Steam group though, you're only allowed to enter group giveaways if you've been active (we won't post our requirements/definition of "active" so people can't abuse that information).
So, in conclusion, post here to gain full access to the BLAEO website and then add mandrill to your whitelist :P
Please do not add group admins/mods or post to their Steam profiles to get an invite, you'll get added to the site much faster if you just reply in this thread
PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST TO JOIN THE GROUP WITHOUT HAVING BEEN ADDED TO THE WEBSITE! Request to be added to the website in this thread first!
If you don't know where to start on the site, read this guide, and/or this guide. Extra info on image formatting.
If you don't want to miss any announcements, subscribe to these group threads (works for everyone):

FAQ (under construction)
I just joined, and the site isn't showing achievements for my games. Help?
The site starts compiling everything starting with your first login, so if you just used it for the first time, just wait a few hours. Same with new achievements and game additions, just give it some time.
How do I post on the site?
Read this getting started guide, and/or this guide.
How do I get into the Steam group?
We add everyone who applies in this thread to the users of our website, meaning after you login there with your Steam account for the first time, you can use it as a regular member.
Steam changed how groups manage new members and we can no longer invite people we aren't already friends with. So after you're added to the website and have been using it for a while, request an invite to the Steam group if you want to join. We'll review your request and accept it if you have indeed been active on the site (for at least 10 days, but depending on frequency and extent of activity, might be several weeks until you get an invite).
PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST TO JOIN THE GROUP WITHOUT HAVING BEEN ADDED TO THE WEBSITE! Request to be added to the website in this thread first!
I applied in this post and didn't get invited to the Steam group.
See above.
What are the benefits of being in the Steam group?
You get to
post on the forums and* join giveaways that are shared with the group here on SG! But remember that we're not a giveaway group and there aren't many running giveaways at any given time, so you're really not missing much if you're not in the Steam group.*the forums are open to everyone now, no need to join the Steam group
Why did I get kicked from the Steam group?
There's really only one rule: Don't join group exclusive giveaways (i.e. not shared with any other groups or the whitelist) if you haven't been active on the site for a while. A "while" can be anything between 14 days and over a month, depending on your usual activity (e.g. members with huge monthly posts won't get kicked for joining a group exclusive GA 4 weeks after their last post, but someone with who usually posts short updates like "I finished this game, it was fine" every few days and hasn't posted in over 2 weeks might get the boot - this is examined on a case by case basis, any kinds of posts are fine, just be aware of this when you want to enter a group exclusive giveaway AND stay in the Steam group).
I got kicked out of the Steam group, can I still use the website?
Yes! You can use it just like before, nothing changes for you in that regard.
I left the Steam group. Does that affect site usage in any way?
No, but please let us know about it, especially if you don't want to get invited back into the Steam group, so we can make a note of it and don't spam you with invites when you're active on the site.
