It's back again, the grandoise gentlemen's challenge of gargantuan proportion.

For the unintiated, what we have here is a lovely slice of toomfoolery, aimed at having a good old giggle, whilst clearing the backloggery of videogames we may have accrued over the years. Be it videogames we haven't even tried, or titles we started, but got buried as soon as a new release had come round

How it works:

You post right here, in this thread, expressing your interest in participating.
In your post, please include a link to all your currently unbeaten videogames. Prefered formats are http://www.backloggery.com and http://docs.google.com - Please refrain from posting the list of all your games directly into this thread, as it will bog us right down!
Once the deadline for applicants has been reached, I will go through and match you up with a partner. This may be random, or I could push my own evil agenda as reasoning behind certain pairings.
Once you've been paired up, go through your partners backloggery, and pick a game for them to complete within the Gent's Challenge Time Limit. They will go through your backloggery and pick a title for you to finish.
You'll need to play, and beat your chosen game within the allocated timeframe, or be condemned as a Rapscallious Rascal forever moar.

Rules / Details:

In your initial post, detail any platforms, or specific titles you cannot play. If you do not specify, and your partner picks something you don't like, you cannot roll mulligan and ask them to pick a new title. If you have 'Barbie's Dressup Pony Superstar' in your list, it's fair game for a'picking.

Being an asshole is actively encouraged. Feel free to pick a notoriously difficult title for your partner. It makes it even more fun!

Feel free to be specific - If you believe that the player needs to grab a certain achievement, or Trophy to experience the most the game has to offer - Feel free to state this in your choice. However, please be realistic. Unattainable requests are likely to be struck from the record!

This is in the name of fun, so while proof of completion is *required* - it's encouraged. If you can take a quick picture of the end credits rolling, you'll gain even MORE GentPoints™
Bonus GentPoints™ will be given out for exceptional Gentlemens. Hardest Game, Fastest Completion, Most Socialable Gent (Twitter, Facebook), that kinda thing.

Minimum of 10 games on your list please. If you're struggling to fill out a list, find some F2P titles you'd wanna try! No maximum of titles on your list however!

Feedback is really encouraged. It's YOUR challenge. If you don't like the sound of any of these specifics, let me know!

Finally, I'm thinking of making this a short and sweet Challenge. How does a single calendar month sound for the total playtime?

Specifics:

Closing date for Entrants: 9th April
Announcement Date of Partnerships: 10th April
Partner's Pick Deadline: 12th April
Final Deadline: 12th May

Purely an example. I'm not one to shy away from a challenge.

As for you, your list doesn't have to reflect your complete collection. Just an assortment of titles you havent finished yet.

I think that the 12th is good, it gives people enough time to create a backlog or update their old one.

Just to clarify as I was not around for previous challenges. We only complete one game? Our partner does not choose a second game after we finish the first one?

I thewhitepenny shall participate this year! I work many hours each week so this will be a true challenge for me... especially since over half of my uncompleted games are RPGs (Dohhh!!)

I'll do what I can my friends as I plan on achieving the status of Gentleman! No rascally rascals here!

My Backlog

http://backloggery.com/thewhitepenny


Please no trophy challenges or anything to specific. Like I said I work a SHIT TON of hours each week so my time for gaming is limited.




I do have a quick question though... Do we have a date for partner parings yet? I am constantly updating my RPG collection so I will be updating my backlog before the event starts.

Just done my gameslist
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AuXJrn4KS-LedG80YmdiVzUzYklPSGxPZVBvUDNiS3c

My only stipulation is please be careful with sequels. I dont mind playing the 2nd game first, just as long as it wont completely ruin the first game for me.

So I am back with a vengeance! My goal for 2012 is beating my entire backlog of games, I am dead serious. Over the last 3 months I knocked down 25+ games which is easy to do with 4-6 hours gaming each day.

In any case I am going for a double challenge! Whoever gets paired up with me can pick two games, one handheld and one console. I only have my lists offline so apologies for this. Be advised I will not play a sequel if I havent played the original, beneath is my entire backlog so this only counts for series like Suikoden and Tales of Symphonia.

The banner reminded me of one of my previous avatars that I used around here, it also reminded me of my Glottis avatar as well (sort of).

Looking like a gent is timelessly fashionable, I guess that's the appeal. :P

I'm very tempted, but it's headed towards the end of the semester for me, and it's getting somewhat busy, so I think I'll sit this out.

That was my problem at first, but May 12 is a little after my finals, which is why I'm joining in. I could probably romp through it in those last few days.

I missed out on the last couple Gentlemen's Challenges due to my time restraints. I'm still rather limited but I would love to join in this time. My backloggery has not been updated in quite some time. Is it alright if a post a list of 10-15 games to pick from? I do not have the time commitment for a some titles :/

Ok, it's done! I left out my NES, Atari, Xbox 1 and DS collections because the games that I haven't beat are either arcade game ports or crap shovel ware. Enjoy picking my poison, whoever!
