Had been meaning to sign up for some time. Thanks for sharing this, though I didn't know registrations were closed. Reminds me of a private torrent tracker with the closed registration/invite only thing access.

I joined up for the hell of it (if there's any hell to be had). I don't know if I'll ever bother using it though, are there any neat features other than using it as a way to keep tabs on your collection? Does it have a lot of Japanese games in it's database?

There's no database. You literally manually make up your entire list, so you could put in anything you want.

It's alright, I don't love the site and get pretty lazy from time to time about updating it. I'd rather not be obsessed about playing/completing games and keeping a list anyways.

Well you get a pm when someone adds you. As far as a list... I don't know yet.

Man, been waiting for it to reopen for months. Server is lagging like mad right now, but I was able to get my lists going, though I should be working....

Yeah, but private trackers tend to be more about getting people who contribute to the sharing, whereas this was simple server load.

There's no database. You literally manually make up your entire list, so you could put in anything you want.

So, what's the point? Who has the time to enter all that info? Couldn't you just do it on some sheets of paper if you really wanted a list? I don't get it.

It took me an evening to do when I first did it, and it's nice to have some means of showing folks my collection, what I'm playing, and how much of my collection I've beaten (bragging rights I suppose) in one instance.

If it's not for you, it's not for you, but no reason to say it's pointless. I like having it, because I like seeing my progress with my collection, and I like seeing what others are playing too.
