I heard one guy had so many he just snapped and up and dumped all his duplicates in a hole in the desert somewhere.

I reckon I have around 500-600 or so physical games, despite my backloggery claiming nearly 900. I have a good number of digital games, and I'm sure some of that 900 is made up of compilations too.

People count their games?

I guide people into my game room, say "look at all of this awesome shit", and then start opening closets and say "wait... there's more".

I'm still trying to figure out how to multiple quote like that!? :(

Despite having had access to far higher resolutions I can't really seem to find a good reason to upgrade my own personal TV. It's a 4 year old Samsung LED LCD and it still has damn good image quality and far better speakers than average.

Meanwhile my grandpa just bought a 4k TV and swears he can see the difference (his eyesight is shit by the way). :roll:

You know when you click "add reply," below the box that you write your post in, you can scroll through X amount of recent replies in reverse order? For each one of those posts, there's a quote button. If you click the quote button, it'll quote that post in your reply box. And here's a pro tip: If you highlight text in a post and click quote, it'll quote ONLY the text that you highlighted.

At least, that's the easier way to do it. You can also do it manually. Click add reply and have that in one tab. Then, in another tab, open the thread. Highlight the text that you wanna quote, then copy and paste it into your reply box. Then use the quote tags. In the quote open brackets, type ="UserName" (whatever is in the quotes will be in the quote bar).

Type it exactly like this:

Code: Select all

[quote="Ziggy"]Your text here.[/quote]
That's how you do stuff like this...

Fancy. I always just manually typed in the quote tags and copy and pasted the text from the previews posts view.

Yeah, I find that sometimes it's easier to do it manually if there's a ton of stuff you wanna quote.
