Title: Request for a new feature
Post by: rayne315 on May 31, 2015, 12:59:45 pm: I am starting to get so many games that it's getting hard for me to pick a game that I would like to play, so my request is for a feature to do it for me. A simple button that searches through all my logged games and randomly picks one out.

Thank You.

I guess we have stuff like Backloggery for keeping track of games to beat, but to me it's not as aesthetically pleasing or intuitive for cataloging games as VGC. It would so sweet to combine the two!

It would definitely be nice :) in the meantime all we can do is use the "notes" feature for our personal notes and then you can export the collection info (notes included) and sort that way.

It's always a good idea to keep a back up anyway, just in case.
