Popular Post eigen-space Posted May 6, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2021 (edited) Gaming By Numbers Is everyone super excited for a fourth round of Gaming By Numbers?! I know I am! Updates: May 10 - Google Sheets document has been created here. The Basics 1) You will be playing up to 10 different games for this event, with one unique instance of the numbers 0-9 as the last digit in the game's URL. 2) Badges will be filled in with colors corresponding to each number. You will have a fully-colored badge if you complete all 10 digits! 2) Here is an example list that would earn a full badge: Final Fantasy VII Remake is 0 as its URL ID is 10660: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/10660-final-fantasy-vii-remake Returnal is 1 as its URL ID is 12751: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/12751-returnal Tales of Xillia (NA) is 2 as its URL ID is 2062: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/2062-tales-of-xillia Marvel's Spider-Man is 3 as its URL ID is 8143: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/8143-marvels-spider-man Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is 4 as its URL ID is 8864: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/8864-sekiro-shadows-die-twice Kingdom Hearts III is 5 as its URL ID is 8675: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/8675-kingdom-hearts-iii Ratchet & Clank (PS4) is 6 as its URL ID is 4536: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/4536-ratchet-clank Tales of Xillia (EU) is 7 as its URL ID is 2077: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/2077-tales-of-xillia Heavy Rain (PS4) is 8 as its URL ID is 4398: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/4398-heavy-rain Heavy Rain (PS3) is 9 as its URL ID is 249: https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/249-heavy-rain Resources Save yourself some time with looking up your games' digits by looking at the Popular Games spreadsheet. This sheet contains the most popular 100 games for each system (PS5 PS4 PS3 Vita) based on PSNP's "Popular This Week" ranking (compiled June 18, 2019, June 14, 2020, and May 6 2021). Feel free to check out the 2018 Tableau Dashboard, 2019 Tableau Dashboard, and 2020 Google Sheets to see all of the data for the last three events! Note: I have done my best to provide accurate information for all the games/data listed in the linked documents, but it is each participant's individual responsibility to ensure accuracy for the games they complete, including-- but not limited to-- accuracy of the represented digit, validation that servers are still online/completion is obtainable, correct listing of completed games, etc. Rewards You will get an event badge, designed by @Spacey Dweeb, within a few weeks of the event ending so long as you complete at least 5 numbers. The event badges will be semi-unique as it will get "colored in" based on the games you complete, like a Color-By-Numbers activity! This is the colorless badge for those of you interested, with the colors being in the color panel below (top = 0-4, bottom = 5-9) Important Dates Sign-up Ends: Midnight, June 15, 2021 Event Starts: 12:00:01 AM, June 1, 2021 Event Ends: Midnight, August 31, 2021 --Timezone is MST --If you sign up after the event start date (but before the sign-up cutoff), I'll count any games completed during the event time frame even if they were completed before you signed up Rules 1) As you could probably tell from the examples, you are allowed to stack games! Different trophy lists have different IDs for different regions, different systems, or even physical versus digital releases! 2) Your game will count so long as you get 100% of the base game between the event start and end dates. If your game has a platinum, this means getting the platinum is necessary, but you do not need to complete any associated DLC. Similarly, for a game that has no platinum, you will only need to complete the base game trophies (example: Little Nightmares has several DLC packs-- only the 13 base game trophies need to be completed). 3) If you got 100% for the base game before the event started, that game cannot be used for the event even if you still have DLC to complete. However, you can use games that you have made progress in before the event started (i.e.-- you do not need to start games from 0% completion). 4) The game's URL ID has to match the number category for it to count for that category. No exceptions! Make sure you are clicking on the correct region/system/version link before playing your game! 5) You do not have to complete your games in any specific order. Game Updates You don't need to submit a list beforehand, or even at all! I will be updating everyone who has signed up for the event in a Google Sheets spreadsheet and Tableau Dashboard on a weekly-ish basis by looking at what games are completed on their profile. However, it's always fun to see what everyone intends to play, so feel free to discuss your gaming plans and progress! Results will be put into a Google Sheets document. @Jens will be assisting with updates this time around! Note: As I am updating these games based on what I see on profiles rather than what people post in the forum, whichever game I see first (usually your first completed game) will be recorded in the spreadsheet. Any requests to list a different game in the spreadsheet will be refused unless it's due to error on my part-- such as listing a game you didn't actually complete, etc; this makes my life easier as this event tend to get quite a lot of people signing up. Happy Gaming! Edited September 30, 2021 by eigen-space 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreggit Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I'll finish this year for sure with things not taking up so much time as frequently, it should be doable this year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Han_the_Dragon Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I'm glad to see you back (did you left for a while, or I just didn't saw you post?) as well as to see another of those events! I will be in and as usual, will be planning and readjusting during the event and no restrictions on earning platinums this time! But with a big time restriction on my play time... Will likely start the planning phase over the weekend to see my quick options (mainly Artifex Mundi games this time around). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never went away, but my time on this site and video games in general has been drastically reduced due to starting grad school back in August. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that I remember seeing you mention that around the time of the last Play By Numbers.. After that I don't remember seeing you posting, but was likely a combination of you being less often here, and me being here mainly for events (since I'm using them to keep me playing..), my time for "random lurking" hasn't been much either.. Anyway, really looking forward for the event, since it's always great fun for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weskerfan75 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Sign me up! Most of the games I plan on beating this summer end in different numbers so this should be great! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jens Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Not really announcing me joining this event because it wouldn't make much sense to do so. But this is me announcing that I'll get my first full badge! Quote and make fun of me if I fail. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
