New Feature: GOTY Lists (Patreon)

Keep the fun of the events going with all new GOTY Lists. GOTY lists are a new list type dedicated to showcasing your top picks for the given year, just like the GOTY and Replay events. You can find them in a new dedicated tab under the 'Lists' section of any profile.

These lists will automatically get created after an event completes and will be directly editable from there. Plus if you've ever missed a GOTY or Replay event, you can now go back and create lists for past events to get your favorites in. These lists will be treated a little differently than normal lists as they won't be browsable outside of visiting a profile nor seen in the activities section.

Opening one will reveal your top picks along with some details about the games. You can choose from any of the six original categories that you've seen in the events: gameplay, soundtrack, art direction, narrative, multiplayer, and of course game of the year.

You can edit your list with the same range of settings you've come to recognize: description, notes, reordering, and privacy. The only limitation is that you can only create lists for events that have already concluded.

Editing your GOTY list will not change your submitted results for any event or change what the final tally was. Those are still locked in and can be view if you go to the goty section of your profile (ex: https://backloggd.com/u/MrProg/goty/)

Try GOTY lists out yourselves as they are now live on the site! I wanted to get this one out quickly before I move onto the next major update, but I can see potential ideas for expanding them further maybe with more social features or customizations. Let me know what you think!MrProg
