Spent a chunk of time today tidying my RPG collection, largely sorting through uncategorized PDFs. Still have some old bundles to process, but made a really big dent in it.
There are enough different RPGs in this library as to be somewhat overwhelming. The idea that there are literally thousands of RPGs in there, and they're only a fraction of what out there is daunting. It's something I know intellectually, but actually digging through the pile makes it almost overwhelming concrete.
Also, this is a regular reminder to put the name of your game SOMEWHERE on any material you put out. I have a LOT of files named "CharacterSheet.pdf”, and I do not have the power to match them to their respective games by instinct. Just put it in a footer or something.
@rdonoghue I love the way #Paizo has a number system for every product they make, and you can tell what system the product is from, what category of product, what series it's from, just by the number. Makes their pdfs so much easier to organize, and also makes it possible to find gaps in the collection.
(I do wish it was easier to find the numbers on their website, or in the inside cover of the books. Normally after I download a bundle I've bought, finding the numbers is a game I have to spend a half hour or more playing.)
