How to find my old games
I've played in a few games here that have petered out. Occasionally, I want to look back at the characters, or I remember a turn of phrase I want to use again. Every time when I look for my old games, I can't find them.

Is there a way to search games you have removed from the sticky list or games you've submitted a RTJ?

Preferences > Manage the games you monitor > Are you missing any games?

It won’t show the deleted games obviously, but everything else will be there.

You can also search for games by GM, so if you entered your own name in that field, anything that's still present would show up.

How to find my old games

When I search my old deleted games: alphabetical, a list comes up.

But it won't go past the first page. So I get all the ones with titles A through I.

How do I get to J through Z?

I'm only allowed to have 20 undeleted, I think.

Does anyone have an actual solution?

I don't see any old games for you I went to the search and typed you in as a gm and the only thing that comes up for me is your current active game.

I am not Galen.

But if I was Galen, this wouldn't solve Galen's problem.

I think the problem is that you are confusing me for Galen and combining our problems.

Galen wants to find old games he PLAYED in.

I want to find old games i MADE.

How to find my old games
In reply to Galen (msg # 1):

It may be worth noting that Moderators occasionally remove inactive games (and those flagged for deletion) from the site, as part of semi-regular maintenance.  Once that happens, those games no longer exist, and there is no record of them.

Regarding the Browse/Search function: there currently seems to be a bug with it when searching for inactive and deleted games.  I'll flag it for jase's attention, and he'll fix it when he has time.

Please and thank you. If nothing changes about it after a couple of months, I guess I'll check back here

If nothing changes after a couple of months, that just means that jase hasn't had a chance to do anything with it.

Is Jase the only one doing tech support still? I'd have thought the site was big enough to have more than one tech guy now. :/

Guess jase hasn't had a chance to do anything with it. So this is me commenting again.

Guess not.
