You forget that for every event?!? I think you need to put down the video games and go see a doctor. 😰

I think AWA would have to constantly (24/7) monitor the Steam accounts for all it's members to keep track what they have installed.

AFAICT, AWA is already monitoring our Steam accounts anyway for the Steam Quests. (And for the record, I'm usually rushing to set it running during work or sleep... 🙄)

In case you didn't know: the button for joining doesn't even work until your Steam account has the game (it goes to the store page for the game, instead). You have to refresh manually for it to show that you're not in the event.

For Steam Quests, simply installing a game isn't enough for AWA to monitor my play time. I have to 1) install the game, 2) run it a little, 3) add it in my AWA account with their Sync/Check button, 4) and finally click the Start button.
