How do you organise your games?
I tried so many ways to organize but most of then didn't work out.
Categories I had though all the phases: completed (not100% / no ach), 100%, trash, HOGs (mostly because they could be done relatively fast) and some promoted category for games I want/should/ am playing.
Tried depressurizer, but to be honest it's close to useless for me, lorenzostanco.com does a way better job at selecting a game based on positive/negative tag searches if I want to find a game based on criterias, and I know my games at least to the level of the main genre-categories of depressurizer add nothing to it.
I had numerous extra categories over the past 1-2 year - actual games, soon to be played, short games to play but I just kept throwing games into it but still mostly forgeting about them. So I tried a newish way recently: uninstalled ~100 out of 170 games, and started sorting them into played now/close future (all installed), very good games I shouldn't forget about (not installed) and I kept the extra mostly because savegames and such. For me too many installed games just make the choice harder, so I try to reduce their numbers, and it seems to work nicely - otherwise I'm like a toddler in a candy store - I want dis! and dis! and dis! *installs 15 games then play 1 of them in the next 3 months*

I really wish people could add estimated playtime to steam game son the store just like tags.
I'd love to organise by playtime.
Sometimes I want to play a really short game, sometimes I want to immerse myself in a sprawling, lengthy narrative or rpg game.
I realise it would be difficult as it's completely subjective. And people would probably start buying based on it, so games might artificially lengthen, but I just wish there was some way to organise by it :P

You could try arranging them via Publisher like Activision games, Blizzard games,THQ games, Rockstar games, EA games and so on.

Well, there's the default "Games" where my installed giveaway games go, "Games+" for single-player games that I like (for some reasons, I don't want to use favorite), "Completed" for those giveaway games where I got all achievement/cards, "Completed+" which is like completed tag but those that belong from Games+, "Alpha/Beta" for those alpha/beta, "DLC/Etc." for stuffs like the Starbound Unstable, PPU puzzle packs, etc., and "Multiplayer/Online".

So I had the brilliantnot idea to reorganise my Steam Library. Had used some script or something previously that auto organised it by genre(as they appear in the Steam Store) but that actually ended up making it worse since now the same game appeared in multiple categories at once and well, the steam tags aren't the most reliable either. So, clutter and inaccuracy.
Thus I just wiped everything and I'm now in the middlenot even close, I'm still at C of organising everything by how interested I am in them with a few extra categories such as SG wins, Multiplayer only games, Party games and such.
/spammy rant
So I grew kinda curious how the rest of SteamGifters approach this. Do you organise your Library and if so in what way did it seem to work best for you?
