Planning to release my userscript that sorts your Steam wishlist automagically [Interest Thread]

I'd like to see how it works :)

Sure, why not?

The order is not super important to me, but when I do arrange it, it's probably something I need.

Neat idea. Does it show the end result before it saves the new order?

I'm seriously interested in such a script. Wishlist sorting on Steam right now is as bad as it can be. It wasn't made for people with >10 wanted games in mind, and you either put a lot of effort into it or you just give up. And that's just what I did after I got to 100+ entries. I do keep the top 50 or so roughly organised, and push stuff from bottom to top and then reorganise it every few weeks, but it's still such a chore... And if you don't maintain the list properly it'll just keep growing, whereas if you can objectively review the whole thing you can tell if something needs to be in the list or not.

So, yeah, I would greatly appreciate it!

Sounds interesting. Looking forward to the release.

You've already done the bulk of the work, you may as well tidy it up and post it . You never know what you might learn from the experience or what it might turn into unless you try. :)

weeb.

I don't understand. All you're doing is sorting it alphabetically?

bump pal.

Not entirely sure how the sorting will work, but hey the more tools available the merrier. I have a lot of stuff on my wishlist that I'm just keeping an eye on, games still in development that I may want to play eventually, etc and it would be nice to have some more order in that regard.

Ohh, I've encountered this kind of sorting before, with favorite characters of a show or something. I think that'd be useful (and interesting), although I'd have to +1 the preview suggestion as well. :D

So you finally decided to show it to everyone, nice!

Sounds interesting. Over the years, my wishlist has somehow ballooned to over 1,000 games (mostly to track whether they are on sale). Would be good to sort them into some sort of sensible order, but I've no idea how. Perhaps this will help?

I've thought about something like this too although I don't trust myself to not input circular choices :X and it'd still take a really long time if all were A or B and there are about 200 games on my wishlist. Would still be interested in doing it to sort it all out after messing it up for so long.

You forgot the option "My wishlist is just fine", but thanks for the train!

Sounds pretty cool!

I'd definitely try it

This would be something I really need! I tried changing it by hand but then I come across another game I like more than the other and then the order is again messed up because I cannot keep track >.<

Sounds really interesting I would try it out!
