Why are there games missing from my360stats profile?

Currently through the XCDP gamercard XML feed we're able to retrieve details for the last 16 games you played.
We automatically update all the tags in our database roughly once every four days.
When someone views a gamer profile that has not been updated within the last 24 hours we tag it for an update.
You can use this to populate missing games from your profile by playing them again so they appear in the last 16 games.
If you no longer have the games you can drop us a line and we'll manually add them to your profile in our database.
Please load up all the games you still have before making a request, (especially any missing Arcade titles,) as it's a lot quicker for you to do that, than it is for us to manully input the data.
You do not need to list the games as we'll just work through your xbox.com profile from the bottom upwards, just a simple "please update my missing games" will suffice.

We do not capture details for games that have zero gamerscore. (e.g. Play Online Viewer, Quake2)
We don't record Live Arcade (Marketplace) games if you've scored zero, as you may have only played the demo.

The Incomplete Profiles page allows you to check a Gamertag and has a graphical example of the Last 16 game data.

Why is my Gamerscore on my360stats less than what I've earnt?

Your my360stats profile is currently updated automatically rougly every four days. If your profile hasn't been updated in the last 24 hours and someone (including you) views your Gamerscore or Achievements profile page it is marked for an update.

If your profile has been recently updated and your Gamerscore is still missing points, please see the FAQ item above as we may have been unable to capture details for all the games you've played.

What happens if I change my Gamertag?

We're not (currently) able to automatically detect that your Gamertag has changed.
You can add your new gamertag to our database, but don't forget as it says above, we can only automatically grab the details for the most recent 16 games you've played.

A few people have contacted us asking if we can move their achievements from an old Gamertag to a new one.
We don't have access to your Gamertag data in that sort of way at all, but as far as we know it's not something that even Xbox Support can do for you. If you want to keep your achievements then you need to "change" your Gamertag, not create a new one.

How can I contact you about x,y and z ?

If you have any queries, comments etc please send us a message via Xbox Live.
We'll obviously do our best to come back to you as soon as possible.

What is a Gamer Score Whore ?

• Gamer - One who plays a game, especially a role-playing or computer game.
• Score - The number of points attributed to a competitor or team.
• Whore - A person considered as having compromised principles for personal gain.

If you have any of the following symptoms you might just be a 'Gamerscore Whore':

• When a new game is released is your first thought about what and how easy the achievements are?
• Have you purchased a second 360 console from another region to play games not available in your region?
• Do you consider if a particular achievement is worth the time / effort for the minimal gamerscore it offers?
• You're really excited about our 'Averages' (easiest games for gamerscore) reports.
• Do you have more than one of these (excellent) sites bookmarked;
  achieve360points.com, xbox360achievements.org, GameSpot's 6000 points article and of course not forgettting www.GamerScoreWhore.com (our new project)

Please note, being a GSW is nothing to be ashamed of. Xbox 360 is certainly addictive, but it's good clean fun.

What is an Achievement Whore?

Unlike a GSW, an AW is more obsessed with completing the games they do own than their total gamerscore.
An AW won't stop at 26 achievements in Kameo, just because the co-op ones don't have any gamerscore.
They get frustrated by titles with glitched achievements like Smash TV and Texas Hold'em.
An AW will think outside the (x)box for simpler ways to unlock tricky achievements.
They'll consider boosting / glitching to unlock those almost impossible top of the leaderboard achievements.
They won't settle for less than 100% and would love to appear on our First 2 Finish leaderboard.
