Yeah, I know the saying. And it's true.

Ten, but only due to enormous self-control. Last time it got up to 82, then I got a life and lost them all on timeouts. I'm trying not to do either half of that again, I want to keep it to where I can manage the games without making it take hours a day, even if that is what I like to spend playing chess some days.

Also trying to redirect a bit of my chess energy to OTB and study. And maybe to non-chess pursuits as well.😕

I used to have only 20, then as another person pointed out some of the players on this site juggle several hundred. I'm up in the 60s now trying a heavier load, so far it works, but have a safety net that half my games are 7/7 which gives me more time towards the end of the week as things pick up.

Can you imagine someone playing 767 games at once?
That's crazy. When I play more than 50 I just end up in a slump again - like now 🙁
I don't know how these high rated high volume guys do it.

I did name you, guy, in the first post.
And might I add, you're pretty awesome to play that many games and maintain a class A rating. 🙂

32.

7 tourney games
2 against friends
23 clan games.

I'm hoping to keep them clan and friends in the future.

The league just started - so now I have 32
That's the most I've had on the go at once so far.

I expect to pay for it ...

Are you sure he didn't just say, "You're a loser"?
