50,000!

I've been collecting my online games (turn-based and blitz, but not bullet) into a single database for more than a decade. These games go back to 1999, although I started playing online in 1998. A few games were lost due to inopportune crashes of Windows 98 (remember those days?), but I have the vast majority of my online games. Unlike sites where games are automatically saved to one database which I easily export to the main one, games played here must be downloaded 50 at a time. I'm emailing myself games played here going back to January.

This database now contains over 50,000 games!

woah that was awesome... so you have been playing for at least 13 years with 50,000 games... i want to play with you..

Wow, that comes to around 11 games or so for each and every day.

That is prety hardcore, I got a little over 4,000 games online you got me beat

I'm pretty sure you don't even know him.

Crap, I tell my wife that I limit myself to five games per day. I suspect that she knows the truth.

Congrats Ziryab!

More than 66,000 games now. Still excluding bullet.

How many games does chess.com store in the archive? All of them?? or just a few (I never checked). If they store all of them there will be loads of players with 10,000s of games. But that's still pretty awesome to store all those games.

Also not true, he's actually achieved a respectable rating of 2242.

Congrats, man!👏

@Colby-Covington I think Archaic71 was referring to a player who is no longer with us as the “newb”.
