It's proably possible, but it likely would harm the quality of your play.

a few people I'm playing have 1000 -3000 games at once, 3 day minimum,

they don't really answer me when they talk cause there's no time to i guess,

I don't think it's a good idea. I can't even see how they manage to play thousands of games at once, there can't be enough time
