Allow me to introduce myself: I am one of 1,271 chess.com members currently playing a Canadian called EpicPwnage on Online Chess. In other words, about 1% of all games underway on this site currently feature my friend EpicPwnage. Feeling left out and want to be part of the fun? Just set up an Online Chess seek and there's a good chance you'll get to play EpicPwnage too! In fact, he's almost impossible to avoid.

Any ideas what's going on?

Um... what's your point?  There are several players who like to have hundreds or thousands of games going at once; it's not a unique case.  As long as they're not timing out, it makes no difference, really.

You can block players from accepting your seek.

 My point is that 1401 (his current tally) is rather a lot of chess games for one person to play at the same time. If that strikes other people as unremarkable, then that suits me fine.

But I fear for EpicPwnage. In order not to time out, he has to make one move every three minutes. This assumes he doesn't sleep (let alone have a job or social commitments) and is on chess.com 24/7. If we allow him, say, seven hours' sleep a day and assume he spends his entire waking life making moves on chess.com, he's making nearly one move every 120 seconds from the time he logs on at 7am to the time he goes to bed at midnight.

What's more, my game against Mr Pwnage began on 2 March and we've already made seven moves. That's seven moves in less than five days. If he's playing at this rate against his other 1400 opponents, he's making around one move every sixty seconds and is online 24/7, playing chess. And if you think he's making rubbish moves, his record on the games he's already finished is 82-1-4.

It's humanly possible, but I doubt that Mr Pwnage is "not a unique case".
