Would you prefer a medal, a straitjacket, or simply for us to arrange amputation of your fingers?)
100 K

When do you expect to reach this milestone? Congratulations are in order.
I gt off work sometime between 8:00 and 8:45 tonight. It is a forty minute drive home. So, I expect that I'll manage six games with a glass or two of Scotch by 10:30 tonight.
As long as I keep the sound turned off while playing, my wife will not amputate my member.

Awse. so in about 7 hours from now : D
That's quite something, 10 k games. Wow. It's nice you haven't said wins only, that's what I would expect most people to do.

It's nice you haven't said wins only.
My wins on chess.com are running slightly less than my losses over the past two years. Before that, I had more wins than losses. My overall score in my database is probably about 56%.

Nice, I think that is the most respectable situation to lose slightly more than you win. There is nothing more disappointing than someone who goes on about their wins but then you see they try and play people well below their own rating.

Whoooooooooooop!!! Congrats Professori!))
Great job, and great collection of data you must have a great attitude to losing which would help you win.

I hate losing and have a terrible attitude. That’s why I’ve played so many games. Losing throws me into a binge, often playing for hours when I could be doing something more productive. Online chess is an addiction.

@Ziryab this is quite a milestone and displays commitment, drive and determination. May we all learn from your efforts.

Learn to avoid addiction. But if you cannot, a chess addiction is somewhat less harmful than many alternatives.

z, are you saying you have a database of 100M of your own games?
No. I have a database of 100 K of my own games.
I've played only 59,823 games on chessdotcom (nearly 20 K of which are not in my database), but I've also played on ICC, FICS, Queen Alice, Game Knot, Chess World, Chess24, Playchess, LiChess, Chess Time, ChessByPost, Instant Chess, Red Hot Pawn, Slow Chess, and a few others. My personal database contains probably 60% of all the games that I've played online.

Six more.
My personal database of games played online includes play at dozens of sites since 1999. There were games played in 1998 that have been lost, and tens of thousands of others destroyed through database corruption several times. I also attempt to keep bullet games out, unless they are 2 1.
