DrSpudnik

16 and I'm swamped.

I've played people who had 300+ going at at time. Those people amaze me.

I had up to 40 going but now I only have 2. Trying to finish up these set of  games, which brings me to 100, and see how I fared with my first 100 games and where I ended up in rating. Then I'll probably only do a dozen at a time or so. I had a lot going earlier so I could get to play a lot of higher rated players while my rating was high from an early winning streak I had when I started here (was 1804). I thought I'd get knocked back down in the ratings from it, but surprisingly I've held my rating pretty much around that! So that shocked and delighted me.

I have 5, one of which is essentially over, so it doesn't really count...

Check out jcasey, he has around 200!

23 - The most I've had on this site at one time.  I don't think I will be starting any new games for awhile.

I have 70+ now which is too much for me. 40 or so is more comfortable.  I know a strong player here with 400+ though, he's a machine!

Poor poor poor bird!

I usually run about 50 at a time. I think I am going to drop down to about twenty soon because my rating has been stagnant for the past year. Hoping more time spent on moves will increase my rating...

right now I have 9 games and it is more than enough. my advice keep the  number low. right now you may be highly motivated to have many games running. but days where the motiation is low it feels like hard work to move many games and can make you chess tired.

@bobbyDK: very sensible advice...but i wanna play more!!!  :0)

More crab? You have 46... How do you do that?

It's not that difficult really, my games are spread over one, two or three day games, so when I'm not up for it I just play the bare minimum which may invovle on 8 or 9 moves. Not too onerous.
