Number of concurrent Daily games

I saw recently that one of my Daily games opponents had over 200 Daily games in progress.

Is that wise actually? Isn't it like the Daily equivalent of an exclusive diet of 1-min bullet games?

How can you really be expected to give each one of those games your full thought and attention? There isn't the time in the day? How much could you also learn about chess and improve from playing said games?

I'm a total patzer of course, but so far I've found anything over about 10 or so Daily games and things start to become a bit unwieldy.

What's the max number of concurrent Daily games you guys have seen?

I have seen over 1500. For me 50-60 is ideal, I got up to around 120 a while ago and it became a chore.

It depends how you play I guess. Personally I like 24hr games but it is very rare that I will spend more than 5-10 minutes looking at a position before moving. If I can't decide I will go to other games and come back to it but I don't like closing my session without making all my moves. A bit OCD.
