My first reaction, perhaps nice for the readers of this forum :
Laszlo Szabo, Hungarian Grandmaster, born in 1917, wrote a book in 1981 with the title : " 100.000 moves in 50 years ", which means approx. 50 to 60 games per year, and : OTB, over the board !
I myself play chess since schooltime, so at least 50.000 to 60.000 moves OTB in clubs and tournaments.
In 5 minutes games here on chess.com I made far more moves in say 20.000 games, I will check how many exact.
There have been other forums about the number of games played here, I don't know the titles , so cannot find them.
a player on a rival site made his 1M move. What's the current record here? Correspondence not rapid or blitz-though correspondence can be "blitzed" out which likely happened in this case.
