    I think it's O.K. if you want to play more than 300 games at the same time, but we are forgetting something: the Quality of the games.

    Those persons playing a lot of games, they also have a high amount of lost games.
    I could give an approximation: more than 25%, probably near 30%.

    The person that chooses to play a huge amount of games is ...[text shortened]... age
    of the lack of time or the poor analysis of the adversary.

    I hope you have a good day.
    I am playing someone with 1,100+ games. If I were playing just to get points, that would work against me. When I took his open invite, he had 162 games. He has lost 31 by timeout so far and his rating has dropped 200 points. So, I'm not taking advantage of poor analysis. In fact, just the opposite.

    Fortunately, I'm not here for rating points. I'm just having fun playing the game I enjoy.

    If he wants to play a million games, that's his choice.

    And it would follow that these people would not win many tourneys.
    Are you sure of your statistics ? I have my doubts. 🙄
