Why 50 games!? I had about 11 games or so and was happy. I joined a league game with Chess Lords! and now have over 30! I can't keep up with more than that... and have never had more than about 35 games or so. Never 40... Never 50!

50 is small for me. Since I got my star the majority of the time I have had 80 or more games. I have peaked on 2 separate occasions at ~250 & ~360 games.

I was the first ever MAP of the Month, with a modest 8,400 moves. 1000 - 2000 moves a month used to be average I doubt I have gone below that even 5 times since I got my star.

Hence dieting so that I move at most 600 moves per month is extreme for me.
