7 million games
50 moves per game average = 350 million moves
5 minutes average thought time per move = 1750 million minutes

1750 million minutes
= 29 million hours
= 1.2 million days
= 3329.5 years wasted.

Sorry Trev. It was a guess. If you would be so kind as to work out the mean average moves of all 7 million games, I would be eternally grateful. Honest.

It would be interesting to know how much time is wasted on posting in the forums. 🙄

Winner gets a Tannenzäpfle (local beer) or a bottle of local apple juice. The nearest hit wins.

Nice choice. I'll wager $0.25CDN. as the odds seem to have been forgotten and I don't have the time to wait.
