It depends on the timeouts and timebanks of the game. If you play 100 games at 1 day timeout and not timebank, I bet you owuld be spending atleast 6 hours a day on chess at RHP.

I only have six games at once since Im not a premium member. But if i take about five minutes a move it works out to about a half hour everyday on rhp. which is probably too much anyway

you will probably see a huge rating drop after a few weeks of hundreds of moves each day.
If you think 5 minutes at every move it can save you from a lot of mistakes, but if you don't feel like thinking that long you can allways try blitz/lightning chess 😉

After your games are over, do you go over each of them and figure out your mistakes?

That's why few games are good. If you don't go over your games after, then whats the point?

With so many games going on, what if someone follows one of your games exactly which you lost, and since you don't realize it you play the same moves and lose again, over and over till you learn what the best move is.
