Over a hundred up here. Problems don't arise with my untill about 150 (and over) concurrent games. Seventy; that's easy managing...!

It's that 2005 championship I tell ya! It's like a drug that KILLS you! For example, I purposely resigned all my non tourney games, and strictly sticked to tournies to prepare for this, problem is, I am winning all my smaller tournies and I'm going to advance in round 2 of all of them, and personally I don't feel like throwing these tournies I worked hard at reaching round 2, in the ditch and simply resigning these games aswell. Round 1, 2005 championship, added 25 tourney games to my pool, and I had 25 tourney games going already, so now I have 50 tourney games going, even despite throwing out ALL my non tourney games. There's no possible way to escape a mass influx of games if you play the 2005, and the time controls are a little tighter then people think (it's sheer timebank, whole different scenario when it comes to time control, it's now a factor, unlike before) and may become a factor later on considering the sheer number of games.

yea...im usually quite anxious about timebank running down, so i get the feeling im gonna be having sleepless nights , just so i can preserve my timebank in all my games, until i finish all my games in this round! but i love the idea of no t/o...its great fun

Now I understand why you resigned all your games in the Xmas Grand III.

Between you doing that and me taking timeouts on some much higher rated oponents my rating is now a good 100-150 points higher than it should be.

Thanks...🙂

I had about 115 going at once and it proved too much to handle... especially considering that I had started all of them while unemployed, then got a frickin' job. Ended up getting burnt out and timed out almost all of 'em.

Took 8 months to come back and I'm at 45 games... probably about my max.

My hunch is that you wouldn't play more than SIX games at a time.
