IkeBrofolski is playing too many games - can't see the point - he's CampbellMarcel MkII ...

How can ANYONE play 870 games - and yet he hasn't been on here for a week and I've just claimed a game from him (in which he was up). Doesn't make sense. Also, he never replies back if you do an in-game message - strange.

How can 50 be to low??? If you spend 10 on average minutes on the move, that's 500 minutes (let's say a week), an hour every day ... and if you have some other obligations in life ... And not to mention "what was my idea when I made that move" among 50 running games...
For me 15 games is top ... and everything over 10 in too much :)
And if you don't use 10 minutes average on the move, I don't see the point of playing correspondence ... :)

[How can fifty be too low?]
I'm not doubting your figures, or whether CC players need to get a life :-) , but I've played several players here who are playing 100 or so games without there being any problems.

I think I can handle about 1500 games,since I average about 120-150 moves an hour,needing only 2 hours a day,5-6 days a week to complete a whole'round',but I 'd usuallly be playing the first page,getting caught in live battles which took a bit longer than that ;-)

And some people can reasonably make that level of commitment to the site. I think fifty games is too low to impose as a limit -- there are plenty of people who are happily playing between fifty and a hundred games simultaneously who shouldn't be forbidden from joining tournaments. On the other hand, I don't think there are that many playing more than a hundred simultaneously.

Yes, for me, anything over than twenty is definitely too many. But that's for me. Other people have other limits and they should be free to do as they please.
