Over the last six months or so I have set out to find out who had the most active games at one time. I heard stories of up to 500, but no evidence. I know at least two players that reached near 350. Since it rained all day I decided to do something stupid and crazy. Now the hard work of making sure I don't miss a turn. Here are my present active games:

His active game total is 56% of my total games every played on the site total. I pretty much can't even begin to imagine taking that many turns, not quite sure how that could be classified as "fun" or "particularly bright". Nothing against HA, he's a good sort, just seems insane to me.

I had 100+ going once and it took over 2 hours per day to take my turns.
You must keep us updated if you have any time left in your 24 hours per day.
Give us a daily blog entry-hours per day, drinks per day, complaints per day from spouse-something.

He has lost his mind, but now that he has 700+ why not go for 1000 :D

A few of us have always suspected HA of being a sandwich short of a picnic basket.

Apparently we were wrong, the basket is officially empty! :lol:

You need a girlfriend, mate. Seriously to take that many goes in a day must at least waste 10hours + Goodluck with your life. You will infact probally have a stroke.

I have got up to around 200 games at once and that was way too much for me, over 700????? :shock: how much sleep you average per night? 3 hours? seriously, I never seen the likes of it.

I guess this means HA will be over at my house to use my faster computer. It will be like looking at a lump of crap for hours on my computer.

When I get something in my mind I am dangerous.

I have six hours until I miss-but I won't miss

I counted the games and I have 159 moves until the 7 hours slot--I just have to get them spread out some

I am just doing this one time and I will be back to 70 games by next week.(I like it there much better)

olkok is right--I need his fast PC--mine is way to slow--I can only do about 100 moves per hour.

Come on Blitz, it isn't like you to concede so easily. I was sure you would attempt to beat this.
This seems pretty unbeatable.

Dont worry about it. Your record is safe...for now. Im down to 30 active games and will be starting Operation " Private Games " very soon. This will be my attempt to making Conqueror for a 3rd time by inviting new players to my private games and using difficult maps and settings that I know they never played before.
