New Record For Active Games!

by **Qwert** on Tue Jan 04, 2011 3:11 pm

well primarly target its 1300 active games,and if everything coordinate in these way,he will manage to hit 1300 games in first 20 hours,and after that its hard to expect,that he can play withouth miss turns, these is same hepend in other attempt where player manage to play over 1200 active games(well these is mine oppinion)
I just hope that he stay mentaly healty after these combat operation(remind me in hundred days operation in WWI).

Okay, I am ready to go. I have 60 active games and 50 waiting. They should all/mostly fill up by Friday. That will put me just over 100 games. Plus the 1190 challenge games will put me at 1290. I will throw out some random 1v1s to get up to 1300 if need be. So I am going to go over this one more time for clarity.

BUMP

I need some more players on the random games in the original post.

You will be recognized upon completion of this challenge! Thanks!

by **jigger1986** on Tue Jan 04, 2011 6:16 pm

You are insane for doing this, and if you pull it off, Im going for 1500 next week.

I didn't realize they were random games. Random games are what I do! I'm in.

Luxembourg is a good map for a lot of games.

Yes, but I am filling in the holes with WWII Poland. Much simpler map for quick turns IMHO.

maybe do some escalating terminator // fog // i like them feudal epic // watterloo //world 2 on large map 7 players so u can have some time to play them

by **mviola** on Wed Jan 05, 2011 12:54 am

I know it's not much but I'll do 10 random 1 v 1s with you. 3 flat rate, 3 escalating, 2 no spoils, 2 nuclear. All seq, auto, sunny, chained. And I'll create the games for you.

by **theherkman** on Wed Jan 05, 2011 1:08 am

Thanks for the input guys, but I have finished accepting any more games.

by **JOHNNYROCKET24** on Wed Jan 05, 2011 1:56 pm

Nope. That's why I'm doing it.

1. Army of nobunaga 1282
2. Highlanderattack 1250
3. Heatz 843
4. Hotdoggie 430
5. Shoop76 330

I did not miss but like 20-30 turns in about 10000 turns... I think its valid HA. what is that a 1% missed turn rate or less?

1) the problem is filling the games. That is the problem.
2) the other problem is the first day or 2 is ok... especially if you are young. Its when you have over 1000 and you literally spend 18-19 hours a day constantly taking turns... around the third or 4th day.
3) i think the record is very beatable and i wish you a ton of good will. I do think that at about 1400 games it becomes impossible for one man to do.

Keep in mind aon's advice herk

by **theherkman** on Wed Jan 05, 2011 4:02 pm

I will... Lol... I have 100+ active and a few that will fill. Basically most of my games are coming from the challenges I have set up.

Which space map? Lunar Wars? Either way is fine.

What I need you all to do is create the games as private and pw protected. Then create autojoin links for these games and send them to me via pm. This will help me monumentally. I will join all games on Thursday or Friday. If you send them on Thursday I will join early so they won't be clogging up your games either.

games made invites sent have fun

That's already too many for most people to handle, and he'll be at more than 7 times that figure when this peaks in the next couple of days.

GL for our games, and I would suggest going as fast as possible with the early games - once you reach the record 1300, you won't want to stay at that level for very long, so some quick turns now could pay off.

by **HighlanderAttack** on Thu Jan 06, 2011 12:35 pm

498 active right now--let the fun begin--lol--I hope you have the 18+ hours available for the next ten days.

Please be honest and let us know if you miss any turns--I will be watching your rank drop
