No. I would have no idea. I assume not but how can you prove otherwise. A record has to be verifiable if you are going to call it a record.

are you saying 2 players are taking his turns ?


Yeah speell this out for me. Because Im interested in how HA could be "too dumb " to cheat and above reproach. And How basically my woman could take turns for me while im asleep and how exactly is blitz going to come to my house. And why not do it for any of the other records in this thread. I smell sour apples.

Once I lost the record and then I missed 12-15 turns by passing out on the floor from exhaustion, the record did not mean much for me. I spent a lot of time with my son over the weekend and AofN beat my record. I also believe AofN has been playing all his moves and has not missed a turn as of yet. He may hit the wall soon though as it is truly mentally exhausting to do this.

AoN is missing a lot of turns now I believe--He has hit the wall. The mental anguish this causes is unreal. He is under 400 points and dropping. I feel bad for him. I am over the wall now and coming down. I should be at 300 games by this weekend.

What is the point of having the most games at once, if you are going to miss or not play all the turns yourself?

a- highlander shares his turns with other people who sub for him taking turns. So what's the achievement of that? and which games can you then trully count as the MAX games.

b- AON misses a bunch of turns and gets down to a score of 400. what is the achievement of that and can you count all the games?

its nice and all that they started around 1250 games, but trully how many of those can you really count?

my point being...the rules for this record are so miscellaneous that anybody who sets up more games wins. There need to be some restraints to the counting or there is no sense of having a listing of these records at all.

hmmm, you make a good point. What do you think is a solution? Count them if they do not miss a lot of turns?

I agree to a point--but you really did not follow my posts very well. Once my record was beat it did not have much meaning at all. I ended up passing out from exhaustion one night and missed 12-15 turns.

Prior to those two things happening I had taken all my turns and did not miss a turn. Once I was beat and had missed turns I decided to spend the day with my son and chose to miss more turns and asked a few friends to take turns for me. If I actually had the record I would have made all those turns, but since I lost the record to AoN it really was no longer important to me. One day maybe I will try and make a real record again. At this point the 1250 do not have the same meaning that they would have if I had not passed out the one night and if AoN had not beaten me.

highlander, i agree with you that it was an interesting feat (also pretty darn good as you are maintaining rank pretty well) and yes i have followed both your threads and trully believe you both where planning on completing the games correctly, but saddly this did not happen. so i think you cannot really count all of them towards the record.

i think the rules to counting these games would have to be at the very minimun
games that are withought
-a missed turn
-or turns played by someone else (going back to the point of uncle death, dont know if this is possible to check if somebody has not stated it in the chat??)

yes this means a shitload of counting and checking games ;) but it is the only way this record can be kept clean from abuse in the future to come.

I missed 27 turns, alarm clock didnt wake me up, was on a lot of painkillers. Score fluctuates. Every day after I go to sleep, people take turns, I lose games. Wake up a cook. By the end of the day I usually hit teniente at least once.

btw, this constitutes as maybe .1 % of turns total missed... so mr "Jaimito" you find that an abnormal miss rate on the high side? This record counts damn it.

Sounds good to me

Not sure I will get another chance to go for this any time soon, but when I do I will make sure not to miss and not to have anyone take my turns. I would not have had others take my turns if AoN had not beat me. I am ready for a break from CC that is for sure.

thats ridiculous. HA we both completed all of these games at a higher turn's taken percentage than in our previous CC career total. Another hater... someone jsut sitting back taking cheapshots while they do nothing but read, and not take on a challenge of their own. My turn percentage has actually gone up.

I'm not sure if you think I was a hater for pointing out that it would be impossible to state that the record was for most games played at once without it being possible to verify that only one player was doing it. For the record, I think you and HA were playing all your games by yourself until exhaustion set in and you were already below the peak totals. That was an achievement and remarkable for HA especially since he kept his rank up. It's quite an endurance test.

See, this is where you lose me.

Before this all started, HA had a high rank (which went slightly down) and AoN had a low rank (which went slightly down). I don't mean offense to AoN in this next statement, but you are mistaking him for a high-ranking player. He was never much more than a Cadet in the first place.

no offense. I never get mad at people for when they are honest. Yeah im just a CC terminator backroom brawler. My rank has always fluctuated, not much unlike right now. I believe that even if I doubled the time I spent in all the games that they would have differed much in outcome.

I can tell you this much--I have been getting to 2400+ points at night and when I wake up 1700 and 1900 last two days. Drops and gains of 700 points in a few hours--crazy--I am down to 400 games so this craziness is almost over.

How do you suggest I do a 1st 5?

1st 5 with most active games at one time? That does not make much sense and no one would know of that info.?

or perhaps you mean 1st 5 to play 200+ games? I have a pretty good idea of that.
