I set my maximum number of games at 20, and I'm still playing in 41. My head starts swimming at 30.

Check out AWARDCHESS.  He has over 1,000 games in progress!!

dont know if I am now but I was up at 160 awhile ago some are finishing, that leaves me around 100 right now..........and I dont have thegab's luck I moved for half an hour once and when I stopped moving it was my turn in more games than before I started making moves, so I dont care for it that much I'm gonna probably stay under 50 once I get down there

That's gonna take a hell of a long time!lol Laughing

Let's see the leading players in chess.com list, most of them donot have many games in progress at any time.

In my opinion, it's good to allow time for thinking and enjoying beauty of games.

I don't have the time for 100 games.

I used to have 200 games going at another correspondence site but it proved to be too much (although I maintained it without timeouts for almost 6 months.)  I found that once I got to the 2000+ rating level it became too difficult to achieve positive overall results since many of my opponents at that level had on average 10 games max and would obviously be able to study the positions much longer.  Nowadays I like to keep my game count at around 30 maximum.

 Vow!! I hope to play maximum 30 games at a time .(I am 57 years old)

I also would struggle with 100 games, I generally keep it around 20. Awardchess...don't know how you keep up!

AWARDCHESS

And I played about 450 games at another famous site for last two months... No timeout...

I just prepared to my return to active play! So, it is just a real hard study drills for me!

I am a fast thinker and decision maker! It is not too good for best score results, but I am more interested in joy and study, plus some good results.

 Playing 1,000+ is a handicap playing! My opponents has a tremendous time edge over me! So, it is my self challenging to hold the games! And Win the Games!

I think you should check Guinness World Records, maybe they have a spot for you.

I think that he should drink more Guinness!

I do around 70 games on par at the moment, and that is plenty enough.
