depends how active you'll be on this game. most premiums i think go for 10-15, but addicts might go for more :P

Depends

Post by Scarus »

It really depends on how many other things you have going on at the moment. I got up to about 30 games at a time, and then when things would come up, I found that I had a hard time keeping things going. I got to the point where if I would get too busy on any particular day that I might miss a turn or two. My winning percentage also went way down. Now I try to keep it down below fifteen games at a time, and when I get really busy, I try to keep it below ten.

I'm going out of town next week, so I'm trying to get down to zero so I can have a Risk free vacation....lol

Just as a word of warning, unless you let CC domintate your life, your play will suffer if you take on too many...

After getting premium, I was off work with a couple of cracked ribs and was joining games like it was going out of fashion.

Disaster.. lost more games than usual as i wasn't focused on certain games that were reaching the end.

Play as many as you like and see if its good for you, only you know how much is too much

It's not too many until you start making mistakes because you're rushing yourself through turns, or you start missing turns because you can't keep up.

If you can't handle 30 games at one time you're probably a successful person in life.

Or

"If you can't handle 30 games at one time you probably have a life."

Not sure the 'successful' bit comes into it, but maybe our definition of what constitutes a successful life is the source of the disagreement. Personally, I try not go over 15 active games, not because I am particuarly successful, but because I like entering a game and NOT thinking "where am I in this one again?"
