Default Quasi OT: who\'s in the most games?

Ok...so here's a question: who's in the most games? Also...I wonder what the average number of games, as well as the mode, etc...is

I'll start: I'm in 9 games (but one I'm only the host, so I guess it's really 8 games)

Just curious, really...

I have been in as many as 18 at one time, but have trimmed that back to 7 at the moment.

I was in 25 at one point... Several were really slow or inactive for various reasons, but still... Down to 2 now.

Figures are irrelevant: it is all about size. In the case of games anyway.

I was at most at fifteen games or so while being in high school, but oddly enough I am playing in fewer games now than I am in university (where I work twice as less). I am currently down to eight games, none of them too big, and I would still like to get out of a few more games.

Still, I would expect those monster Empires to be much more taxing than having slow-paced games only taking a couple of minutes per turn. One player claimed he needed seven hours to play his turn (Huletians in NGC5), with an Empire heavy on micromanaging, and from what I saw, he was about right. A few hours on a single game, every three days. *Shudders*

Size matters, huh Al?

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

Heh, I was waiting to see how much time would be needed before someone took that bait. Of course, I was merely talking about Space Empires, where size is quite important. I wouldn't have any other thought about this matter. *Coughs*

Renegade 13 is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Quasi OT: who\'s in the most games?

Hmmm, looks like I'm the leader currently, with my 13. Does anyone have more than that at this time? I wanna be the leader! Ahem, anyways here's the list of all the games I'm playing (all are active, having at the least 2 turns per week)

Just in case you're wondering, the only reason I'm in 2 Race to SEV games is because I'm filling in as a replacement player in both of them.

- (Nearly Gods) The Conflict 5
- Final STM MOD
- K.O.T.H. Warlord Ragnarok vs Renegade 13
- n00bz in Space
- Newbies 102
- Puke's Furball VI
- Return to Hell 2
- RTV Osshod Game
- RTV Tudran Game
- Shattered Hopes
- STAR TREK : Quandrants of Conflict
- The Great Experiment III
- Zeta 2: The Great Sign

Well, I have 16 Renegade, so I am the leader. What, games you only host do not count? So annoying. But you are only playing in two different RTV games Renegade: would you say "no" to playing in a third one?
