Re: How many SEIV games is enough?
I think the Fyron guy holds the record for the most games at one time. He made a thread about it a while back, but I forget how many games he was actually in at the time. Somthing like 20.

Re: How many SEIV games is enough?
Right now I am playing 14 and running 4.
Record play was 22 by me... It was too much...
( I think that 8 games is good if there at a 2 day clip plus a koth game )
I enjoy running games. And making maps for people.

I'm pretty sure Fyron beat that mark. I think he at least was in 23 at the time. He'll have to let us know for sure but that's what I seem to recall hearing.

Re: How many SEIV games is enough?
so, how do you get through the turns fast? i normally take 2 to 30 minutes from start to 'i know i can win', which is when i normally get bored and quit. but, the only times i visit all my planets in one turn is when i get computers 3. the rest of the time, if it doesn't come up as a subject in the log or a triangle on the map i ignore it.

Re: How many SEIV games is enough?
I was in 26 games at one point. They weren't all active games, but most were.  I have cut back recently though, mostly do to the fact that se4 has gotten repetitive.

Re: How many SEIV games is enough?
you could always make a util to randomly change component and facil values while your playing.

Re: How many SEIV games is enough?
I save my races... and use them in the next game.... I have 4 standard races a 2k, 3k, 5k and a koth one.
I save them at the end of a game with all the ships and build ques etc...
Then I just tweek them for games as needed...
That helps... ( And the ship libary is quite huge , as is the planet build que list )
Then I just automate as much as possible and pretend I know what is going on with the RP and treaties.... ( some times i get mixed up... as some posters here can tell you ... I am sure they do it as well.... I once declared war on Nodachi in 4 games in 2 days he he.... )
