How many casual games do you guys regularly have going at once?

I want to be able to play for about 1-2 hrs a day I guess, give or take.

I usually have 30-50 games going at once.
On long breaks from school, I bring that up to about 80 ( sometimes even 90 ) at once.

It all depends what you like. All mine are sequential games, so it limits how many turns I play.

My suggestion for you is to start out small. maybe only 10-20. If that isn't enough, add another 10 games. Keep adding until you hit a good number that works for you.

It pretty much depends on how much free time you have and what game type you play. I wouldn't reccomend anything over 40 freestyle games, cause that would be a guranteed 40 turns every day. might be too much for you, might not. I know 40 turns takes me a while.

Even with 90+ Sequential games, I only had around 35 turns to take on any given day. You can have many more sequential games than freestyle, and they still give you the same amount of turns to play each day.

So, just start small. add a few games every day, until you hit a number that is good for you. If you are going to have a lot of games, make sure you can be on here two or three times a day to take your turns. It gets really easy to miss turns in your games if you are only on for the same 1 hour every day.

what he said above is great advice but you also need to keep in mind that turns in 3 or 4 player games will come around much more often than those in 8 player games.

so start small and add.
