Title: 16-game simul
Post by Fritzlein on Dec 30th, 2006, 2:05pm
OK, I admit I've had some bad ideas in my time, but this was among the dippiest.  Sixteen simultaneous games is too many for the server to handle, and I won/lost all but three on time.  My apologies for disrupting everyone's server experience.

I think it was very bold and impressive even to try this.
Certainly not your fault when the server could not handle it ...

Your only fault here is to be so darn strong that you can even undertake such Hercules labor with very good chances of success.

Shame on you for that!

Hmmm...  It's hard to say what my chances would have been.  It basically would have been playing each game at blitz, and I'm not sure my brain and fingers can switch gears that fast.  It actually worked out perfectly that the server got overloaded, because that means everyone can assume I would have succeeded.  Thanks!  :)
