Speed Game Creation limit

[RoseThorn]

I just watched someone create about 50 doodle earth speed games... nobody can play that many, sorry but nobody. Is there any sort of limit on the amount of speed games someone can create at once?

I havn't heard of any... but thats pathetic.

Make an official suggestion in the Suggestions & Bug Reports forum. I agree with you, that is a little absurd.

A good guess would be that they are under the same constraint as all games are, i.e a max of 50 games waiting.

It sounds like a great way to loose points and ruin the flow in all other games for other players.
3-5 should be the maximum. any more and you are just playing the numbers game (of getting cards at the right time) and not bothering to learn how to improve your strategy.

Even 3-5 games can be too much to handle. Escpecially if they're 1v1. Generally, I try to avoid people who play more than 1 or 2 at a time, since I prefer my opponents to be paying attention to the game and taking their turns in a timely manner.

I agree totally, I can't handle more than 1 speed game at a time (albeit freestyle) and when I am playing someone that has more than 1 going they usually get owned because they arent paying attention.

I'd say a limit of 5 speed games at a time is perfectly enough for anyone, especially if they are 1 vs 1. Maybe 8 player would be different, and also freestyle should not be the same as seq. Lots of things to think about there...

Definitely. I only play sequential, but when I see an opponent is playing in a freestyle game at the same time, I know that they're likely to miss turns, and rush the ones they do take, since freestyle requires constant attention. Also, most of the players who will play too many games at once, are not the ones who can strategize properly with only a minute or so. I know I can't play my best unless I'm paying attention to everyone's moves. Sure, the people who over-extend themselves tend to be easier to beat, but I like quality opponents. I'd rather lose a great match to a worthy opponent, than beat a bunch of people who can't be bothered to focus on the game at hand.

so make 1 game Tim and send me the invite, or join my one.

I only play 1 speed game at a time because like Tim - I like to watch whats going on and not take too long in between games.

And this is one of the reasons why Pedro keeps getting invited to my private speed games.

You're keeping the other reason under your hat eh? (I always lose?)

[JACKAZZTJM]

a smart player who wants to win a speed game will play 1 at a time thats it

Creating too many speed games will just result in "accidental deadbeating".
