Congrats to balvan99 and ann67 for breaking the top movers record!  balvan99 is/was over 14,000 and ann67 is/was over 13,000 moves...  Amazing!

rednaz23: Unbelievable.
I thought I am crazy, but I never made it much over 1000.
14000 moves in a day means moving every 6 seconds for 24 hours, no breaks...

Aganju: He played just under 3,000 moves in the last 3 hours, I noticed his high move count 3 hours ago and made a note of where he was at.  That means in those 3 hours he did a move every ~3.5 seconds on average...  CRAZY FAST.  I think he could do 20,000 in a day if he set his mind to it!  I remember five and a half years ago people were amazed at Pedro for getting to 8,759 moves in a day...  then that sparked a race to the top from a number of folks in the following months...


In all reality, I think this a testiment of how much faster the site is today than it was five years ago!

rednaz23: not so sure its the site thats faster...though it seems to always work perfect in Prague...its one of the slower sites I use,personally. I would lean towards better personal equipment and inter net speeds.

Bwild:  I have been using the same laptop since 2004 (I do need a new one and occasionally use my wife's computer for playing - like now) and I feel that the site is noticeably faster...  but, yes, I agree with you it could be equipment and the internet speed as well.

rednaz23: I saw that a huge number of their games were Ludo, which doesn't always require too much thinking (to state it lightly).
Still, you have to sit all day and get rectangular eyes...

Aganju:
Some gammon games have autopass, Which I believe are are counted at moves towards your total, so you get a potential boost if you are stuck on the bar and have a fast opponent!

rednaz23: I was just noticing that. I recently started a bunch of games in an attempt to break 1000 moves for the achievement. Just 1000 seems like a big deal to me. Ann67 took some turns in a Dice Poker game against me as well - much slower to move than Ludo - so that makes it even more amazing.

rednaz23: Unbelievable ... should we make an achievement for 15000 moves a day?
