Multiple Tournaments

[JoAnneM]

This is a matter of curiosity for me as I have come across a player who routinely gets three ACBL scores within a five-six minute period. How is that possible? The name is the same, so can you log in on different devices and play three tournaments at once, like some chess players walking around a room? I am just thinking about the technical aspects, not the concentration required, which must be fierce.

Do you happen to know if the games this player is getting scores for are "Daylongs" ?

 

To answer your question, no you cannot log in three times with the same username and play in three different games. You can only log in once and play one game at a time.

I don’t know if they are Daylongs, but they are consistently right after 4AM so it could be something like that.

ACBL daylongs are all scored shortly after 5am Eastern time, so it does sound like it.

 

How are you seeing the time that they get these scores?
