limits on ICC history database
I have noticed the same limitation after 80-100 game downloads. I *kind of*
understand the necessity to restrict game downloads so it won't bog down the
server -- but doing it for histories seems a little bit paranoid, especially
as few as 100.
ICC has this incredible resource -- millions of FM/IM/GM games where titled
players try out new ideas. Also a ton of games where a titled player plays
an untitled player. These kinds of games are enormously instructive for
most patzers. But YOU CAN'T GET AT THEM! ICC puts so many limits on its
search and download capabilities that this resource is virtually unusable.
Seems such a waste.
