how many correspondence games do you feel comfortable playing?

correspondence chess is a tough format and many can get snowed under by taking on too many games , what is your preferred number of games at once ?
mine is six , but ive gone as high as 50

yeah thats a good amount knight , more chance for quality not quantity chess
I'd honestly would like a format where you need to make a move within 24h but you only have 5min per move to think about it. Meaning that as soon as you view what move your opponent made a clock starts ticking and you have to do your move within 5min. Otherwise people may spend 1day on what move to make (which I guess is the point of correspondence chess but this alternate format would have the advantage of correspondence chess but still limited thinking time).
I usually play normally 2 games so that I remember the present and future variations to play in which game.....
For me, usually one. I might try to start an additional one if the first is past the opening phase, but usually I'm happier just thinking about the one. I imagine I'll enjoy more at the same time as I learn more about chess
