In Response To: 120 Hours of Non-Stop Backgammon (Casper van der Tak)

Is there any record available for playing simultaneous blindfold backgammon (not necessarily in terms of hours, but number of games)?

IF NOT, what is that indicative of? Playing blindfold backgammon is intrinsically more difficult than, say, blindfold chess of checkers, or there just is not similar tradition, or both? How many games should one be capable of playing simultaneously blindfolded to be considered of record calibre? Would DMPs count or should they be matches? (To my knowledge there at least is not any Guinness record precedent for this.)
