Hit 100 solder joints on a single repair board today. Lost count at 87.

I was fixing an old Logitech mouse, the G502, where the left click was double clicking. Replaced the microswitch but had to redo it 3 times because the pads lifted. By the time I got it right, I must have touched each of the 6 pins like 15 times. Counted 102 solder points after I cleaned up. Never thought I'd track that, but it made me realize how sloppy my iron was getting. Anybody else keep a tally when you're fighting a sketchy PCB?

Sounds about right for a G502.
