Fifteen is insane! He couldn't find one out of 15 to at least work from!? That is perfectionism.
The most I'll ever do in a single round is three (I figure even then two of them are destined to be a waste of the time). If they want to go through a few rounds of that, it's fine with me--at least it's moving in a single direction.
Or how about when you design to your contact's taste, they love it, then they take it to the person/people who ACTUALLY make the decision (unbeknownst to you) and it all has to be redone. Luckily for me, every time this has happened, it been on projects paying by the hour for clients with deep pockets. Still frustrating, though.
