Just because the flights only require F1 availability doesn't mean you can override the routing rules in the fare (except maybe in an IRROPs situation). So, no, you can't just add whatever random segments you feel like. The flights still have to be a valid routing for your ticket.

I have done SDC 4x in one day due to changing personal emergency in 2014. No one had any issue. No problems. No questions.

I hava feeling that you don't understand what the OP wants to do. . . .

I think he wants to SDC from, lets say, SEA/JFK/BOS to

SEA/LAX/ATL/BOS

Then, when he gets to LAX, SDC to LAX/MSP/ATL/BOS

Then, when he gets to MSP, SDC to MSP/MIA/DTW/BOS . . . . . . . .

yes, is that possible?

since i don't think it still being restrict under the same routing rule since it SDC always override some of the routing rule like an exception policy almost

as long as it is a natural route that is possible in the flight schedule

i.e CVG-JFK
change to CVG-ATL-JFK

SDC does not override routing rules. They are still in effect. So no, this is not possible.

so if what i thought was if you SDC after you depart, SEA_LAX_BOS
after SEA_LAX change to LAX_SLC_BOS, since new ticket number and re-issue perhaps the 2 connections max will refresh the limit?

I would extremely doubt it.

Last week I did a SDC from an early morning flight to an afternoon flight. Later that day, I called to try to change it to something else, and the first thing the agent said was . . .

Oh, I see you already did an SDC this morning!

In your case above, sure, there'll be a new ticket number, but it'll still show the point of origin from the previous leg that you just flew.

I was already on nearly the last flight of the day. I wasn't going to make it, so I was trying to change it to the next day - - there's more to the story - not worth explaining. I ended up just not going . . . .

But, my point was, that, they can - and will - surely see that if you're flying from A - B - C, and you get off the plane at B, and NOW try to fly from B to X to C, they will surely see that your ticket is from A to C - period, and not allow it, unless there's something in the fare rules that allows this particular double connection.
