61 joins is a hard limit enforced by MySQL database language.  That said, if you are joining this many custom tables on an export, then congratulations to you for having the most custom data tables I have ever heard of!  ;D

I suggest breaking your export into two steps, exporting a few dozen tables, and then a few dozen more.  sort each exported file by participant_id and then copy and paste the tables together if the rows match up
