I Like Chess, but not as much as ice cream. I also like Woody Allen. Well, I never met him so I don't know about him as a person, but as a script and film maker.
I think I will claim time outs when or if they appear, unless you bribe me with ice cream.
For Tournaments here at RHP I prefer Octets and I try not to have more than approx. 20 games going on at the same time. That seems to be the limit my brain is able to cope with. I start loosing control if I play too many games simultaneously. I will however honour most challenges. I think I play the best in the aftermath of big tournaments that I can watch on chess24. I find inspiration in watching grand masters play.
Good luck Karjakin! Good luck Magnus!
Exciting championship in New York in November! But before that: Norway Chess and Sinquefield Cup. Great year!
