Regarding allegations that I helped Magnus Carlsen cheat

As some of you may already know, lately there have been allegations circling around that I helped Magnus Carlsen cheat in the most recent WCC by telling him what moves to play through a hidden earpiece that he wore during the match. While I initially did not deem them worthy of a response, lately these allegations have been spreading so quickly among gullible members of the public that I have no choice but to address them. I vehemently deny these unfounded charges, which are not only completely false, but also an insult to my honor and that of Mr. Carlsen. I have always conducted my self in accordance with the highest ethical standards, and the sort of behavior of which I am accused is below my dignity. I have never cheated in a chess game or any other kind of competition, nor have I aided or abetted others in any sort of activity that may reasonably be construed as cheating. Therefore I hope that all who come across the accusations against me realize that they are false, and that soon they will die out. Should anyone continue to knowingly circulate these false charges in the future, I may have no choice but to resort to legal action.

He was calling me for advice every night during the match. I told him over and over "when are you playing the KG, you sissie?!"

The only source reporting these allegations was CNN. CNN sucks!

Indeed, the Chess.com News Network has been very unfair to me. But what else can you expect from a publication that constantly runs fake news articles like this one:

This new scandal, along with Bikinigate, has destroyed macer's reputation. Now he is no longer a worthy Chess Troll Champion.

People should give me more credit for exposing Macer.

Neither of these is a real scandal! Bikinigate simply showed that I like looking at pictures of women in bikinis. This new scandal shows nothing, because it is 100% fabricated! Neither incident will harm my reputation in any way whatsoever in the eyes of reasonable people.

You're polling favorability is at 40% right now and you don't even take the office of Chess Troll Emperor until two days from now!

Most of the time, said women do not enjoy being in bikinis, but rather do it because people, like Macer here, will only appreciate them so.

In one game, you were heard doing horse noises and you trotted behind Magnus while dropping rolled up socks from the rear.. That was the crucial information that Magnus needed to gain the winning advantage.

Later that night a note was found which reads:

Magnus "Nxg4" from your friend Macer

I wonder if Magnus cheated in the 2021 championship? He changed his game strategy in the middle of the games.

He didn’t, how could he cheat in OTB
