I noticed.
Should Carlsen be given the title of Hyper-grandmaster?

Lol
I bet you did ... you notice the prologue, but never the theme! Sad! You talk of past events, fabelhaft - you may be a historian, but I like to look into the future! Knowing who won what doesn't make you a better chess player! I would challenge you to a game for a few lessons if you weren't so underrated!
no

Heavy-weight chess pieces, then?

I postulated the existence of a hypermaster somewhere in the universe in the group "Is there any chance that a 1300 rated player can beat a 2700 rated player"
"There is a chance that a child who has just learned to move the pieces around the board will beat Magnus Carlsen at chess - to deny this is to confuse improbable with impossible. It's really quite simple to calculate a ballpark probability if we make some broad, simplifying assumptions. For instance if we assume:
- There are on average 30 moves available to chose from in each position
- Only 1 of these moves is sufficient to keep the child from throwing the game away.
- The child is equally likely to pick any one of these 29 bad moves and 1 good one in each position
- The game lasts for 30 moves
- The child wins if he just so happens to pick the right move 30 times.
(these are just broad assumptions remember, don't go getting your knickers in a twist about them too much)
Then the probability of his winning amounts to 4.86 x 10^-45

That's 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000486 %
Perhaps you can imagine that I'm not using these odds to boost my chess ego and proclaim to all my friends how likely I would be to beat Carlsen in a game. The players would have to play consecutively for millions of years before we would have a reasonable chance of seeing the child win.

Who knows maybe somewhere in the universe, hypermaster Magnord Carlblorg is being beaten by a childling at the game of chexx (a game which happens to be identical in every way to our chess) at this very moment."
Hyper-super-grand-master sounds good to me... You can call me like that if you wish

Capablanca was..., then Fischer was...; who's next?
Carlsen, of course; but nothing's for certain!

Who are you rooting for in the WCC then?
Ohh.. Thats too difficult for me.. I respect Anand for his modesty more than his chess talent. I also feel that best player should win! Anand may surprize Carlsen. I don't know
I agree with you FanofCarlsen
Super Duper Grandmaster. or...... Grand, exalted, all powerful ruler of the universe. Yeah, maybe that. It's got a nice ring to it.
Super Duper Grandmaster! LOL.

Magnus poses for G-Star Raw.
Kasparov taunts Putin in public.
Magnus does not deserve any new title.
I don't know what you just wrote fabelhaft, but Carlsen has won the Candidates match, beating world-class players, like Kramnik, Topalov and Aronian, and will now face Anand for the Championship match! Deal with it! Do not dabble in history! Who ever wins will, temporarily, be the best and strongest player in the world! Simple logic! - I feel like I am talking to a chimp, though!
