You should adopt the mannerisms of GM's. It is well known that Russian grandmasters ofter stare at the ceiling when it's their turn to move. I suggest ceiling-staring for Mondays.
I think you're confusing Ivanchuk for being a Russian. Ukrainians are still Ukrainians, for the time being.

Probably the most insightful post I've read for many weeks.

I have played chess on and off for years but am now getting really serious about it. How long is it until I become GM? I'm thinking two weeks ought to do it but my friend said no way. I think he's just jealous of my extreme talent, which has yet to show itself in any way, but it exists I swear.
Seriously though, look at my intense training schedule:
Monday: Play chess
Tuesday: Play chess
Wednesday: Bag off
Thursday: Kick myself for not playing on Wednesday
Friday: Drink and play chess
Saturday: Drink
Sunday: Rest day
With that much practice getting to super GM status in a month should be doable. You guys should totally agree with me.
Somebody tell Magnus he better start worrying.
Warning: this is funny, you should not take it seriously or get worked up about it in any way. Unless you're one of those people, in which case you should stop being one of those people.
Yeah, he better stop worrying! He always loses to 1523 rated players. If you study every day for 20 years you can become a GM. (Don't read the small text) I am almost a GM.
i study every day, why am i not a GM?
I am a GM already, Generally Mad.

Maybe you should try studying every other day.

I think your problem is that you only drink on Fridays and Saturdays.
My supposition is that you have a job, which effectively prevents you from boozing your way up to titled rank.
Lol
playing chess sober is very interesting. you first think about chess, and then your mind wanders. See, toronto's mayor, Rob Ford, would be great at chess.
Chess should be played the irish way, in pubs.
how about on top of the pubs?
too much rain and the players would slide off after about 11 pints.
i was thinking that they'd slip off after they dran 13, after all, it is an unlucky number.
oh yes, i knew i forgot to add something:
"give or take a few".
lol.
What an original thread... not trolling at all!
