I know, the title seems a little Off-Topic of what I'm going to write about, but here it is. 

WE ALL KNOW THE CARLSEN-CARUANA MATCH IS BORING.

Yes, it is! We're into tiebreaks and on the 12th game (correct me if I'm wrong) Carlsen had an advantage but still drew.

I mean, come on people! This wcc has become too boring for us for 12 straight draws. I mean don't we deserve better action than this?

You realize that the Computer Chess Championship set up the game-12 final position, and Stockfish was unable to win it as Black, even when playing against a program that it usually defeated?

Everybody seems convinced that they understand the position better than Magnus did...

Magnus isn't required to play the gallery. That sort of crap went out in the nineteenth century.

When did Fischer ever play the gallery? Are you even acquainted with the term?

I will agree that Magnus' decision wasn't entertaining for the spectators... that's not his job.

If you want entertainment for casual spectators... hire a clown.

you see Magnus has to play 15 20 moves to see its draw. next generation championship will have to play 0 moves to know that....

even if he did understand it as a draw. why would he not try to play it out with Caruana under time pressure . Caruana isn't a computer he could have very well messed up...

He's just commenting. He's not insulting anyone or anything. And your comment wasn't really the most productive either.........and to make mine productive......................If you don't have something nice to say don't say anything at all. 

FatherNerd

um I don't think he is a wayward sinner....

FatherNerd

He was just saying he has seen more than 50. There is no problem in that.

 

FatherNerd

How do you know he was just trying to be obstinate and values hyperbole over honesty?

FatherNerd

He wasn't even being stubborn or trying to persuade anything.

You people are wasting your time. This is just another YGNR trolling alt.
