I have become a chess book connoisseur. If you know of a good chess book please feel free to talk to me about it!
My USCF is 2000. My FIDE is 2000. My FICGS rating is 2100. My ICCF Rating is 2400. My ICC rating is 2300. My Netchess rating is 3000. My FICS rating is 2250. If ratings mean that much to you, you can now place me within the realm of your statistics!
"You know, when you achieve something in Norway, well, you're not supposed to get above yourself. This is especially big in my country, that you- how do I explain this? - that you're not supposed to think you're better than anyone else only because you had success in some field, and you will always find someone ready to point this out to you in Norway." - GM Magnus Carlsen
"Critics are men who watch a battle from a high place, then come down and shoot the survivors." - Ernest Hemingway

"When you have confidence, it is not that everything you do is 'right,' it is that you have less self doubts because you are inspired." - GM Dmitry Gurevich

Apr-06-23 Nepomniachtchi - Ding World Championship Match (2023)

parmetd: Yes but the title drama is a big issue. It adds an asterisk to this match and all that came after until the end of Magnus' life. It makes this match not interesting and I've never had less interest in a such an important event.

Aug-02-22 Chennai Olympiad (2022)

parmetd: No Naka, Anand, Firo, Topalov, MVL, Russia or China? This Olympiad must be missing the most top 100 players ever.

Jul-07-22 David Moody

parmetd: Sorry to hear of the passing of my favorite contributors. He was a good man. RIP.

Feb-15-22 Alexey Shirov

parmetd: <perfidious> this guy makes strange outlandish remarks on all sorts of people's pages.

Feb-14-22 Levon Aronian

parmetd: <Retireborn> No. Kamsky and Bu also won a match against Carlsen. All three won matches in the World Cup KO style in Classical Chess. Kamsky won a four game match in the semifinals while the other two won 2 game matches.

Feb-13-22 FIDE Grand Prix Berlin (2022)

parmetd: Well said <JustAnotherMaster>. The death of chessbomb has made it virtually impossible to follow chess. We had a golden era and now we are entering a new dark age for chess. RIP chessbomb.

Jan-27-22 Gibraltar International Chess Festival (2022)

parmetd: This doesn't look like Gibraltar Festival. Was the main event cancelled this year?

Jan-08-22 AlphaZero vs Stockfish, 2018

parmetd: Tpstar passed away?! That's the first time I am hearing of it. Uscf and fide down show him deceased either.

Dec-27-21 World Rapid Championship (2021)

parmetd: Or hear me out with an alternative explanation... It was rapid? They were low on time.

Dec-09-21 Carlsen - Nepomniachtchi World Championship Match (2021)

parmetd: 800k is the loser share of 2 Million euros before requisite taxes.
