Nov-12-15 | | notyetagm: First! |
|

 | | Domdaniel: <notyeta> Er, saying "First!" is, like, a 2011 meme. Are you being consciously retro? If not, it's the posting equivalent of the Jerome Gambit. |
|
Nov-13-15 | | notyetagm: <Domdaniel: <notyeta> Er, saying "First!" is, like, a 2011 meme. Are you being consciously retro?> Sorry, I just cannot resist saying First! in an empty, pristine, virginal forum. |
|
Nov-13-15 | | waustad: I see that Anna Muzychuk was forfeited since the sisters didn't make their connection to Iceland. Is something like that what happened to Anne Haast too? |
|

 | | Domdaniel: <notyetagm> That's fine. If it turns you on, then keep on keeping on... |

|
Nov-17-15 | | virginmind: Romanian team has 3.5/4 so far, but today they face Ukraine. |
|
Nov-17-15 | | galdur: Svidler - Mamedyarov managed to waste 90 minutes on some computer line. They should have just whipped it out quickly and agreed the draw at 15:02, Greenwich Mean Time. |
|
Nov-17-15 | | galdur: Aw Shucks, I´m in the ladies room. It was an honest mistake. I do apologize. |
|
Nov-19-15 | | waustad: With another win today, Anna-Christina Kopinits is at +4. |
|
Nov-19-15 | | nok: Thank you for this vital piece of news. |
|
Nov-20-15 | | Mr. V: Muzychuk has really picked it up since she won the championship. If it weren't for her loss to Hou Yifan in Monaco, I'd say she has good chances in the match. But that one game was such a blemish on the record. Anyone have any predictions? |
|
Nov-20-15 | | Dr. Overlord: <Anyone have any predictions?> I predict Britain to leave the Eurozone. The UK house bubble to crash. And <nok> to continue being a jerk. Heheheheh. |
|
Nov-21-15 | | detritus: I don't think Mariya will beat Hou Yifan in March, but if she played a match against Carlsen right now, she might win. She is definitely having a better tournament than he is. |
|
Nov-22-15 | | Mr. V: Wow Gunina is all decisive games so far |
|
Nov-22-15 | | waustad: The Austrian women performed better than anybody could have expected. They ended by beating Armenia and then tying with Georgia. Veronika Exler and Tina Kopinits both achieved norms. |
|
Nov-22-15 | | Karposian: <waustad> That is quite an impressive feat given that they played without their best player, Eva Moser. With her on the team they could actually have won a medal, I think. |
|
Nov-22-15 | | sonia91: Congratulations to the Russian team!
This year Russia took double gold (men's and women's), last time was in 2007. Podium of the women's section:
1. Russia
2. Ukraine
3. Georgia |
|
Nov-22-15 | | siggemannen: Great run for Goryachkina here as well as Maria Muzhichuk |
|
Nov-22-15
 | | HeMateMe: <Anyone have any predictions?> I think England will waste even more money trying to be an actor on the world stage by committing more troops and air warfare against ISIS and Syria, where frankly, they have no interest. They would do better to use the Royal Navy to patrol the Mediterranean Sea and turn back every refugee vessel before it can reach Europe. |

 | | alexmagnus: <I don't think Mariya will beat Hou Yifan in March, but if she played a match against Carlsen right now, she might win. She is definitely having a better tournament than he is.> Hehe, if we go by TPR in this tournament, yes (MM 2772, MC 2670). By the way, MM is now number 3 live - behind only Hou and Humpy, with the distance to Humpy being only 22 points. |
|
Nov-23-15
 | | HeMateMe: I think MM will play better than Humpy and the last victim did, but the Wall of China still looks formidable. |

Nov-23-15 | | sonia91: Here the individual board medals of women's ETCC 2015: http://etcc2015.com/wp-content/uplo... |
|
Nov-23-15 | | waustad: <Karposian> Eva Moser hasn't played a rated game in over 6 months, though she's listed as being a player in two leagues. I hope she starts playing some more since I enjoy her games. I wonder if they'll ever field the 3 ladies from Wien and the two from Graz. |
