      The second rule is that everyone is fighting for second, due to the guy named Carlsen winning all of the time. Sometimes he gets paid to throw and take 2nd or third

    I love the between-game clips, and I think more footage from the fan zone / pub would be a great addition--especially if any fans would like to share their thoughts / be interviewed. I bet lots of online viewers would love to hear from Eric, Aman, etc, along with random other fans.

      2:36:24 It was equal. But Wesley has 1 second left on the clock!! So he has to move, but he pushed his h pawn instead of putting his king to g5. He allowed Magnus to push his f pawn. One mistake, & it was over. That's the effect of time pressure, Wesley played perfectly but he had 1 second on the clock, & made a mistake.

    I've been following this event and I must say that chess is truly a remarkable game, not just in terms of strategy but also in spirit. The battles between great players like Magnus, Wesley, and others are not just a test of intellect, but also a lesson in patience, focus, and creativity. Each game is a treasure trove of valuable lessons and endless inspiration for both players and fans alike.
    I'm particularly impressed with the organization and production of this event. The between-game clips and post-game analyses are both engaging and educational. We get to enjoy not just top-level chess games but also learn from insightful analyses.
    Chess is more than just a game, it's a journey of self-improvement, a way of life. Let's share and spread this passion to everyone, so that chess continues to grow and become an integral part of global culture.

    Been watching every match every day, love it, so exciting! Thank you so much!
    One critique may be to brainstorm and diversify interview questions. A good rule of thumb may be to avoid asking questions which are repetitive or whose answers may be guessed with almost perfect accuracy. For instance, “what’s your plan with the white pieces?” Will inevitably evoke the answer, ‘I’ll try to win, but my exact opening is a secret.’ Asking “how do you feel?” After a loss is perhaps insensitive as well as evoking an easily guessable answer, “. As an interviewer one has an amazing opportunity to evoke special and insightful answers, and I am glad to see when pride is taken in selecting insightful questions.
    Thank you again so much for the awesome contentand production!

      Great points. I would hope the team strives for excellence and well-receives our suggestions -- which I am sure they will. This is a great opportunity to have input into what we are seeing -- which after all is a huge time commitment to watch the whole thing. I think the team and the production overall is excellent (after first couple of days of tech issues) and will become even better.

    By sometime before 1:00:00, both playes have been in severe time-trouble needing to likely play dozens of moves in a few minutes, but in a rare lapse by the team, it was not mentioned (unless I missed it) for quite a while. The board is certainly incredibly interesting but in light of the time, it changes the overall picture. What a game so far.

    I'm puzzled as to why Magnus and Wesley sometimes take so long to make "normal" opening moves...in a well-known position with little or no immediate risk! Wasting time on these "normal' opening moves means having that much LESS time later in the game...when time will be of the essence!
