We've been missing the Olympiad, fortunately, we took photos of EVERY SINGLE TEAM while they were at the board! As far we know no-one else has done that before. If you want to see all the photos you can go to chessfam.com/photos P.S. They are all free to download!

well, turlov was lying. these jobs were given out to people who were campaigning on turlov's behalf - there was never going to be an open application
Now FIDE President Timur Turlov @turlov @TurlovforChess promised pre-elections he would have an open application process for jobs in FIDE. What happened ?

I'm asking friends & colleagues for a one-time bit of support this year, as the cost of the daily medications I need for the treatment of my primary medical conditions has-despite all efforts-exceeded what I can afford. Paypal: [email protected] More details: facebook.com/mikhail.golubev…

every day there is a new guy failing to propose a better system than elo
Congrats for beating 1900, in the candidates we saw his real strength, Even in the esport world cup or scc. Elo system is shit, If Kasparov plays one game he is number 2 at 28+, what s the point ?

so you’re saying i need to assemble a team of idiots by this time next year
In the recently concluded European Club Cup, Dutch player Dick de Graaf became FM by scoring 5/7 on the 6th board. Alas, this is the result of a shameless abuse of FIDE's direct titles regulations, which demonstrates why they need to be changed. A thread! 1/17
