To be fair, this is about June 2025, so they still have some 15 months to accomplish it all. /s

Not the topic of this thread, but the new app is in development. There's a Lichess team for beta testers.

 

What do you all think?

How much does that cost?

A Nokia 3330 if I remember correctly.

Most people I know hate it, but I absolutely love the feeling of a fly crawling on my arms or legs. It gives me this wonderful comfortable tingling sensation and I can't get enough of it.

Even if AI did make psychology redundant in a couple of years (which I'd bet my favourite blanket it won't), what are the alternatives? If AI can take over a field that is focused more than most others on human interaction, personal privacy, thoughts, feelings, and individual perceptions, then it can take over almost any other field before that. So you might as well go for it while you can.

Yup, that's me, too.

There's no Offerspill here. This championship only features national federations, so Carlsen is playing for the Norwegian team together with other Norwegian players. And they're very unlikely to win after one draw and one loss in the first two rounds.

...aaaand big upset already in the first round with Denmark (20th seed) beating Azerbaijan! Radjabov, Mamedov and Abasov all went into quick draws (maybe thinking that Mamedyarov was about to win). But Mamedyarov misplayed his attack and went on to lose vs. Mads Andersen.

 

The ETCC 2023 started today in Budva, Montenegro. It's a 9 round Swiss team event with some 36 federations taking part. Top seeds are Azerbaijan for the Open section and Georgia for the Women's section. Results and pairings can be found here (Open) and here (Women).

Seeing how this community isn't super active, maybe we can use this as a megathread for the event. Who are your favourite teams and players? Who do you predict will win?
