At the end of the day it's just very impressive for @lachesisq to have reached 8.5 points seven minutes into the 12th round, the winning score in four of the last five #FIDECandidates after 14 rounds. 👏

The FIDE General Assembly has voted 108:27 in favor of allowing the FIDE President to stay in power indefinitely. In 2018 Arkady Dvorkovich campaigned on a 2-term limit (which would end in 2 years) being essential. More details:

We will see the fifth tiebreak in world chess championship history after 2006 (Kramnik-Topalov), 2012 (Anand-Gelfand), 2016 (Carlsen-Karjakin), and 2018 (Carlsen-Caruana). I used to be strongly against rapid/blitz to decide a classical title but now only mildly! #NepoDing

Besides this being the most silly claim ever, what mostly surprises me in such situations is that the arbiter starts a whole conversation while another game is taking place right next to them. Step one is to take them aside and discuss properly, I'd say. #rapidblitz

Been going through the @NewInChess archives in the past few months for research. Gotta say this cover with @GMJuditPolgar is still my favorite after all those years!
