Yeah man, the last script I published was the full story of Theoden! "A son of greater sires". Some lovely stuff in there, a lovely eulogy for Bernard Hill (actor for Theoden in the LOTR franchise) My fav video of mine is prob the difference between gandalf the white / gandalf the grey and "how sauron makes war".

That tournament was incredible to watch. Wei Yi pushing Cagnus Marlsen to the absolute brink.

I'll try and be nice here, but that was REALLY annoying that you did some clickbait making us wait until the very end of the video to learn something I already knew. I was hoping there would be something more "stratospheric" during the game. Please don't do that kind of clickbait just to get us to watch. I probably won't watch another of your videos because of it.

Vincent always falls for Cagnus' trap of queen exchange and heading toward an endgame where he literally have zero confidence to win.

How many times have these guys played chess? 10 thousand times? I wonder how much is memorization of patterns? To me white on top is a backwards display? To me

I don't really understand why Keymer keeps playing like this against Carlsen. Quickly trading on c6, then swap bishops and queens until you're worse as white.

.. Just my stoned Dutch brain wondering:. He's been the top-rated since 2010, lost it briefly, but since 2011 .. That's it. You think he can hold the highest rating till early 2031 (so for 20 years in total) .. ?? Or maybe even longer, say 2036?
